Providing scholarship and meal assistance for 30 needy students coming from Davao Episcopal Area
In some villages in the Philippines, water pumps are the main source of potable water. One water pump supplies water to around 50 families where they get their water for drinking, laundry, animals' needs and watering of plants. Dry season, to produce unlimited supply of a small amount of water should be poured to the pump first. This is the concept of granting scholarship to 30 students from Annual Conferences of the Davao Episcopal Area. Once they graduate, they easily find jobs, help their families, the church and community. They can help their own family members especially their younger siblings in sending to school. They become inspiration to their clans because most of them were the first to have college degree from their community. The scholarship helped them a lot in the realizing their dreams. The scholarship served as their bridge where they came from, to being at their best. The scholarship helped them to have access, which resulted in better a quality of life. They were blessed, and they become blessings.
To help people, mostly the youth to finish their college degree to be better equipped in the work God has entrusted to them. Through Scholarship and meal assistance, they can finish their college degree. Once they are already trained and with the college diploma, they can easily be employed. They can help others who once like them also needed help. They can better work in the church, and inspire others to help in the ministry.
A more empowered community. With the presence and the ministry of our graduates, we can expect a better community where the reign of God is experienced.
