expressed gratitude to the Lord for this beautiful partnership. He thanked ANCOP for providing

vital support t enable poor students complete their four-year courses. One important aspect of

this partnership is which would help the parents of the scholars with livelihood opportunities.

office included Jimmy Ilagan, ANCOP President; Elmer Cadiz, Operations Manager and Ethelyn

Balenton, Education Program Head. Caritas Manila was represented by Rev. Fr. Anton CT

Pascual, Executive Director and Helen Oreto, Social Development Head..
