INITIATIVE

Since it's conception, SEFI has had the distinct honor and pleasure of seeing more than two thousand of its student beneficiaries proudly walk up the stage to get their diplomas.

Among them are the shining examples Emiluisa Peñano, Theresa Pagaduan and Joan Samson. Emiluisa Peñano topped her high school batch and went on to become a scholar of Ateneo where she majored in Legal Management and graduated cum laude. She then studied law in the University of the Philippines and is now a successful lawyer at a firm that assist agrarian reform communities and cooperatives.

After graduating from STC, Theresa became a scholar at Adamson Univiersity where she received her degree in Psychology, cum laude. While she is now a guidance counselor, Joan chose to become a grade school teacher after taking up Education at the Philippine Normal University. They are both back at STC, proudly giving back everything they've learned from the school that they've come to love.

They are but a few of the many amazing women that SEFI has helped mold over the years. They are the living proof that STC made the right choice in establishing such a foundation. Through this program, countless eyes have been opened, and countless eyes have been opened, and countless hearts have been set free.
