Gwendolyne Fourniol


Volunteers of a non-government organization spent the weekend with Miss World Philippines Gwendolyne Fourniol.

Miss World Philippines Gwendolyne Fourniol certainly had an eventful and meaningful weekend as she spent it doing advocacy work with the volunteers of the non-government organization she supports.

In one of her more recent posts on Instagram, Gwendolyne shared photos of her and mother volunteers from the ERDA Foundation taking part in a financial literacy and online selling skills training course, as well as a confidence building course that she conducted.

The ERDA Foundation is a non-government organization that was founded in 1974 and “envisions a nation where all children and youth have access to quality education and holistic development in a supportive environment for them to have a better life.”

This is just the latest activity that Gwendolyne has taken part in that benefits the volunteers of the ERDA Foundation. Back in May, she gave the ERDA Foundation volunteers a makeover day as a Mother's Day treat.

In the caption to one of the posts, she said that her work with ERDA Foundation has made her appreciate mothers in a different light, since the ERDA Foundation mothers do not just volunteer for the organization but are also “assiduous role models for their children and the youth of ERDA.”

Gwendolyne also started a donation drive back in February to benefit the foundation, accepting monetary donations through GCash and Paypal, as well as in-kind donations of school supplies, books, and toys.

Gwendolyne also made a similar call for donations of school supplies, books, educational resources or clothes last year, with the school supplies distributed to the foundation's beneficiaries back in September.

Gwendolyne has also visited the site of ERDA Foudnation's future Learning Hub in Baseco, Tondo to conduct an ocular inspection of the 25 square meter lot that will be the location of the two-story building.
