READ : DSWD Educational Assistance
The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) is among the bodies of the Philippine government tasked to care for the welfare of Filipinos. Other than this, they also hold different opportunities like scholarships and job offers to those who want to be involved with them.
The announcement from DSWD Sec. Erwin Tulfo states that the people qualified to avail the DSWD educational assistance program are the following:
•Breadwinner
•Working student
•Has no family/Living with relative
•Child of a solo parent
•Has parents with no source of living
•Child of Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs)
•Child of Persons With Disabilities (PWDs)
•Child of HIV victims
•Victim of Domestic Abuse
•Victim of natural disasters
Every three children of a family are qualified to apply and register for the DSWD educational assistance program. Of course, telling the DSWD of their situation won’t seem fit—they would have to present requirements for the department to validate and authorize their application.
As per the announcement, it said that elementary or grade school students, high school students, and vocational/college level students can apply for the DSWD educational assistance program.
To all parents and students who are inquiring about how much they’re going to get, elementary students will receive P1,000; P2,000 for high school students; P3,000 for Senior High School and last but definitely not the least vocational/college level students will receive P4,000.
