Empowered Women Empower Others
Women are pillars of our society. They have contributed so much, yet gained little to no recognition. During this pandemic, we have seen strong and empowered women stand up for themselves, and the people around them. We have seen women help each other. They play an important part in the fight against the Covid-19 pandemic, and our rise against its damages.
The Maginhawa Community Pantry was started by a 26-year-old woman named Ana Patricia Non, this started the Community Pantry movement, which helped Filipinos who had a lack of income or has lost their jobs get through the day. Filipina Frontliners who work day and night, despite being overworked and underpaid, still stand strong in order to save lives. There are more women who have started something, led a movement, or have done something to lighten the burden of her fellow Filipinos. This pandemic was hard for us, but with the help of empowered women, the burden becomes a bit more bearable. Despite the countless discrimination, sexism, and harassment they have faced in their daily lives, they still manage to help. That alone makes them empowered.
Empowered women empower others, and during these trying times, it is important we recognize the value of women in our society. Empowering women is the key to a future we all want.
