After a period of research and reflection, with the help of Miriam del Rosario, founder of Birthright Educators Foundation, these formidable women took decisive action and founded HALMS. The foundation’s name is derived from a combination of the five founders: Helen, Astrid, Lynn, Maria and Sabrina.
With the generous and selfless support of Miriam del Rosario and her husband, Pastor Jun, construction to build the HALMS school began in April 2014.
With charitable donations and help from friends and family, volunteers constructed the building with mostly recycled mat from the local recycle depot.
