Will I be able to continue sponsorship if my sponsored child goes on to college ortechnical school?
If you have sponsored a child up until graduation, you have helped to provide the child with a solid foundation for future success. You are not expected to continue sponsorship once a child graduates from high school, though we suggest continued sponsorship for a three month transition period. We do try to help our children obtain posthigh school vocational or professional training, or enroll in college if it is a viable plan. Our sponsor-a-scholar program allows a sponsor to help an individual through college, although it comes at a higher sponsorship fee. We work closely with the schools and enlist their help with career planning. There are some higher education scholarships and work study grants available in the Philippines, however even if a child qualifies for a full scholarship, the scholarship covers just the tuition and not the costs of books and other educational requirements. Fortunately the cost for public college education and training in the Philippines is low, compared to
