Childhope Philippines Foundation, Inc
Restoring dignity and opportunity for street children in urban Philippines
About
Childhope Philippines Foundation, Inc. is a Manila-based organization focused on children in street situations and urban poor communities. It works from a rights-based philosophy that recognizes the inherent worth and dignity of street children, advocating for their right to live free from abuse and to access opportunities for self-expression and development. The organization aims to expand access to services and protection for marginalized children in urban areas.
We believe that street children, as human beings created in the image of the Supreme Being, have inherent worth and dignity, and therefore should be given the right to live, to be protected from any form of abuse, and to be given opportunities to express themselves and maximize their potentials, in order to help themselves and others. We envision a Philippines where urban poor children, especially children in street situations, gain access to the fulfilment of their rights, and have them protected and upheld, for them to develop and become accepted and responsible members of society. Childhope Philippines works towards the protection and fulfillment of children's rights through integrated direct service programs in education, health, and social services, aimed at the holistic development of Filipino street children in Metro Manila.
Childhope Philippines Foundation, Inc. is a Manila non-profit established in 1989 as the Asia regional office of Childhope International. It promotes the welfare and rights of children in street situations, and was renamed Childhope Philippines Foundation in 2013.
