Summary
Many students in public schools face challenges accessing education due to limited resources.
To address this issue, our program aims to support students in partner schools so they can attend classes regularly despite facing financial or other difficulties. We provide a monthly transportation allowance to eligible students who maintain regular attendance. We closely monitor attendance to ensure students remain eligible for continued support.
Problem Overview
In the Philippines, students with disabilities, face significant challenges in accessing education due to the lack of free transportation to school. Unlike in some regions where school transportation is provided, these students must bear the daily cost of getting to and from school.
For many families, these expenses are a significant financial burden, leading to irregular attendance or, in some cases, forcing students to drop out altogether. This situation creates a barrier to education, preventing students from fully engaging in their studies and achieving their academic potential.
With our transportation grants, we aim to address this critical issue by alleviating the financial strain of transportation costs, ensuring that students can attend school consistently and pursue their education without interruption.
Program Description
This program is dedicated to bridging the educational access gap for deaf and blind students in public schools across the Philippines. Recognizing the financial and logistical barriers that often prevent these students from attending school, this program provides monthly transportation allowances to ensure regular class attendance.
Eligible students receive financial support to cover their transportation costs, allowing them to focus on their education without the added burden of travel expenses.
To maintain eligibility, students must meet specific attendance requirements, ensuring that the support reaches those who are committed to their education.
