We provide and array of innovative and youth appealing materials many of which have been developed and produced by the Foundation.

From major theatre productions on issues affecting the lives of street children, to teaching small non-formal education classes for children with special needs

Below is an introduction to some major projects serving the purpose of education, information and advocacy.

In 1999 "Goldtooth, A Street Children Musical" gave a first-time-first-hand exposure to the realities of street children for about 20,000 students in Europe and in the Philippines. For most of them the musical was followed up with classes about children's rights and abuses hereof.

However, many teachers informed us that they were lacking up-to-date materials for teaching the issue. This became the trigger to the production of the collection of the short stories, "Black Angels, Street Children Realities".

"Black Angels, Street Children Realities" is a collection of 11 short stories with background information and teachers' guidelines for use in the classroom. 

Animation Toolkits

Due to the alarming number of children in South East Asia who have become victims of child sexual abuse and sexual exploitation, Stairway has been compelled to become actively involved in the growing local and international network fighting against child sexual abuse and exploitation. Currently, SFI trains hundreds of teachers, social workers, church people, organizations and parents in an attempt to promote personal safety programs in schools, churches and communities. The workshops are creative, interactive and uses animation as a mode of presentation.

Our award winning animated videos and supporting materials are a source of inspiration to all of those who want to listen to young people and help them.
