PIZZA HUT GRANT
This grant is given solely because of one woman, Ella. Ella was a farm hand who had 9 kids. One child, number 8, was institutionalized at 7. Ella came to the institution each weekend and gave love and food to all the kids. Ella's number 2 and 8 are on the board of UAAAC following Ella's love and kindness. On May 23, 2017 Ella turned 82.

According to the "A Better Life" foundation, there are three different categories of street children:
- Children on the streets make up approximately 75% of the street children in the Philippines. They work on the streets but do not live there. They generally have a home to return to after working, and some even continue to attend school while working long hours on the streets.
- Children of the street make their homes on the street. They make up 25%-30% of the street children in the Philippines. They often create a sort of family with their fellow street children. Some of them still have family ties, but may either rarely tend to them or view them negatively.
- Completely abandoned children have no family ties and are entirely on their own for physical and psychological survival. They make up approximately 5%-10% of the street children in the Philippines.[2][3]
