A busy but rewarding year
Floods
After experiencing 3 severe floods this year, there was
much work to be done on the canteen and learning
centre. We repaired fences, the roof, drains and cleaned
up other water damage within the buildings.
It’s amazing how resilient Cararoo parents are. It makes
us more determined than ever to provide the children
with an education which will secure a better future for
them.
But …… life goes on
Livelihood Project
In July the mothers of Cararoo engaged in a special
project - decorating the traditional Anahaw fans with
ribbons, laces and patches. The project was called
‘Pamaypay ni Inay’. The first batch 0f 50 decorated
fans sold out in a few weeks. A second batch has
been completed and will be sold in the bazaar this
holiday season.
Our Carfare mothers have also ventured out into
decorating a traditional bag, known as
‘Bayong’ (market bag).
the spirit of creativity and entrepreneurship is high
amongst the women. Whilst assisting in whatever
way we can, being a non-profit organisation,
Cararoo cannot have any financial involvement.
