ABOUT
House of the Heroes is an independent charity for abandoned children in Manila and was founded in 2008 by the Johnsons from UK/Norway & Sanchez family from the Philippines. Our vision is to create a home for children at risk.
We are currently close to completing a new home that will support many children in desperate need of our help, and for which we are running this campaign.
MISSION
HOTH started when the Johnson's took a trip to Manila and were heartbroken to see many children living in poverty, roaming the streets and working on dumpsites. So together with the Sanchez family they dreamed of creating a safe place for some of these children who really needed it.
It wouldn’t be an ordinary shelter - it had to be a home. And so House of the Heroes was formed. HOTH now supports 20 children in a family like setting and works in the local community to reunite street children with their families.
A couple of years back HOTH purchased land and has now started building a new home for many, many more children who are in real need. Recent skyrocketing inflation in the Philippines has meant the project overran its initial budget and more is needed to ensure that we finish what was started and see a dream come true for many children at risk. We are so close to being able to do so much more.
