We believe that every child deserves the chance to dream and hope for a brighter future.
Our foundation is dedicated to enriching the lives of underprivileged children by providing them with access to quality education and the resources they need to transform their lives.
Through education, we empower them to break the cycle of poverty and create a future filled with opportunity and promise.
- Kerry Parsons
He knew that to increase his philanthropic work, he had to formalize his approach.
He searched for a way to establish his goals.
Hence the creation of the foundation.
Kerry Parsons Family Foundation, Inc. (KPPFI) was formally initiated in 2005.
All projects of the foundation is fully funded by the founder and his family’s business.
For our Primary and Secondary Students:
Providing underprivileged children / students with one meal a day encourages them to stay in school. This support not only keeps them in school but also increases their chances of progressing to high school, ultimately paving the way for a brighter future.
For the University Students:
Our goal is to provide these students with the best education possible, empowering them to graduate from top universities in the city and become successful professionals. In doing so, they will have the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the world, breaking the cycle of poverty and inspiring future generations.
Our support includes the following:
• ONE MEAL A DAY
• SCHOOL CONTRIBUTION FEES
• SCHOOL SUPPLIES (i.e. pens, pencils, notebooks, etc)
• SCHOOL BOOKS, ETC
• UNIFORM AND CLOTHES
• MEDICAL CARE is on a case-to-case basis.
Our commitment is to have all our sponsored children in this program complete HIGH SCHOOL.
College/University and/or Vocational training will be offered on a case by case-basis sponsorship and will be assessed upon completion of High School.
For our University and Vocational Students, above-average grade is a must because this is an actual full-academic sponsorship program.
Once again, basis for sponsorship is that the student is from a poor background, most applicants come from remote areas outside of the city but in this program, they must a have the academic capability to succeed.
Our applicants for this program have to have high marks/grades in order for them to be accepted. They have to also be determined and committed to stay in the program.
The applicants accepted in this program will live in the dormitory with all expenses paid and will go to the top universities in the city.
