COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PHILIPPINES

http://waterforwater.com.au/images/larger_end.png
by Water For Water - Tuesday, January 15, 2013 


Water For Water with your help have been able to further invest into the Caloocan City community by financially supporting two community development programs.

The first program Water For Water have invested into is a childhood education program.

Not only do Water For Water want to see the day that every single person has access to clean safe water but the day that every child is given the opportunity to read, write and count.

For every ten 5-year-old children in The Philippines, only 6 have access to preschool education. Many parents and communities have to be convinced of the importance of early childhood education. 

Along with our partners Water For Water launched a free early childhood program which is located in community centre attached to the water station. The early childhood program is opened to any child in the Caloocan City community who cannot afford to go to school. There are currently 28 children in the program.

The picture above is of Hans Lucas who is 5 years old and is learning to read and write so that one day he can become a police officer. 

With every bottle of Water For Water sold, 100% of Water For Water's profits go to funding this program, or you can make a donation here!
