Being equipped with the proper tools for school is necessary for academic success. However, for many homeless school-aged children living in the streets in Metro Manila, education has taken a backseat due to greater family needs such as food and utilities.
 
Fortunately, Childhope Philippines recognizes that in order to break the cycle of poverty and hunger, children must be prepared to learn and succeed in school. Additionally, statistics show that children tend to learn and retain more information if they perceive themselves to be on a level playing field with other children. Children that are academically prepared have higher self-confidence, self-worth and pride, which in turn, results in better grades.

These street children will receive school supplies directly from Childhope in a function on June 15, 2019.
