The Cinderella - College Fund via GoFundMe.com

I started a project to spread some Aloha to a dear Filipina friend working in China to support her family. I researched a crowd funding website called GoFundMe.com to find out if it's a good resource to create a campaign to raise money for a good cause. I setup an account in a short time it's so easy to do. They have excellent customer support. I had some questions and they were awesome answering it.

The goal of the project is to raise enough money to secure payments for two semesters of college in the Philippines for my friend's son who just graduated from High School.

The campaign to fund raise is called: The Cinderella - College Fund because she is a real life Cinderella working so hard to support her family back home. She now has an extra expense, college tuition to pay. Her dream is for her son to attended college. I want to help grant her dream.

Please help me grant it. Thank you! 

Who would you like to meet in real life?

We live in a world that idolizes celebrities, sports figures and famous people. I did some soul searching and decided on none of those type of people. I want to meet a regular person. I found that special person on the other side of the world from where I live by chance. Social Media has a global reach. We just connected on social media and developed a special friendship. That person is very special to me now because we slowly got to know each other real good by sharing our daily life activities though the years.

I meet a lot of people on social media who I correspond with. I met online a real nice person. I have done Skype video chats and Viber calls so I know that person is real not a scammer. That college football player from Notre Dame, Manti Te'o had a fake girl friend that was an unfortunate situation. I don't know what Manti was doing that he fell for a hoax they call catfishing.

The real life person that I want to meet one day is the humble young woman who just happens to look like a Filipina movie star. She is working in China to support her family in the Philippines. I call her the Filipina Cinderella because she has a tough life working in China. Her husband abandon her and provides no support for the children so she had to seek employment abroad to earn a good salary to provide for her family. 

Hard work reaps results. I found out her eldest son just recently graduated from High School and will be attending college. She was unable to attended his graduation. Her attitude and her christian faith get's her through tough times in life. She is not a complainer. She will make the best of any situation. 

I know one day that Cinderella will meet a Prince and live happily ever after. She just lives one day at a time. She makes life an adventure. I learn from her all the time about life. She is my real life role model. 

A Filipina Cinderella in China

Right now there is a girl living in the land of industry and power. She is a domestic worker for a wealthy Chinese business owner. She had to leave her home country the Philippines to support her children and mother because of the high unemployment and low wages in her country. She has some college, but did not finish. Her jerk husband left her and provides no support for the children.

A real life Cinderella living in her employer's luxury residence. She receives what I call a monthly salary that pays more than other countries. Her duties are nanny, cook, housekeeper and whatever the family throws at her. It's not a 9-5 job. She works long hours everyday and gets a few days off in the month to do personal business.

Imagine being separated from your children and family. That is the ultimate sacrifice a person can do. She does it to give her children and mom a good life by sending her salary home and just keeping a small allowance for herself to survive in China. She is allowed an annual vacation to visit her family.

She is hoping to meet a modern day Prince one day to be her soulmate and rescue her from this modern day slavery. China does not regulate domestic work. In America you would be fined and go to jail for labor law violations.

Cinderella is a beautiful and sweet woman making it clear to any suitor that she will still work to support her family if they get married one day. She is not looking for a sugar daddy. She is looking for true love like in a fairy tale, that's why I call her Cinderella. She is a strong proud woman with class.
