Wereldkinderen has ended support for this project
Manila, The Philippines
Selection and training of foster families
Wereldkinderen has financially supported KBF's foster care project until 2023. This project has now been taken over by NACC in the Philippines.
Children who cannot live at home (temporarily) often end up in large-scale residential care centers in Manila, unfortunately. Growing up in a family setting is almost always better for children’s development. This is also more cost-efficient.
Our Philippino partner organisation Kaisahang Buhay Foundation (KBF) provides foster care as alternative care for children in need.
The aim of the project is to develop a well-functioning and responsive foster care system. This is vital to protect children.
