Moving Up!
A total of 245 Adopt-A-Scholar Program beneficiaries from Alabang Elementary School and Bayanan Elementary School Main in Muntinlupa City are now Grade 6 completers.
The Insular Foundation led by Trustees InLife Executive Chairperson Nina Aguas and President and CEO Raoul Littaua hosted a Moving Up Ceremony to celebrate the graduation of the sixth batch of scholars.
During the event, Insular Foundation Executive Director Ana Soriano encouraged the students to continue learning. “Ang edukasyon ay nagbibigay sa inyo ng kumpiyansa upang tuparin ang inyong mga pangarap, ng mga kasanayan upang malampasan ang mga hamon, at ng karunungan upang makapag-ambag nang positibo sa lipunan. Stay curious, work hard, and never stop learning. Your potential is limitless, and with determination and perseverance, you can achieve anything you set your mind to.”
Two scholars expressed their appreciation to the Insular Foundation.
“Nagpapasalamat kami sa pagkasangkapan ng Panginoon sa Insular Foundation upang kami ay makapagtapos sa pamamagitan ng mga benepisyo na nagamit po namin sa aming pag-aaral,” said Sean Vincent Caunan from Alabang Elementary School.
“Sa loob ng anim na taon ay hindi niyo po kami binitawan, bagkus ay nagpatuloy po kayo sa pagbibigay ng suporta dumating man ang pandemyang dulot ng Covid-19. Ngayon na magtatapos na po kami sa Grade 6 ay makakaasa po kayo na hindi dito matatapos ang lahat, bagkus ay patuloy kaming mag-aaral at magiging matagumpay din kami tulad ninyo,” said Chris Martin Pineda from Bayanan Elementary School Main.
Since 2003, the Adopt-A-Scholar Program enables InLife employees to adopt Grade 1 students from the Foundation’s partner schools. Through the yearly employees’ donation, the Foundation provides school uniform and shoes, bags and school supplies, and other school requirements until Grade 6.
