Right Start, registered under the name Right Start Community Development, Inc. is a non-stock, non-profit, non-government organization for underprivileged Filipino children.

Through our center, Right Start offers afterschool programs where children can play, read books, learn music/dance/sports and we have fun art activities. At Right Start, we are committed to impart godly values to these children, to help mold their character, and to build their confidence through their natural talents so they can become well-rounded and responsible citizens of our society. Right Start hopes that these children, who may also be tomorrow’s future leaders, can break the cycle of poverty in their generation.
