ABOUT US
Arise to Christ Youth Work in Siquijor, Philippines. The population of this small island is about 130,000 and the roughly two-thirds of young people lack the drive and motivation to succeed in life other than the basketball and volleyball, and other pursuits of the simple pleasures of life. Many drop out of school due to early pregnancies or get entangled in careless abuse of substances such as drug or alcohol.
Arise to Christ Youth Work will focus its resources towards providing education of young people in such topics including academia, relationships and marriage, parenting, establishing and running micro businesses. Arise to Christ Youth Work will additionally provide opportunity for the young people to develop general life skills through singing, dancing, reading the Bible, training and equipping through leadership programs, camps and concerts.
