How did a simple and noble educator change and touched the lives of millions of Filipinos? It was through his selfless endeavor, to provide the essential rudiments of education to the less fortunate.

This legislation is based on the notion that regardless of race or socioeconomic position, the freedom to educate oneself will always be a part of your basic right as a Filipino citizen, no matter how expensive or inexpensive it may be. This might be the driving force behind Efren Peñaflorida's mission to make great education available to even the lowest of the poor

With this remarkable achievement by a Filipino educator, he has indeed proven that education is not a luxury; but, a privilege for every Filipino

The goals of this encouraging adolescent alliance include providing youth awareness initiatives, self and talent development activities, and emphasizing the significance of community service As a result, in order to secure its success, it joined with Club 8586, another Filipino youth-oriented organization.
