Jane Walker, a former British publishing executive, has made a significant impact in one of Manila's largest slums by establishing a foundation that provides education to children and empowers mothers. The foundation has built a school using shipping containers and teaches mothers to create fashion items from waste, which are sold abroad. This initiative not only generates income but also instills a sense of self-worth among the mothers. The foundation supports hundreds of families, providing essential needs and education to up to 300 children at a time.
