Helping Hand Program
Helping Hand Program of Marissa's Kitchen provides a one time assistance or aide. For example, building classrooms, establishing reading centers, rehabilitating damaged physical structures that can be used by children, or providing electrical power.
Learning is easier when done in a conducive and an appropriate place. However, most public schools in the Philippines are not. Classrooms have no proper ventilation and lighting. Sometimes classes are held under a tree. Reading centers, which could help the learning process beyond school hours, are also not well maintained.
In some rural areas, children who have to cross a river or a stream don't attend school when heavy rains pour because it’s too dangerous. Many of the wooden bridges are just too unreliable.
The Purpose ...
Helping Hand addresses the issues above. At present, Marissa's Kitchen assists in the rehabilitation of some infrastructures in Daanbantayan, which are useful to a child's everyday life and essential to his growth as individual.
Expansion Plans
Marissa's Kitchen plans to build new classrooms in Libertad Primary School. At present, two separate grade levels have to fit in one room making too crowded and not conducive to learning. One of the Kindergarten classroom, has no walls, so whenever it rains, they cannot attend school.
