We provide a much-needed opportunity for the children of poor families to get out of poverty by obtain an education.
Every year, thousands of young and healthy minds are going to waste in the Philippines because the families cannot pay the $25.00 per year for their children to stay in school. Of the 15+ million illiterate people in the Philippines 50% are children. Their family has less than two dollars per day with which to survive, there is no money for anything else. Filipino children that cannot attend school are compelled to work so as to support the needs of their family. Close to a million Filipino youths work as garbage scavengers in public dumps. Other children employed in rural sectors work nonstop on sugar, rice and tea plantations or in the fishing sector.
We go to the small cities untouched by the large charities.
