“Leaders are not born, they’re made.”
The PHINMA National Scholarship (PNS) program was launched in 2006 as PHINMA celebrated its 50th anniversary. With its mission to make lives better through education and nation-building, PNS not only provides financial assistance, but also provides mentorship and development opportunities. The program’s goal is to produce professionals on track to be leaders of the next generation. Through a unique formation, PNS aims to mold the scholars into socially engaged individuals who will contribute to the Philippines’ economic and social development.
To date, the program has produced over 250 licensed accountants, engineers, and teachers.
