I. Cebu Rural Christian Mission Ministry - Scholarships

We believe that the best way to uplift the socio-economic conditions to those in the project area is through education. The foundation provides scholarships to deserving students who otherwise are unable to attend school due to their economic situations. The scholarships are provided from high school to college students; some past scholars were seminary students.

As of April 2009, there are 24 students receiving scholarships. These students are from Basak, Sac-on and Paril --- these are mountainous, interior areas in Cebu. These students are very motivated that some have to travel far to get to their schools; some have part-time/odd jobs to also help with their educational expenses. These students are also actively involved in the church life and youth leadership.
