Because Manila and other major cities in the Philippines are in Luzon, there are numerous charitable organizations already serving the needs of Filipino citizens living in that region. Therefore, READ Philippines will concentrate its efforts in the Visayas and Mindanao regions at this time. However, Trustees may approve special projects for the benefit of indigenous and poor children in very remote areas of Luzon.
Beneficiaries in economically and geographically disadvantaged communities in Visayas and Mindanao are eligible to apply for support.
You may submit a letter addressed to READ Philippines describing your school, community and prioritized list of the type of support needed (books, encyclopedias, computer, etc.). Please include the name of the school or library, location (barangay, town, province), number of students and teachers, and telephone numbers. We also require information on the community (population size, sources of livelihood, etc.)
An application form is also available online at http://www.readpilipinas.org/beneficiaries.htm.
Upon initial review of the application or letter request, READ Philippines may ask for additional information to fully evaluate the application. A site visit by a program administrator or designated READ Philippines representative may be conducted as part of the evaluation process.
The letter and application can be sent via email (info@readpilipinas.org) or postal mail to:
