00:00An organization that supports the well-being of babies and women was founded by the Philippine Red Cross.
00:09Under the leadership of the Philippine Red Cross Secretary General Dr. Gwendolyn Pang,
00:13Ladies for a Cause was founded.
00:15It is an association of women to support and lead the first 1,000 days of the lives of babies and their mothers.
00:24According to Pang, the role of women is important as caretakers and light of the house
00:30to ensure the well-being, healthiness, and strength of the next generations.
00:36In addition, former Senator Attorney Joey Lina,
00:39the leader of the Children's First 1000 Days Coalition,
00:42cannot leave the Filipinos.
00:46That is, the future of the country is starting before giving birth to a child and taking care of the mothers.
00:53The Philippines will be a strong family and the community will be healthy.
01:00If there is no sufficient nutrition for the mother and the baby
01:10until the second year of her life,
01:13the baby's future will be in danger.
01:19We cannot wait. This is very urgent.
01:22We have seen the numbers. We have seen the problems.
01:28So if we will not act now, we will have more problems to come.
