DSWD Educational Cash Assistance Aids Poor but Deserving Students
DSWD offers an Educational Cash Assistance for indigent students in elementary, high school, and college to help them in their school fees.
There are countless Filipino students in the country who want to study in school but they were born in poor financial situations. The school tuition fees, miscellaneous fees, and the expenses on school supplies may be additional challenge for the parents to provide.
To help the Filipino families, the Department of Social Welfare and Development launched the Educational Assistance for qualified students in the form of cash. The government agency set different monetary benefits for student beneficiaries under the program based on their grade or year level.
- Elementary Student — Php 1,000
- Junior High School Student — Php 2,000
- Senior High School Student — Php 3,000
- Vocational/College Student — Php 4,000
The DSWD Educational Cash Assistance intends to help students in paying for their school fees, books, and other necessary expenses so they can focus in studying. The government agency has cited the eligibility criteria under the assistance offer.
The Department of Social Welfare and Development clarified that the Educational Cash Assistance is not a scholarship. It is an educational aid for the indigents and those belonging to poor, marginalized, and vulnerable families in the Philippines.
DSWD wants to give students the liberty to devote their time to their studies so they can plan out their target careers instead of worrying where to get the money for their school fees. Surely, this move does not just give students the chance to focus on their studies but also eases the financial burden of countless parents in the country.
The DSWD Educational Asssistance is actually one of the offers of the government agency under the Assistance To Individuals in Crisis Situation program. More popularly called the AICS, the program also includes the Medical Assistance, Funeral Assistance, Transportation Assistance, and Food Assistance.
