Uplift Education in the Philippines

Dear Supporter,

We are writing to share with you a comprehensive report on the impact your donations have had so far. The report is attached in PDF format below.

We have been overwhelmed by the generosity of donors from all over the world,  and the compassion of local volunteers that have been vital to reaching the most vulnerable communities during this crisis.

We are especially grateful to our local partners, including Bayanihan Mission, who has been amazing in helping mobilise volunteers that have helped us throughout this response in finding, connecting with and reaching the most vulnerable people and communities. A big 'Thank You' to everyone for standing with the people who require the most help.  

On April 22nd, it was announced that the enhanced quarantine in Cebu will be extended until May 15th, which will continue to have a devesting impact on children and families who continue to be without income and rely on government provisions but are also overwhelmed by the size of this crisis. We will continue our efforts to keep reaching the hardest hit by the ECQ and those who fall through the cracks of support systems. 

If you are encouraged by the work we are doing, please do consider sharing the project with your network, and if your circumstances allow, please consider making an additional gift. We will continue to keep you informed about the work we doing and the impact your donation is having.

Wherever you are reading this, please continue to keep your families and communities safe and healthy.
