Background

HELP provides a free MeHeal (Mind and Body Healing) service to help Migrant Domestic Workers to have better mental health since we found out that 72% of them show symptoms of depression. One of the branch activities of MeHeal is a yoga class. In 2023, we did a survey and 99.7% participants expressed feeling the benefits in their physical and mental well-being after attending and 99.3% would like to attend the next activity. HELP is looking for experienced instructors to volunteer with us and work closely with Migrant Domestic Workers to conduct physical well-being activities, such as zumba / workout / dance / yoga or others.

What we have

We will provide (1) The venue (2) Briefing on the needs and assistance required by Migrant Domestic Workers (3) Volunteer allowance for transport

Why this is important

Through physical activities, we are empowering Migrant Domestic Workers to be able to take better care of their own health. With a healthier body, we hope that they would also be able to have a healthier mind, have a lower rate of depression symptoms, and be able to make sound decisions when faced with work-related issues.
