March is Women’s International Month! This is a special time to celebrate how amazing women are. Around the world, and especially in New Zealand, Filipino women help each other in many ways.
When women work together, they make life better for everyone.
Moving to a new country can be hard. Learning a new language, finding a job, and making friends takes time. But when women help one another, things get easier.
A small act of kindness—like sharing advice or giving encouragement—can make a big difference.
Helping Each Other
Pinoys in NZ is a great place for women to connect. Here, women share tips, support each other’s businesses, and celebrate their achievements.
When one woman succeeds, it inspires others to do the same!
Many Filipinas in New Zealand have started small businesses.
With support from other women, their businesses grow and succeed.
Taking Care of Each Other
Women also help each other in everyday life. Some moms take turns looking after each other’s children. This way, other moms can go to work or study without worrying.
Others help each other find jobs or give advice on how to adjust to life in a new country.
Even small things, like listening to a friend’s problems, can make a big difference.
Breaking Barriers
Women are also making big changes in workplaces. Many Filipinas work in hospitals, schools, and offices. They help each other apply for jobs, go for promotions, and become leaders.
When one woman steps up, she opens doors for others to follow.
A Brighter Future
Women are strong when they stand together. Helping each other makes life better for everyone. When women support women, no one has to struggle alone. Success is not about competing—it’s about lifting each other up.
This Women’s International Month, let’s continue to support, inspire, and celebrate one another. Together, we can make the future brighter for all Filipinas in New Zealand!
