School for Anne, Sheila and Sofia

Donation protected
I'm raising money for three of my cousins in the Philippines (Sheila, Anne and Sofia) whose Dad (Tito Puroy) is recovering from a recent life-saving surgery.

Despite their economic disadvantage, compounded by significant loss of income (their Dad was the primary bread-winner) and the stress that comes with a hospitalized family member, the girls have remained incredibly resilient.  

To ease their present burden and to help secure a brighter future for Sheila, Anne and Sofia, I am raising money for their schooling.  This would cover tuition, uniform, food, books and stationery, as well as any health exams they may need for the next 6 years (and potentially more).

______________________________

My mum (the sister of Tito Puroy and one of eight siblings) was almost pulled out of school due to severe economic hardship at about the same age as Sofia (she's currently in grade 3).  Education pulled my mum out of extreme poverty and has so far given back so much to her family and the community in the Philippines.

I would be super appreciative if you can help meet this goal.  I am very hopeful that it will and if it exceeds this target, I will donate the excess to an actual organization that deals with educational access for disadvantaged kids.

Education is not a privilege and it should be accessible to everyone, everywhere - it can really turn lives around, not just for the student but potentially a whole community.
