Empowering people through education

Education is one area close to the heart of Aboitiz Foundation, and AboitizPower subsidiaries have staunchly shown their support towards this initiative by providing educational opportunities through scholarships and financial assistance as well as allotting substantial amounts for facilities and equipment and the construction of classrooms in their respective service communities.

Hedcor, Inc; Davao Light and Power Corp.; Cotabato Light and Power Corp.; Luzon Hydro Corp.; Cebu Private Power Corp.; Cebu Energy Development Corp.; Western Mindanao Power Corp.; and Southern Philippines Power Corp. have given out scholarships to underprivileged, but fully deserving students from pre-school to college.

College graduates of these scholarship programs are then given the opportunity to apply for jobs in Aboitiz companies.

Likewise, AboitizPower has staunchly supported the Aboitiz Foundation’s Integrated Computerization Program, whose mission is to provide public schools access to computers and integrate computer education in their curriculum.

Quite as vital as providing educational opportunities to the less privileged is ensuring that students are also provided with facilities and equipment conducive to learning. To this end, AboitizPower’s Hedcor, Inc.; SN Aboitiz Power Corp.; Luzon Hydro Corp.; STEAG State Power Corp.; Cebu Private Power Corp.; East Asia Utilities Corp; Cebu Energy Development Corp.; Western Mindanao Power Corp.; and Southern Philippines Power Corp. have stepped up by granting equipment to schools in their respective communities.

AboitizPower subsidiaries have likewise provided significant funding for the construction of classrooms in Davao and Iligan City.
