"The educated Filipino"


In the Philippines education is a priority. All parents of every family want their children to be college graduates, all parents want their children to have degrees in order to have a successful life.

However not every Filipino can afford college education but in our children today even if they have no means to go to college they still dream of being able to go to a college where they can finish their studies and hopefully to have a degree in order to help their families. One person worth noting that is endeavoring to educate our Filipino youth is Mr. Efren PeƱaflorida, a person who travels along with his cart to educate the youth. His cart is where the learning begins, with his cart he teaches, educates and guides the youth. Steering them away from gang memberships, drugs, smoking, and other vices while giving them hope that they can become someone in their life. Someone that can accomplish something and even be world renowned in doing so.

Mr. PeƱaflorida is a great example for future generations, an example of filipino that we can truly be proud of. We should follow his example and not just turn a blind eye to things that are happening around us.
