DSWD Student Educational Assistance: Who Are Qualified to Apply

Guide on DSWD Student Educational Assistance Application Qualifications

DSWD STUDENT EDUCATIONAL ASSISTANCE – Here is a guide on who are qualified to apply for the educational assistance offered by the Department of Social Welfare and Development.

Another school year is about to begin in the Philippines. The Department of Education (DepEd) set August 22 as the first day of the school year 2022-2023. Blended learning or the combination of distance learning and face-to-face classes will be implemented in most schools nationwide.

According to DepEd, 90% of the schools in the country including state colleges and universities are ready for in-person classes. Most members of the teaching and non-teaching personnel are also vaccinated against COVID-19.

However, there are a lot of students and parents who are financially struggling now due to various reasons. DepEd has even previously called for donations of school supplies from the private sector to help the students who cannot really afford to buy the things they will need for school.

  1. Its difficult to receive this assistance we all know it’s not fair,,me I’m a single mom but the government of DSWD here in our province Bukidnon didn’t care about us,,I only have one child in elementary but couldn’t get that cash assistance ,Why? because DSWD in here’ making unfair release and choose only 200 persons/days thousands of people around but only 200to 300 people qualify? Every release..:( how sad..
