Welcome Home Foundation

Education, Ministry, and Outreach for the Filipino Deaf

Welcome Home, Deaf

The Welcome Home Foundation, Inc. (WHFI) is a non-profit, non-governmental organization serving the deaf people of the Philippines. With facilities in the Visayas and Mindanao, we are supporting our deaf brothers and sisters in three main ways: education, ministry, and outreach.

We are on the forefront of education during the national transition to Filipino Sign Language (FSL); not only helping the deaf become skilled workers and students, but also assisting in the development of a stronger community and culture that the Filipino deaf can call their own.

While the deaf hear less, they do more... and so we welcome them into our hearts, and our home.

Education

Our educational offerings include the pre-school Educational Resource Center (ERC), the Welcome Home Preschool for the the Deaf, Malaybalay, the post-high school Literacy Program (LP), agricultural training, and sign language instruction courses for adult hearing and deaf learners.

Ministry

Since our humble beginnings, the Catholic faith has guided us in all aspects of our work. We continue to spread values education, catechism, and the Gospel through Special Religious Education for the Deaf (SPRED), signed Mass interpretation, and Special Education high school programs.

Outreach

Advocacy for the deaf is our top priority. We run training facilities to foster marketable skills, good work ethic, and entrepreneurial spirit. Additionally, we build direct hiring partnerships with local companies. Additionally, we help our students enter college with the financial aid and interpretive assistance they need.
