GIVE DROPOUTS A CHANCE TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL

Organization information

Young Focus for Education and Development Foundation, Inc.

Location: Manila, Philippines

Summary

Young Focus has a strong passion for disadvantaged children who have dropped out of school, wanting to give every child - from the Smokey Mountain squatter area in Manila - the chance to discover and develop their talents, as well as recapture their love for learning. Young Focus 'Catch-UP' provides opportunities for school dropouts to go back to school through different programs, depending on age and academic level. The goal is that after a year they are ready to go to a regular school.
