LOANS
The PSHF's main goal is to provide loans to poor families in the Philippines. The PSHF's intention is to encourage self-help so the loans are used as capital for small businesses. Read more.

.
GRANTS
We also help individuals with grants for unaffordable medical treatment, housing assistance, business revival and training, specifically through organic farming seminars. Read more.

LIGHTHOUSE LEARNING CENTER
In 1997, we branched out and opened a preschool, the LLC, in Bulacao, a poor suburb in Cebu city. The primary goal of the school is to provide good quality and affordable education to poor children. Read more.

.
FARM
We have a 2.3 hectare plot of land on the island of Guimaras which we are developing into a pioneering farm for the practice of permaculture and in the future, we hope, a training centre for sustainable agriculture. Read more.

.
ENVIRONMENT
The PSHF has set up an environmental arm in order to help address the effects of pollution and global warming in the areas where it operates. The initial step taken towards this end is the clean up of the creek in Guba village in Santa Catalina, Negros Oriental.
