CULTIVATING YOUNG MINDS FOR THE FUTURE
Sparking creativity and realizing the youth's full potential
Remote rural barangays in the Philippines are not often considered dynamic. But by investing in education and supporting young Filipinos through their schooling, we help foster individuals who can act in ways that incrementally develop dynamic thought, behavior, and aspiration in their own lives. And by inspiration, in others' lives, too.
FPVI, to date, specifically supports access to secondary school for children, each selected as beneficiaries because they have experienced significant disadvantage yet showed resilience and promise.

LUCKY
Lucky was named by parents who obviously felt fortunate at his birth. Indeed, Lucky is one of two in the group, so far, who goes home to a supportive family. But because of the destruction and circumstances brought upon by Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda), Lucky's family had difficulties that necessitated he find support to continue his own high school education. Lucky is persevering and optimistic that is why he quickly flourished under FPVI’s care. He only learned to handle a paintbrush when he came to FPVI, but quickly produced the most extraordinary images.
