The
dividing line between rich and poor in the Philippines today is education.
When Filipino children live in poverty, literacy becomes a critical link
in a chain that can either tie children to a life of poverty or be used
to pull them out of it.
For children living in poverty, every day is filled with challenges and
missed opportunities. READ Philippines believes that education is the
best road to a better life for most of these children. With a strong educational
foundation, children in even the most impoverished and remote communities
have a chance at college, a career, and a ticket out of poverty.
*****
Poor
rural communities in the Philippines are often deprived of a quality education.
Lack of school facilities
and equipment, dilapidated classrooms, poorly prepared teachers, lack
of textbooks and good educational resources or references are negative
factors that hinder children from excelling and overcoming the challenges
of learning and going to school.
