For Agnes Leticia Marrero, it began at 45.

Marrero left the Philippines at an age usually associated with approaching retirement, and worked as a domestic helper in Hong Kong for 15 years.

For a woman at the prime of her life to leave her family behind and pursue work overseas is unusual, but Marrero was determined to help finance her four teenage children’s education.
