Apat Biyaya Foundation was started by friends who were brought together by a common desire to make a difference in the lives of the disadvantaged.
The name itself, which literally means four blessings stemmed from the birth of the founder’s quadruplets.
The foundation’s focus is on mobilizing people and resources in creating educational initiatives that make a positive and measurable difference in the lives of marginalized children and their families.
With the help of social workers, the organization finds beneficiaries – children who are driven to achieve their academic goals despite economic hardships – and provides them with the resources they need to succeed.
Vision
A Philippines where every child’s right to sustenance, well-being and education is assured.
Mission
To help and guide marginalized children with the opportunity to acquire good education and to strengthen the capacity of parents that would ultimately provide them with means to procure food for their babies, to put clothes on their backs and to build roofs over their heads.
Beneficiaries
The Foundation will be getting beneficiaries from Barangay Talipapa, Novaliches. For their formal education, they will be enrolled at Placido Del Mundo Elementary School.
For health monitoring, the beneficiaries together with their families will be enrolled in at the Talipapa Health Center.
The age bracket of the target beneficiaries ranges from six (6) years old up to 19 years old. This is from elementary until K-12 which covers a maximum of 12 years of schooling.
The minimum income of the parent-beneficiaries must fall below Two Hundred Pesos per day (P200.00).
Parameters are set to validate the compliance of the beneficiaries. Though the main objective of Apat Biyaya Foundation is to give aid, the Foundation strongly believes that the first step in helping someone is by providing them the means to help themselves.
