Many schools in the Philippines lack chairs for the students. The need to provide for healthy education environment for young students are not addressed in many schools. On the other hand, people with disability do not have jobs due to discrimination and physical limitations. They formed into self-help organizations such as cooperative that manufacture school chairs. By donating to 2,000 school chairs to public schools, 200 persons with disability will be given livelihood and income in chairs.
Due to social discrimination and physical limitations, many people with disability are jobless. Most of them depend on their families for food, a lot of them are begging in the streets. Some of them form self-help organization such as the cooperative that manufactures school chairs. This is the source of income but of course, the market is not steady. Aside from this, may students in public schools in the Philippines are deprived of school chair.
By donating funds to produce 2,000 school chairs, 2,000 students will benefit in the public schools and will provide a healthy learning environment for them. To add to this, the production of 2,000 chairs will provide jobs to 200 people with disability in the Philippines. They will have sources of income and they can be economically independent. They will no longer rely to others for their food and basic needs.
Having school facilities such as school chairs will provide a good learning environment to 2,000 young poor students in the Philippines. The majority of the students in public schools are poor children hence, a good education and environment can prepare them to have a better future. 200 People with disability manufacturing the school chairs will have an increased self-esteem that they can be productive and that they can be reliable despite their disability.
