"The great thing a little lamp can do which the big sun cannot do is to give light at night. It shows no one is superior by size but by purpose. If we cannot do great things, we can do small things in a great way. Little things make a big difference to God."

There is a wealth of social entrepreneurism in the Philippines which I have been privileged to know. 

For example, check out Jacinto & Lirio

http://www.JacintoandLirio.com

JACINTO & LIRIO (meaning Hyacinth and Lily) is a brand by EcoIngenuity Inc., that showcases the Filipino innovation of plant leather, like the water hyacinth, into fashionable and functional statement bags and accessories through sustainable means. Our social enterprise aims to raise the competitiveness of indigenous materials and the communities that produce them using global design brands.
