40 Young Minds Get Scholarship through Project H.E.L.E.N Adopt-A-Scholar Program

Forty adopted scholars from Camp 7 Elementary School of the Project H.E.L.E.N. Adopt-A-Scholar Program received educational assistance on February 3, 2022, in a ceremony that exemplified the program’s dedication to literacy development and reading comprehension. Their kits include school supplies and wellness packs.

For over a decade, the Project H.E.L.E.N. Adopt-A-Scholar Program has been a beacon of hope for underprivileged students, lighting up the path to learning and a brighter future. Rooted in the deep-seated belief that poverty should not be a barrier to accessing quality education, the program is designed to support young minds with exceptional academic promise.

This life-changing project became a reality through the unwavering commitment of the partners and sponsors of U.C. Project H.E.L.E.N. Over the years, this program has provided invaluable support to 380 students, helping them complete their primary education. It continues to offer assistance to needy pupils with exceptional academic performance.

The heart of the Project H.E.L.E.N. Adopt-A-Scholar Program beats to the rhythm of empowerment through education. It has consistently paved the way for these students to break free from poverty, opening the doors to quality education and a chance to pursue their dreams. The transformation witnessed from 2010 to 2022 is nothing short of profound. Once needing assistance, these students have now evolved into future leaders, innovators, and contributors to society.

In addition to providing school supplies and wellness packs, the scholars’ miscellaneous fees were paid in full, further reducing the financial burden on their families. A storytelling session was held for the students to enhance literacy development and reading comprehension, igniting their love for reading.

To express their heartfelt gratitude, the students crafted various thank-you cards. They presented them to the members of the Project H.E.L.E.N. Team, symbolizing the bond forged between the program and the beneficiaries.

The success of the Project H.E.L.E.N. Adopt-A-Scholar Program can be attributed to its organization, its profound impact on the students, and its unwavering relevance to the community’s educational needs. It exemplifies the essence of humanism and the effectiveness of collaborative efforts in making a significant difference in the lives of young scholars.
