Life begins at 40, as the adage goes. 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.

Soon enough, the risk Marrero took bore fruit as the now 69-year-old can finally savor the hard-earned benefits of her work abroad.
