Insular Foundation helps students achieve dreams through scholarship
Insular Foundation, InLife’s corporate social responsibility arm, recently awarded college scholarship grants to 26 first-year students taking up Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) courses.
The Foundation awarded Gold Eagle College Scholarship Grants to 11 students from the University of the Philippines Diliman (UPD); and 15 students from other partner schools, namely, Aurora State College of Science and Technology, Benguet State University, Bohol Island State University, Central Mindanao University, and Davao Oriental State University. The scholarship benefits include stipend, transportation and book allowance.
During the scholars’ orientation program, Insular Foundation Executive Director Ana Soriano expressed optimism that the scholarship grant will help the students achieve their dreams and live better lives.
“The reason why we continue the Insular Foundation Gold Eagle College Scholarship Grant every year is to be able to help students like you reach your personal dreams, with the hope that you will use your acquired knowledge and skills to make life better. When you graduate, you will be able to help your family enjoy a more comfortable life. When you become serious professionals like a Civil Engineer, Chemical Engineer, Mathematicians, Statisticians, and other fields in the sciences, your impact will expand in the bigger community,” she said.
Speaking on behalf of the scholars, UPD student Blessilyn Ramos thanked the Foundation for easing their financial burden and empowering them with the gift of education. “As Gold Eagle Scholars, we are immensely grateful for the privilege of accessing quality education, opportunities for professional growth, and a supportive community. Your kindness and trust in our potential give profound meaning to our academic journey—it motivates us to instill discipline in ourselves, persevere despite countless challenges, and become more conscious of the impact we can create,” she said.
Bohol Island State University student Charity Joy Roma said the scholarship grant motivates her to study harder and inspires her to give back to others someday. “The scholarship has provided me the means to focus on my studies and strive toward my dreams. More importantly, it has reminded me of the power of community and generosity in transforming lives. To the Insular Foundation, thank you for your unwavering dedication to education and empowerment,” she said.
