School Supplies

Distributing essential learning materials to students and schools in underserved communities across Mindanao, in partnership with HAWID.

Every school year, thousands of students in Mindanao start classes without the basic supplies they need to learn. The School Supplies Program addresses this gap through large-scale distribution drives that deliver notebooks, pens, backpacks, and educational materials to students in underserved communities.

Working with local government units and barangay officials, we identify the communities with the greatest need and organize distribution events that bring together volunteers, donors, and families. Each supply pack is carefully assembled to meet grade-level requirements, ensuring students have everything they need from day one.

Beyond individual supplies, the program also furnishes classrooms with teaching aids, reference materials, and basic equipment that support effective instruction.
