Help for Self-Help on the Philippines

The mission of the German NGO "Task Force Carabao" is to stimulate and support self-help of the people in the Philippines. More than one half of the Filipino people exists below the poverty line.  The Carabao as indispensable beast of burden in the Philippines  is a symbol for urgently necessary help. Task Force Carabao supports non-formal education for the children of the refugee site Kara-an,  Negros Occidental, the Children Learning center Batang Pit-os in Cebu City, the foundation Batang Pinangga for abused children in Triumfo, Carmen, Cebu and a project for health-care and health education in Bohol.

Task Force Carabao has been founded in 1994 by members of the Coordination Group for  the Philippines of Amnesty International Germany. Our main goal is the implementation of human rights in the Philippines, particularly social, economic and cultural rights. Task Force Carabao is licensed by the German authorities. The projects in the Philippines are funded by mostly small givers. Besides funding projects within the limits of our very small budget it is very important for us to promote the mutual understanding of people in the Philippines and in Germany by information and personal contact.
