The
University of Southeastern Philippines (USeP) signed two Memorandums of
Agreement (MOA) from Lifebank Foundation, Inc. (LBF) and Overseas
Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA) on May 26, 2014.
The MOAs between USeP and the two other agencies are in line with the University’s goal to pursue its mission further, with the extent of reaching out to various for-profit and non-profit organizations.
Offering scholarship grants to deserving students is one way of fulfilling the University’s social responsibility. Aside from maintaining a higher quality of education, the University also aims to make this learning opportunity accessible to students from all facets of life.
Lifebank Foundation, Inc. is a non-stock, non-profit organization by virtue of the Philippine Law with juridical capacity which was represented by Mr. Manuel P. Perlas, President, LBF. The MOA undertakes to provide financial assistance including tuition and miscellaneous fees to the qualified scholar.
The Overseas Workers Welfare Administration on the other hand is a government agency attached to the Department of Labor and Employment. Headed by Mr. Eduardo E. Bellido, OWWA Regional Director, the agency is mandated to promote the welfare and protect the interest of Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) and their families.
Funded by the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO), OWWA administered an educational grant known as Congressional Migrant Workers Scholarship Program (CMWSP) with Php 60,000.00 worth of financial assistance per school year to deserving migrant workers and their families who intend to pursue courses in the field of Science and Technology as identified by DOST.
OWWA also established an educational grant known as Education for Development Scholarship Program (EDSP) with the same financial aid to qualified dependents/beneficiaries of member-OFWs for any baccalaureate course in a CHED-accredited college or university.
The USeP, together with LBF and OWWA, has created a new synergy towards achieving a single goal which is to provide high quality education and make it equally accessible to all, regardless of their status. [YConcepcion]
