DSWD Educational Assistance Program 2022 | For Students Nationwide

The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) is mandated by law to develop, administer and implement comprehensive social welfare programs designed to uplift the living conditions and empower the disadvantaged children, youth, women, older persons, persons with disabilities, families in crisis or at-risk and communities needing assistance.

The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) reported the dissemination of the Educational Cash Assistance across the country.

DSWD Secretary Erwin Tulfo authoritatively declared that they will disperse monetary help to qualified poor understudies each Saturday until September 24, 2022.

This drive is under the Assistance to Individuals in Crisis Situations (AICS) Program. For the people who are in the region, there is now a continuous appropriation in the DSWD Field Offices across the country.

What is the DSWD Educational Assistance Program?

The DSWD educational assistance program is financial aid for the education of certain eligible people. Back in March of 2018, they clarified that they were not offering a scholarship; they were offering a type of educational assistance for indigent students and other qualified students.

How much do interested applicants get?

To all parents and students who are inquiring about how much they’re going to get, elementary students will receive P1,000; P2,000 for high school students; P3,000 for Senior High School, and last but definitely not the least vocational/college level students will receive P4,000.

“Magsisimula ang Educational Assistance payout sa ika-20 ng Agosto 2022 at sa mga susunod na Sabado – Agosto 27, Setyembre 3, 10, 17 at 24,” Sec. E. Tulfo said in a Facebook post.

Three children from each household are entitled to apply and enroll in the DSWD Educational Assistance Program. Of course, telling DSWD what’s going on doesn’t seem right. They must request the department to verify and approve their application. — PhilippineGo.com
