The Tuloy Foundation is a Philippines-based non-government, not-for-profit organization for marginalized children registered with the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission in 1996 and licensed and accredited by the Department of Social Welfare and Development to “provide residential care services for disadvantaged children and youth”. It was founded in 1993 by Fr. Marciano "Rocky" G. Evangelista of the Salesians of Don Bosco with ten lay volunteers committed to the cause of poor, abandoned, homeless children. It pursues the charism of St. John Bosco who dedicated himself to the care and training of poor boys in the 19th century. ==History== It traces its history back to 1993, when Fr. Rocky Evangelista, SDB began Tuloy in a small room in St. John Bosco Parish Compound, Makati City with 12 children. Two years later, Tuloy received funding to construct a 3.5-storey building within the compound in Makati. The new building had complete facilities including dorms, study area, dining room, and kitchen. It was able to accommodate up to 130 children at a time.〔(Tuloy Foundation, Inc. - History )〕 With the help and approval of the Department of Education, Tuloy designed a curriculum especially for street children. In 1997, Tuloy opened a school able to accommodate a maximum of 230 students. 〔(Tuloy Foundation, Inc. - History )〕 In 2001, Tuloy moved to a 4.5-hectare Streetchildren Village in Alabang, Muntinlupa leased from the Department of Social Welfare and Development. 〔(‘Tuloy’ restores the dignity of a child - INQUIRER.net, Philippine News for Filipinos )〕〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tuloy Foundation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
