Philippines

Chalice has been serving children in the Philippines since 1999 in four sites in both rural and urban communities.

It is difficult for many children to attend school, because public schools are poorly funded and teachers are often under-qualified. The two most urgent issues of children’s health is stunting, which is caused by poor fetal development, and malnutrition. Anemia and dental health are also of major concern. Internal political disruption and civil armed conflict have kept communities in conditions of extreme poverty and prevented large populations of children from attending school. Families in urban settings typically construct their homes in “squatter” conditions, and rural families are very vulnerable to extreme weather and natural disasters, especially typhoons, floods and mudslides.

Through the support of sponsors and donors, Chalice and our local partners focus on:
  1. Education - Ensuring each child completes their education until high school graduation, at a minimum.  Our sites places special emphasis on providing access to education to children of marginalized groups.
  2. Nutrition - Our partners ensure children have balanced, nutrient-rich diets by implementing school feeding programs through the support of the Chalice Nutrition Program.
  3. Resilience - Bolstering parents’ abilities to generate income and take leadership in their communities, as well as building physical infrastructure before and after extreme weather events and natural disasters.
Our Philippine sites:

Bulacan - Chalice has partnered with the Bulacan Diocese, near Manila, since 1999.  Leila Fernando-Tolosa directs the sponsorship program from Bethlehem House of Bread, a home for orphaned, abandoned and abused children. The site works to create opportunities for families, especially women, to generate family income. The site aims to empower parents and youth to become decision-makers and leaders in their communities.
 
Samar - This NGO is associated with the Diocese of Catarman. Maricel A. Abangan oversees the sponsorship program. With the support of the Chalice Children Nutrition Program, the Liceo de Bethlehem of Samar elementary school runs a school feeding program for more than 350 children. Children participate in regular activities and seminars teaching them about healthy and active living. 

Tondo - Chalice has partnered with BYSMP Bless the Children Foundation Inc., in the densely-populated Manila slum region since 2014. Eunice Cheng-Chua oversees the sponsorship program which runs through the school year and has summer activities for the children. The site provides regular daily meals, supported by the Chalice Nutrition program, as well as supplemental nutrition to anemic and vitamin-deficient children.  In addition to sponsorship, the site provides extra-curricular activities in arts, dance and music, and remedial tutoring in Math and English. The site conducts awareness programs such as prevention of violence against women and children, children's rights, hygiene, and parenting skills. They also provide vocational skills training for parents. The site has a regular dental program for sponsored children and their siblings and this year, there are plans to include parents in the program.

Haiti

Chalice has been serving children in Haiti since 1999 in two sites in both urban and rural communities.  We have been able to see the long-term impacts of our decades of work, as well as provide immediate disaster relief in the wake of the 2010 earthquake and Hurricane Matthew in 2016.

For families who cannot afford private education for their children, access to quality education is nearly impossible. Public schools are under-resourced, and some parents are mistrustful of the role of education for their children. In the communities where Chalice works, there is a severe lack of adequate housing.  Rates of food insecurity are high and malnutrition is endemic among the children. Parents struggle with high rates of unemployment.

Through the support of sponsors and donors, Chalice and our local partners focus on:
  1. Education – Ensuring each child completes their education until high school graduation, at a minimum. We  assist families to afford schools fees, books, uniforms and other necessary materials, and work to instruct parents on the importance of education.
  2. Nutrition – Our partners ensure children have balanced, nutrient –rich diets by implementing school feeding programs through the support of the Chalice Children Nutrition Program.
  3. Livelihood -  providing opportunities for parents to find work or begin their own income-generating projects
Our sites in Haiti:

Haiti North -  Chalice sponsorship began in the communities of Terrier-Rouge and Grand-Bassin in 1999. Chalice is partnered with Haiti Nord under the direction of Edley Gabeau. There are currently over 1,700 sponsored beneficiaries. Children in schools benefit from a feeding program supported by the Challce Nutrition Fund. The site conducts health assessments for the children and monitors their development, and provides workshops for parent groups on the importance of nutrition. The site runs a successful community poultry cooperative program. 


Haiti South – Chalice is partnered with the Missionaries of the Anunciation - Sowers of Hope - in the communities around the city of Jérémie under the direction of Br. Marcelin Henri. The site consists of five sub-sites. Several school canteens receive support through the Chalice Children Nutrition Program. In schools that do not have a canteen, families receive kits of food to prepare at home. Members of the staff work with four nurses who deliver training to families on disease prevention (typhoid, malaria, HIV/AIDS), hygiene and balanced nutrition. In the wake of the 2010 earthquake and Hurricane Matthew in 2016, Chalice supported several reconstruction projects throughout the area.

Saint Dominique - Chalice is partnered with Fondation Montesinos in the area of Titanyen near Port au Prince. The site supports an orphanage that houses 85 children and sponsors children who attend Institution Saint Dominique. Our site director is Wendell Jn. Emmannuel Alphonse.
