Online Self Care for Filipina Migrants to the Gulf States
I am happy to write you on the occasion of our first annual report. Having incorporated in late May 2021 with a fiscal year running from July 1 to June 30th, the Rain Collective has just completed its first year in existence as an organization.
As a recipient of a Fulbright Specialist position, Jason is researching resources available for Filipina women that have been trafficked in the MENA region.
Help us reach our goal of repatriating 15 victims of modern-day slavery from the Middle East back to sub-Saharan Africa, Southeast Asia and other home countries. Most are single mothers or individuals looking to support their family, exploited and deceived by agents promising work opportunities.
The past two months have been full of activity and new ventures for Rain Collective. In June, Rain Collective’s founding director Jason, took a trip to both Egypt and Uganda. Rain Collective also hired a Repatriation Negotiator to work on the front-lines of cases impacting both Ugandans and Liberians who have been trafficked to the Gulf States.
