GSIS will provide P10M aid to 25 public schools under CSR program

State pension fund Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) is set to release a total of P10 million to 25 public schools in partnership with the Department of Education (DepEd) under the Adopt-A-School Program (ASP). The activity is part of GSIS’s corporate social responsibility.

“We share President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s belief that education is the ‘bedrock of a prosperous society’. Our public schools need our support and assistance especially after the reopening of face-to-face classes in November.  In selecting the schools that do not have enough funds and must therefore be prioritized, we closely coordinated with DepEd,” GSIS president and general manager Wick Veloso said.

GSIS has increased the assistance for each school to P400,000 this year from P200,000 in 2014.

Veloso said that the funds will be used to provide assistive devices to the selected school such as  computers, internet connectivity and educational tools.

In the National Capital Region, the adopted schools are Navotas Elementary School, Constantino Elementary School in Valenzuela City, and Laiban Integrated School in Rizal.

In Luzon, the list includes Calawaan Elementary School in Ilocos Sur; Baccuit Elementary School in Cagayan; San Miguel Elementary School in Isabela; Pinayag National High School in Nueva Vizcaya; and Maguyepyep Integrated School in Abra. 

Also included are  Haligue Silangan National High School in Batangas City; Calpi Elementary School in Sorsogon; Aroroy East Central School in Masbate; Tagaytay Elementary School in Albay; and Bagumbayan Elementary School in Catanduanes.

GSIS’s adopted schools in Visayas are Celestino Diaz Integrated School in Capiz; Manjuyod Central Elementary School in Negros Oriental; Gaas Elementary School in Cebu; Nahawan Elementary School in Bohol; Hinoloasco National High School in Eastern Samar; and Catig Primary School in Southern Leyte and Hinoloasco National High School – Caglao-an Annex in Eastern Samar .

Ecleo Sr. Memorial National High School in Dinagat Island; Surigao City National High School in Surigao City; and Camp Edward Elementary School in Surigao del Norte.
