New Donations

Former scholar donates scholarship.  Ma. Fe  Perez Agudo, was a BSC graduate of 1983 and an SSRDF scholar during her college years.  Ma. Fe is now the president and chief executive officer of the Hyundai Asia Resources, Inc.  Ms. Agudo is sponsoring three additional scholars taking up accounting starting school year 2010-2011 - a way of helping some student as she had been helped a number of years ago.
The new grants can be for any degree course.
  Beautiful gesture!

Flor Marie Sta. Romana-Cruz, 2010 PAX Awardee, had a novel wish for gifts to her from classmates and friends on the occasion of her PAX Award by SSC: a donation to the scholarship fund in memory of her sister, Chona.  SSRDF received all the donations, increasing the Corazon Sta. Romana Memorial Scholarship Fund.

Another recent recipient of a scholarship fund in her honor was Sister Fe Andrea Collantes, OSB, who celebrated her golden jubilee of monastic profession last May 9, 2010.  This was the gift of her former students in SSC, led by Neni SR Cruz.  Sister Fe Andrea was visibly and happily moved by the thoughtfulness and love behind it all.

Ma. Clarissa (Mike) Palileo is sponsoring a scholarship in memory of her mother, Mrs. Amelia Palileo.  Her sister, Cristy, has indicated that she is joining Mike in this gesture.  Lately, word came from Salve Peña Neelarkavil that she is putting in a donation to the same memorial scholarship.

Mila Alvarez-Magno has likewise started a scholarship fund in memory of her mother, Mrs. Alvarez.

Teresita Jesswani, a former college teacher at SSC, has time and again sent in or brought donations for the SSRDF scholarship program.  Now living in Canada, Teresita visited SSC when she came home for some months to be with her sick sister who lives in Greater Manila.  She too will have a scholarship in her name.

Donations have come in too from former scholars now graduated and working in different areas and capacities.  Heartening!
