Last August 24, 2023, DysrupIT’s inaugural Bahay Tuluyan Annual Fundraiser, which aimed to raise awareness and garner support for Bahay Tuluyan, an organisation dedicated to safeguarding children in the Philippines, reached its goal and doubled it successfully.

The event’s success proves that with giving hearts, we can go beyond the event’s projected goals, allowing us to make a massive impact on the lives of the children in the Philippines.

Everyone came together as a community, pooling all efforts to ensure the children under Bahay Tuluyan’s care in the Philippines remain safe and protected. Each person’s contribution made a huge difference. Your kindness in sharing valuable items for our auction, engaging in the bidding, sending generous donations, and joining us for a memorable dinner in Sydney will provide shelter and security for these children, shielding them from the average of 18 to 20 typhoons that the country faces yearly.

Moreover, your gift will advance Bahay Tuluyan’s mission and objectives, creating a brighter and more secure future for these vulnerable children. Bahay Tuluyan runs ten programs that provide a holistic, rights-based and empowering approach to development for young people. These programs focus on Resilient Children, Empowered Youth, Safe Families & Child Friendly Communities. The organisation aims to achieve its vision of a world where every child’s rights are respected, protected, and fulfilled.

This early, we encourage all of you to join us for an even more remarkable event in 2024. It’s never too early to express your support or get involved. If you’re interested in joining this meaningful journey, please don’t hesitate to contact Alexandra Brookes, who can provide you with more information on contributing and participating.

Once again, we extend our heartfelt thanks for everyone’s overwhelming support. The success of this event belongs to all of you who lent a helping hand, shared resources, and believed in the power of collective action. Together, we are making a positive difference in the lives of these children.

DysrupIT™ Partners with Philippines NGO – Bahay Tuluyan Changing The Lives of Children 

in /by

MAKATI, PHILIPPINES – DysrupIT, a leading Australian IT Cloud services company, announces its partnership with Bahay Tuluyan (BT). This non-government children’s rights organisation helps to prevent and respond to the abuse and exploitation of children in the Philippines.

DysrupIT’s connection to the Philippines runs deep, with a large Team in-country, managed by Filipino-born Australian owner Elizabeth Hermosura.

Hermosura said, “The partnership with Bahay Tuluyan is a clear choice. I’ve always wanted to support vulnerable children and youth in my country of birth. The partnership is a major step in realising this goal. It’s fantastic to find a partner on the ground with shared values and objectives.”

Bahay Tuluyan, meaning “forever home” in Filipino, has three centres in Manila, Laguna, and Quezon. Hermosura says, “Our partnership with BT will ensure Catherine Scerri and her Team can focus on providing ongoing emergency services to those in need. This includes long-term accommodation for homeless children and young adults.”

BT’s holistic programs also provide life skills to teenagers and young adults. It helps prepare them for adulthood, accessing education and on-the-job training. Hermosura said, “Our support will be long-term and broad reaching. It includes direct financial assistance to operate BT’s centres, monthly delivery of essentials packages like clothing and personal items, to hands-on involvement from the DysrupIT™ Team. Our goal is to set BT residents on the path to independence.”

DysrupIT™ will also offer paid internships and provide education through its Udemy-powered online training platform.

“We look forward to our partnership with Bahay Tuluyan and what it can achieve for the future generation of Filipino youth,” said Elizabeth Hermosura. “To give children and young people the care they need is close to my heart. Every child deserves a safe and nurturing environment. We are proud to work with Bahay Tuluyan on this mission.”

DysrupIT™ will also help coordinate fundraising in Australia through BT’s Melbourne-based Foundation.  This will be led by Marco Hermosura, ANZ Country Manager, and the Australian Team.
