Crisbonie's Story

Crisbone Cacas, a widowed mom, makes and sells chorizo and other processed meat to her regular customers. Her hard work almost covers the basic needs in their home, like rice, clothing and electricity. She has two children whom she hopes won't miss out on college.

She is asking a loan from World Vision to buy more ingredients to make her chorizo and processed meats to sell. A loan is the critical ingredient for her business to earn enough income for her children's needs.

Her dream for her children is that they will grow as responsible persons and graduate from college in the future.

Crisbonie's Community

The community of Mountain View is located in a boot-shaped province on Negros Island in the Philippines. Home to Mt. Kanlaon, an active volcano, the area is rich with natural resources. With convenient access to a variety of markets, the community is emerging as a promising frontier for investors.

Economic activities revolve around agriculture, fishery, and forestry. Environmental degradation is a pressing concern. The region has been identified as one of the lowest income-earning areas in the country. Families struggle to acquire proper nutrients, and some do not have access to clean water. Malnutrition and disease are constant concerns. Families are hindered by poor road conditions, and many children drop out of school.

In Mountain View, World Vision has provided community members with key employment skills, including training in food processing and assistance in livestock rearing. We have also provided medical and housing assistance, supplemental food for malnourished children, fees and materials for children to attend school, and educational support for child laborers.
