Virlanie is one of the largest, private, non-sectarian child caring institutions in Metro Manila. The Foundation includes 12 residential homes where it welcomes street children, as well as outreach and support programs for the children and families in Manila's poorest neighborhoods.
These programs aim to reintegrate the children into community life and to help them to become self-reliant, self-confident and productive. In the long term, Virlanie's vision is to empower these street children with hope for a brighter future.
Since its establishment in 1992, VFI has transformed the lives of thousands of children who have been victims of various forms of abuse and exploitation in the street, in jail, from prostitution and syndicates and even from their own families and relatives. With its innovative approach of community reintegration and mainstreaming, as embodied in the family structure of all the homes and its family reunification and outreach programs, VFI achieves its vision of empowered children with hope for a brighter future.
The foundation is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is duly licensed and recognized by the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD). It is also a member of the Philippine National Council Against Child Prostitution and of the Working Party On Children’s Rights working with the Department of Justice.

May GOD bless the work of Virlaine in Sagay so that the blessing will flow to all the youth in Negros island and the Philippines.
May it be a model of what an agribusiness school should be in the future!
