| Break the Silence |
I personally admire the works of
Gualandi Volunteer Service Programme, Inc (
GVSP) for their big effort in supporting our deaf community and our sexually abused community (whether it be a child, a woman or even a man). If you guys are unaware of what is happening to our society now,
65-70% of deaf boys and girls are being molested and is still continues to rise according to studies conducted by the Philippine Deaf Resource Center.
I have been very athletic lately and recently went back to marathon runs (will share more about my runs on my next few posts). Unfortunately, as much as I would love to join
Break the Silence Run, my work is in total conflict with the schedule; however, my heart and soul is in full support with this cause so I encourage you guys to join forces and fight sexual abuse!
