Helping students stay in school and build their futures
K.I.D.S. supports financially disadvantaged students at Cayetano Arellano High School in Manila with practical school-related assistance — helping cover the everyday costs that can otherwise become barriers to education.
What We Do
Public education in the Philippines is free, but getting to school is not. K.I.D.S. covers the everyday costs — transport, supplies, school expenses — that otherwise push capable students out.
