The HOPE Classroom
We believe every Filipino child deserves a safe and comfortable environment where they can grow and learn the skills crucial for a promising future. We work closely with the Department of Education to identify schools with classroom shortages and to ensure that our classroom construction follows the department’s building specifications.
WHAT’S INSIDE?
A chalkboard, teacher’s table and wall fans are included in every HOPE build.
A STABLE STRUCTURE
Each 7m x 9m classroom is designed to withstand the harsh weather conditions in the areas we build.
ATTENTION TO DETAIL
We use a cathedral style ceiling and provide bigger windows for better ventilation.
HYGIENE MATTERS
Every HOPE classroom has its own lavatory to promote proper hygiene amongst the students.
THANK YOU WALL
A wall outside each classroom is dedicated to our partners who help make our builds possible.
Classroom Build Promise
We work closely with our partners and oversee classroom construction from start to finish for transparency, accountability, and efficiency.
Open Bidding
We conduct open bidding to provide the best value to each location and share the results for public transparency.
