TWH Gulong Sa Pagsulong Mobility Aid Assistance TURNS 36!

First Asia Pacific Conference of Workability International-Asia “Championing people with disabilities' (PWDs) right to work world-wide” is the slogan of Workability International, the world's largest representational body for providers of work and employment services to PWDs. More than two million PWDs are engaged in work programs delivered by its member organizations in 36 countries. We believe that PWDs must have legal rights to equal opportunities and nondiscrimination in all aspects of their lives, especially in the world of work. To put this on the ground, Workability International works in partnership with a range of international bodies and authorities, to break down the barriers which prevent PWDs from participating in the workforce and therefore, maximizing their social and economic independence. As a member of this organization, Tahanang Walang Hagdanan was tasked to organize the A s i a P a c i f i c C o n f e r e n c e o f Wo r k a b i l i t y International-Asia on April 22, 2009. Twenty participants from Japan and Fifteen from other member countries are attending the conference, a total of 35 delegates. Aside from them, Stakeholders from the Philippines including private companies, non-government organizations and government agencies are invited to join. The last conference of which was held at Sapporo, Japan where 59 countries participated last year including the Philippines which was attended by Ms. Joy. Garcia from TWH, Johnny Lantion of NFCWDP and Peter Hamerlee of CBM. We wish to invite more members to have a stronger alliance to bring on board every Filipino disabled especially in the world of work and employment.

Thirty-six years of serving a greater number of PWDs in the Philippines is indeed an accomplishment for TWH! We continue to glorify and praise God in thanksgiving for His Divine Providence from TWH establishment to this very day. This great mission started with the Divine calling of Sr. Valeriana Baerts, ICM. TWH Founder and Chairperson of the Board who braved all odds in obedience to God. We are also grateful for the committed people who continue to be instruments in accomplishing His works.. Our Foundation Day on February 21, 2009 will be a simple celebration. Of course with the Holy Mass at 9am officiated by Msgr. Arnel Lagarejos, TWH BODand Parish Priest of Cainta, followed by a short program with expected guests like Dorothy and Nicole Watts, Shirley White from Australia, Pieter Berteloot and Simone Debree of Helping Hands Int'l. Sumptuous lunch follows at TWH AIC while in the afternoon is the championship of the workers' sports fest. This will truly be a very significant day for all of us.

. . . e d i s n i What’s

One of the programs of Tahanang Walang Hagdanan is the mobility aid assistance, that is providing wheelchair and other mobility aid such as cane, crutches, walker, prosthesis, leg braces, etc. to indigent persons with mobility impairment. We have three (3) sourcesof this program Gulong Sa Pagsulong - one of the most sought welfare services of Tahanang Walang Hagdanan, since it started last 1994. Many avail of this service referred through our Community Based Rehabilitation Program and referred by the office of the Department of Social Welfare and Development, other NGOs, Government Offices, hospitals and religious organizations. Most of the beneficiaries of this program avail customized wheelchair and other assistive devices produced by Tahanang Walang Hagdanan. Beneficiaries were required to contribute some counterpart in any amount they could share for we want them to be responsible of their needs and do away with the “dole out” system.

From the Desk of the President In the thirty-six years since the establishment of Tahanang Walang Hagdanan, Inc. we have achieved dramatic success. This has earned Tahanang Walang Hagdanan the respect of its partners and stakeholders. For this, TWH is recognized throughout Asia as a center of excellence and is used as a training facility by the disabled not only from other provinces but also other countries of the region. We have had conducted training programs for wheelchair manufacturing for the Disabled group from Laos and Palau. Recently, we had conducted management training and workshop operations to JICA trainees from Costa Rica. TWH is known to provide employment to persons with disability and has become a model in Asia Pacific in terms of workshop set up and establishment. Tahanang Walang Hagdanan's continuous marketing effort has gained favorable result such as establishment of two outlets for its products and services. Apart from its two outlets, TWH is also a regular supplier of the National Book Store chain, Cash and Carry Supermarket and Abenson's Home Plus. With our mission to provide employment to persons with disability, we continue to develop quality products and increase our market outlets. New challenges lie ahead. With constant dedication and our unwavering faith in the Almighty, we confidently face a new tomorrow with high hopes. Maraming Salamat po! Manuel V. Agcaoili President/CEO

================================== (Continuation of Mobility Aid ...fr. p1) Donors are companies, organizations and individuals who give mostly wheelchairs as part of their corporate social responsibility, or to share their blessings to those in need of wheelchair For this year we got 20 units of brand new wheelchairs from Otsuka Pharma and 18 units had been given to the beneficiaries last December 2008. For almost a year now, we have been receiving imported wheelchairs from the Latter Day Saints through the facilitation of the National Council on Disability Affairs and the NOVA Foundation. These wheelchairs are given free of charge to indigent Persons with Disability nationwide. Aside from individual beneficiaries, organizations, hospitals, are also given for the use of their patients. For all requests, we require Social Case Study report from the Department of Social Welfare and Development Office or private / NGO’s Social Worker and a whole body picture of the beneficiary. In some cases we also request the Medical Abstract.

============== Seminars on Effective English Communication

Effective communication is a basic tool towards effective marketing, public relations and project development. In the effort of TWH to continuously train and develop its people, seminars on Effective English Communication were held particularly for its key offices and production supervisors. The first seminar was conducted last June 21, 2008 by First Strategic. Net headed by Nikki Rodriquez, its Executive Director. Topic discussed was Ef fe c t i v e C o m m u n i c a t i o n a t t h e Workplace which included Basics in Business Communication that tackled on correct grammar and essential words and gestures. Also discussed were Rules in Business Writing with different types and styles of communication. The second seminar was conducted last July 28 and August 4, 8, 2008 by Business Makers Academy through the kind generosity of husband and wife, Mark Frederick and Jhoanna So, its Chief E xe c u t i v e O f f i c e r a n d P r e s i d e n t respectively. This is part of their Teach It Forward program which is an outreach for

Picture taking with Ms. Imee Schwartz accessing English proficiency for interested marginalized groups. Three sessions were conducted with two on I nte n s i ve G ra m m a r h a n d l e d b y Imee Schwarts and another one on Business Writing by Gege Sugue. Lectures and practice on grammar were rigid to assure intact learning complimented with written and verbal drills. Same thing with the third session that discussed different writing formats and styles that set priorities according to proposed need. Participants learned a lot which definitely would assist them in their work in making TWH programs and services more comprehensive. To our trusted partners that have proven their corporate social responsibility, our heartfelt thanks.
