Welcome to streetlight.org

What is possible to accomplish with a burning heart? What does it take to change someone’s life to the better? How can we give hope to people living without hope? Since January 2006 Streetlight has been working with children living in the streets of Tacloban, Philippines. Through our programs and with our time, affection and love, we try to help them build a better future. A future without drugs, prostitution or starvation. Streetlight also welcomes you to participate in our work in changing people’s future, creating hope where there is none. All you need is a burning heart
