I'm interested in finding expats who work to uplift and help the Filipino people in Manila. Do you or any ex-pat you know have a worthy cause ? Please let me know.

Be very careful. Filming in the Philippines can be very dangerous.

The Salvation Army (I am not associated with them) do amazing things all around the world.  I know that they are in the Philippines and may be worthwhile contact for you.

PS there is also the Rotary, I am not sure of Manila but I know in that in Angeles City there is a mix of expats and Filipino's, and that they sponsor some street kids through school.  And I think, via the schools, make available health meals to the children

All the best.

PS if you go to Angeles and want to look into the other side of the place the doors may not open to you.  If you just want to look at what some people do to help the street kids, then the doors may open to you.  Put respect the people (expats and locals) and, as I am sure you are aware as a Documentary maker there are some things that people will allow you to see and others thing they will not.

Simply respect that many expats as many of the expats don't fit into the western world for one reason or another.  Filipina's and even Filipino's that work in the seedy industry are doing it because they have to.  This is a very tough country, for many of them 5,000php a month is food on the table, food that they didn't have before, the difference between life and death is food.

I'm working towards employing single moms through data entry jobs. I've just now found a business location. I will also be providing SEO services to American companies.
I have a few other companies I work with but are not part of my main business plan.
My goal is to gradually place laptops and wifi in trusted employees home's. Hopefully making hubs for several mothers to work and share child care duties.
I'm currently in Toledo City Cebu. Tonight, I was discussing the possibility of relocating to Manila for many reasons.
Is this the kinda of community improvement project that would intereste you?
