It is that time of year again for the annual Back to School Pencil Drive. The start of the school year can be an expensive time for parents. Springboard Foundation helps families from poor backgrounds by providing school supplies. Last year we helped over 3000 students from struggling families across the Philippines and this year we are aiming to help 5000!

Its easy to help:

  • Set up collection boxes in your office/school to collect new or used school bags/supplies and drop off the supplies at the Springboard office or contact us for collection
  • Make a cash donation to our BPI account: Springboard Foundation, Inc.
