It seems like yesterday when Carol Hanlon and Mel Rom first visited Ormoc on a Textile Clothing Footwear Western Australia visit. That was in July (if I remember right), 2007. Refer to this post for accuracy: <a href="http://www.tcformoc.com/2008/05/carols-i-shall-return-to-ormoc-city.html">http://www.tcformoc.com/2008/05/carols-i-shall-return-to-ormoc-city.html</a><br />

<br />
Everything was lightning fast because the first batch of donations arrived in November of the same year of their visit (2007). Fast forward to this week - September 19, 2013, the fourth container van of donations arrived at the Eastern Visayas State University in Ormoc, Philippines. This is the second donation for EVSU Ormoc.<br />

<br />
Good intentions of our Australian friends has to be nurtured by taking good care of their donations and ensuring that it goes to the right beneficiaries. That is why accountability has to be instituted.<br />

Carol Hanlon never stops to amaze us all in TCF Ormoc. Since the first time she set foot in Ormoc she has not abandoned us. The donations in container vans keep coming, exposing us to international conferences, providing us with other opportunities and I don't know how much more!<div>

Now she invited the Apparel-making Trainer Engr. Justol to the TCF Global Buying Mission in Daegu, South Korea in March, 2013. She said she wanted our trainer to have a feel on the fashion industry. <br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Started by Carol Hanlon of Textile Clothing Footwear Western Australia (TCFWA), TCF Ormoc organized itself. It started after the first donation of used sewing machines, clothing materials and many more arrived in Ormoc with the profound support of Dr. Gregorio Yrastorza, Jr and his late wife, Ma'am Glenda and the couple Rhay and Mel Rom. </span></span></h2>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Fast-forward to 2013, after two more batches of 20-foot container vans of donations from Textile Clothing Footwear Western Australia (TCFWA) led by the ever-energetic Carol Hanlon, a training program on Sewing opened at the Eastern Visayas State University Ormoc Campus (EVSU Ormoc). This new partner of TCF Ormoc enrolled under its Extension Services Unit, 11 mothers in November 18, 2012. Their ages range from 50 years old and 27.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The training starts with teaching the trainees on measurement, pattern-making, cutting and of course sewing. At the end of their training period of 54 hours (Every Sunday for 6 months) they shall have finished one blouse and skirt, one short pants, one long pants and one evening or formal wear.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These mothers were motivated to enroll at the EVSU because they said they want to learn and by so doing, shall be able to augment their family income while at home, watching their small kids.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The trainees are paying one thousand pesos (P1,000.00) for the whole training until they "graduate" after six months. Seventy (70%) of the tuition goes to the Trainer as her professional fee and 30% goes to the school to be plowed back as training funds. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This semester's EVSU Ormoc graduation academic gowns were already done by these trainees. They were also paid for it. They're now earning while attending the training.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">More are waiting to enroll at the TCF-EVSU Ormoc sewing training. Despite the lack of resources, facilities and sewing training accessories, TCF-EVSU Ormoc will continue doing this as its service to the community. This because TCF-EVSU Ormoc has the staunch support of <b>Dr. Lilian D. Estorninos</b>, the Campus Director. Also, all these wouldn't have happened without the committed support of the Extension Services Unit Head Mrs. <b>Beatrice D. Mabitad.</b></span><br />

taking on earthy shapes and the colors yellow, blue, orange, olive green,

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Mel and Rhay Rom’s visit to Ormoc was not really a
surprise because Mel has been mentioning it in her facebook page. But when October 17, 2012 came the excitement
could not be contained since I would be seeing my Australian friends once
again!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Though it was just a whole day affair as they were on
limited time, still it was memorable because after showing them TCFWA’s third
batch of donations through Carol Hanlon, Mel decided right then to sponsor four
women trainees to the Textile Clothing Footwear-Eastern Visayas State
University (TCF-EVSU) Apparel-Making Training. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Actually, the target is to establish an entrepreneurship center inside
EVSU Ormoc with the assistance of Dr. Lillian Estorninos, the campus director
but that can take a backstage for now.
Dr. Estorninos is also the president of Business and Professional Women
in Ormoc (BPW Ormoc).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“I have known Carol for 20 years!”, says Mel when asked
how she and Carol came to know each other.
This is an important portion of the history of the Ormoc Community
Sewing Project because this is how it all started. Mel and Carol’s friendship created this
mammoth of a project that involved a lot of people in Ormoc and in Western
Australia.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">This friendship caused the shipment of a 40-foot container
van full of sewing machines, textiles and other sewing gadgets and
materials. This was in 2008. An article about this has been published back
in 2008. (Please see archives.) Succeeding 20-foot van donations would arrive
in 2009 and 2011 respectively through the efforts of the wonderful men and
women volunteers of Textile Clothing Footwear Western Australia on Carol’s
leadership. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Back to the Roms’ visit, Mel saw the condition of the
classrooms of this satellite campus of EVSU in Ormoc. She promised to help in this regard and also
to present Social Media workshops to assist students to build a solid online
reputation. According to Betty Mabitad,
EVSU Ormoc Accounting Office head, it only takes ten thousand Australian
dollars to construct a decent classroom.
That gave Mel something for her heart and mind to work on. We hope to see a light in this dark limbo
soon.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

Around the world, supporters of women’s rights have heralded its debut.</p><p style="font-weight: 200; ">“With the birth of UN Women, we welcome a powerful new agent for progress on gender equality and women’s empowerment,” says UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. “The challenges are great, but I believe that with the new energy, the new momentum and the new authority that UN Women brings, these challenges will be met. True gender equality should be our shared legacy in the 21st Century.”</p><p style="font-weight: 200; ">The Secretary-General appointed former Chilean President Michelle Bachelet to be the first Executive Director of UN Women. Calling the launch the first of many important milestones in the global pursuit of gender equality, she emphasizes that the decision to establish UN Women reflects ongoing frustration with the slow pace of change. UN Member States unanimously agreed to create the new organization, following longstanding advocacy by women’s activists.</p><p style="font-weight: 200; ">“Think of how much more we can do once women are fully empowered as active agents of change and progress within their societies,” Ms. Bachelet says. “Historically, we are at a point of great potential and change for women. Now we must seize that opportunity.”</p><p style="font-weight: 200; ">She adds, “My own experience has taught me that there is no limit to what women can do.”</p><p style="font-weight: 200; ">UN Women will support individual countries in moving towards gender equality in economics and politics, and ending the worldwide phenomenon of violence against women. It will assist in setting international standards for progress, and lead coordinated UN efforts to make new opportunities for women and girls central to all UN programmes for development and peace.</p><p style="font-weight: 200; ">UN Women Goodwill Ambassador and Academy-Award winner Nicole Kidman describes personal experiences of seeing women change the world. “There are incredible testimonies of resilience, strength and dignity — and ultimately of hope,” she says. “This is why I say that the women and girls I have met are my personal heroes. It is my pleasure and pride to be with UN Women, the new, strong voice for women around the world.”</p><p style="font-weight: 200; ">H.R.H. Princess Cristina of Spain, in her capacity as President of the Institute of Health of Barcelona, urges broader understanding of how an investment in women is an investment in families, communities and nations. Citing uneven progress on aspects of the Millennium Development Goals such as reduced maternal mortality, she calls on“all stakeholders and champions — governments, foundations, the private sector, civil society, academic institutions and individuals — to invest in women’s empowerment as an instrumental strategy to achieve the MDGs.”</p><p style="font-weight: 200; ">Ms. Juju Chang, news anchor for ABC’s Good Morning America, serves as emcee of the celebration.
