PROJECT PROPOSAL

I. Identifying Information
Project Title : “Sumali Ka, Matuto Ka” Reading Program
Proponent : TCC students

Implementing Period : April - May 2024
Beneficiaries : Homeless and Non- Readers Children
Total Project cost : PHP 10,000

II. Background and Rationale

School feeding programs are beneficial for the physical, mental, and psycho
social development of school-age children and adolescents, particularly those in
low- and middle-income countries For children with significant learning
difficulties, the benefits of acquiring literacy skills may exceed the mere fact of
attaining a functionally useful level of reading and writing skill. Progress in
reading can develop speech and language skills, auditory perceptual skills and
working memory function: these are all areas where children with complex needs,
for example, usually display difficulties. We recognize the importance of ensuring
that their learning of literacy/ reading skills realizes their latent abilities as fully as
possible in order to give them maximum independence and opportunities to
engage in employment. We will ensure that all children have equal access to the
curriculum, regardless of ability.
Children with specific reading, speech and language or other sensory
developmental difficulties will be identified and supported through support
programme in school and external help will be sought where necessary.

III. Project Description

The Reading Program for non- educated and homeless kids will start on
April 2024 until May 2024 wherein the Tarlac Market Place will mentor the 50
homeless children. Department of Education (DepEd) with the help of Tarlac
Christian College (TCC), will provide books, old and not used books to be
specific, every weekends for a whole 2 (two) months. This books should provide
knowledge that homeless children need to learn and grown up in a smart way.
Furthermore, we will also provide food meals for homeless children to those who
will get starve from learning. Thereupon, education is the most important to
children to have a better future ahead of them and also foods is also important to
have a good health at all cost.
