📷SanukPhoto: #GABOH

in #philippines • 9 years ago (edited)

Just sharing our company's yearly activity to help Filipino students address a basic challenge in their education.

Poverty still counts as the main reason why elementary school children drop out of school. A local study on the Philippine educational system says that an average student would spend about P900 to purchase school supplies, which accounts for the second highest expense next to transportation.

#GABOH or Give a Bag of Hope
