Wawa Elementary School in Navotas, the Philippines, is a small school with about 660 students. The school is decorated with various paper crafts such as beautiful flowers, and colorful murals. It makes you feel like you are entering a world in a fairy tale.

However, what children experience there is not like the world in a fairy tale. Many children attend classes without basic school supplies such as notebooks and pencils. The Intl. WeLoveU Foundation (hereinafter the WeLoveU) heard of the situation of the school from the Ministry of Education of the Philippines and the Navotas City Office of Education. Principal Alejandro Roque wrote down what they needed and asked the WeLoveU for help.
