The Officers and Members of the Consuelo Foundation arrived in Calbayog today for a visit and updates on their various projects which were implemented through the Western Samar Development Foundation (WESADEF). One of the highlights of the visit was the ground-breaking ceremony for the Balay Consuelo which when finished will serve as a shelter for sexually-abused children in Calbayog and nearby municipalities.
