Uplift Education in the Philippines

Dear Partners,

As we enter the second quarter of 2025 and navigate the early months of the rainy season, we are reminded that meaningful growth often takes root under the most challenging conditions.

 ‘Over the last 90 days’  - FundLife and Girls Got This have remained steadfast in our commitment to creating safe, inclusive, and empowering spaces for children and youth. Despite the unpredictability of the season, our young participants continue to demonstrate remarkable resilience, showing up each day with a willingness to learn, lead, and grow.

Through a combination of sport-based learning, mentorship, and life skills education, we have worked to ensure that every child we reach is supported not only academically and emotionally but also as an emerging leader within their community.

We're proud to share with you the highlights of our collective efforts from this quarter, made possible because of your continued support.

• Delivered 131 after-school football and futsal sessions, integrating play-based learning with life skills topics such as water conservation, road safety, environmental awareness, and empathy-building.
• Facilitated 87 study support sessions focusing on friendship building, positivity, gratitude, and personal development to support emotional well-being and social connections among youth.
• Conducted 30 mentorship sessions providing targeted guidance on career planning, personal health, leadership, and resilience for adolescent girls and vulnerable youth.
• Organized 3 capacity-building workshops for youth mentors and educators on first aid, environmental sustainability, and digital marketing, equipping them with practical tools to better support children’s holistic development.
• Conducted community-based WASH education sessions through the Mobile WASH initiative, combining sports and environmental education to promote safe water practices and hygiene.
• Achieved global recognition with FundLife young leaders winning the Water Champions Project, highlighting youth-led efforts addressing local water challenges through sports and WASH initiatives.

These milestones reflect the tangible impact of your generosity and belief in every child’s potential.

Thank you for standing with us. Your continued support enables us to reach more young people, build stronger communities, and create lasting change.

With gratitude,

GGT Team
