Paying Forward with the PHINMA Scholars
The education graduates of the PHINMA National Scholarship (PNS) are highly encouraged to work in public schools. This year, the PHINMA Group chose to support these graduates in public schools by joining their Brigada Eskwela in their respective schools. Among these alumni are Regine Esquilla of Ninoy Aquino Senior High School, Ronalie Asto-Coco of Caloocan National Science and Technology High School, and Jasper Angeles of Sitero Francisco Memorial National High School.
