A while ago, we interviewed Jojie, a 15-year-old Filipino mom, to highlight the issue of rising teenage pregnancy in the Philippines. If you haven't seen the video, please check it out.

Shortly after our video went out, we received heartbreaking news that Jojie's baby died. He was barely 2 months old. We at Asian Boss were all shocked and saddened by what happened to Jojie. And we felt that we had to do something to help her out. The $1,000 that we gave to Jojie will cover for her school-related expenses but that's not going to last. To ensure that she's able to complete her remaining 8 years of formal education, we've set up a crowdfunding page so that you can donate money to help make this goal possible. Please do do what you can to help them.

Also, thanks to our Asian Boss team in Manila
