Balanga City foundation earns P10-M for scholars
BALANGA CITY–The city government of Balanga revealed that its newly founded University Town of the Peninsula Foundation, Inc. earned P10 million from private donors which will be used to increase the number of scholars in the city.
Fifty new scholars every year will be added to the current 2,000 beneficiaries from Balanga City in the Iskolar ng Bataan program, said Mayor Jose Enrique Garcia III.
“As support of the private sector to our vision, they have built a foundation, the University Town of the Peninsula Foundation, Inc.
Through the leadership of Chairman Jojo Dispo, the foundation held a fund raising activity last December, the premiere of the Balanga UTown Musical Mini-Series,” said Garcia.
This mini-series aims to promote the city’s vision of becoming a world-class university town by 2020 where education is prioritized and anchored onto economic developments, business potentials, and job opportunities.
Citizens have expressed gratitude over the consistent scholarship program which shoulders the annual P12,000 tuition fee of each college beneficiary.
“Thank you for your Iskolar ng Bataan. It’s a great help to my niece taking up Nursing. You are highly commended for the great deed in acknowledging a student’s excellence in their education,” said one Gina Mercado Rivera.
Garcia also disclosed that the city government is mulling on pushing innovative educational projects this year that include the use of tablet computers in schools in replacement of workbooks for students.
The pilot testing of the tablet computers will be done in selected public schools in the city and its use is seen as a “dynamic and interactive” way of learning that cuts the cost of buying papers, pencils and other school supplies.
“The makers of these digital workbooks are the excellent members of the University Town Education Council. It is now much more interesting for students to study and accomplish their assignments,” said Garcia.
He added that the cost of buying the tablet computers is lesser than the total cost of buying books, papers and other learning tools, and that these gadgets can be used over again by other students. ● (PIA 3)
