    TYKFI Shares Blessings in Season of Love

    3/4/2020

    Anywhere in the world, Christmas is made more meaningful when shared with those in need.  It is not just a season for a simple rejoicing with one’s own circle of friends but about the birth of our Lord and the sharing of this joy and love to those in need.
        For the 614 schoolchildren and teachers in Ilocos Sur, the annual gift giving was held on December 10 and 11, 2019 at the three adopted schools namely Babayoan Elementary School, Nagtenga Elementary School, and Sidaoen Elementary School.

        During the celebration, selected pupils showcased their talents for an entertaining set of performances. They also participated in parlor games like Bring Me, Marshmallow Relay, Newspaper Dance, and Caroling Contest.
        They also received awards and consolation prizes for taking part in the Christmas art making contest.  The theme was entitled, “Kulturang Pinoy sa Kapaskuhan” with the use of mixed media and recycled materials.  The students created scenes of simbang gabi, the nativity scene, of gifts around a Christmas tree, and of families gathered around a fiesta-type meal celebration.  Some of the materials used were corn seeds, Monggo seeds, kidney beans, sea shells, rolled Manila paper, scratch paper, cut-up sacks, broom sticks, used bottles, soft drink bottle caps, and empty vitamin cases. This year, the first prize went to Sidaoen Elementary School while the second and third prizes went to Nagtenga Elementary School. The rest received consolation prizes.
        In Babayoan Elementary School, Brgy. Captain Virgilio Lupdag, PTA President Mrs. Jeny Grace Garnace, Head Teacher Violeta Javonillo, Master Teacher Marilyn Pere, and other barangay officials, parents, and school staff assisted the TYKFI team of Leonora A. Dominguez and Lara A. Abaleta in distributing food packs to 174 pupils. Selected pupils from grades 5 and 6 also presented a ballroom dance number.
        Meanwhile, 214 daycare to grade 6 pupils received their food packs from TYKFI’s Elizabeth T. Alba and Valerie L. Tan, with helping hands from Brgy. Captain Noli V. Afalla, PTA President Gerald Javinar, Head Teacher Carlos Javines, other barangay officials, parents, and teachers. They too expressed their endless thanks as they could see that all the students were really happy with the blessings they received.
        The 192 students of Sidaoen Elementary School were full of energy as soon as the Foundation’s team composed of Evelyn Abao and Dareene Malinao arrived at the venue. After the games, selected students presented an entertaining performance. Brgy. Captain Emigdio Sales, Jr., PTA President Joel Cortez, Head Teacher Frisco Josue, other barangay officials, parents, and school teachers were also on hand to help put each gift item in the bag and help the little ones carry their Christmas gift packs.
        Each gift pack came with two flavors of Bifrutas juice drink, two flavors of Vitamilk Soy milk, Nestea iced tea, cheese, sandwich spread, chocolate chip cookies, powdered milk, evaporated milk, cooking oil, spaghetti sauce and pasta, sugar, coffee, and candy.
        Being nurturing to these children’s education means a holistic approach for the Foundation. Thus, it is hoped that as each family has the chance to share the warmth of the season in their respective homes, that familial ties, mutual encouragement, and cooperation will be spurred along as well.

      UE-TYKFI Scholarship Program

      The Tan Yan Kee Foundation, Inc. and the University of the East established the UE-TYKFI scholarship program in 1998 to provide free quality education to deserving UE undergraduate students and faculty members. Close to 1,000 students, including 12 faculty members and 60 grantees, have benefited from the program. 

      For the past 13 school years, TYKFI has spent no less than PhP68.1 million for the program, covering book allowance, uniform subsidy, transportation allowance and monthly stipend. On the other hand, UE has spent PhP98.7 million for tuition and other school fees. The scholarship is renewable every semester provided that the scholar meets the grade requirement and finishes his/her course within the prescribed period. 

      The scholarship program for regular faculty members covers a book allowance and monthly stipends (including study leave pay, tuition and other school fees) for two consecutive years for a master’s degree or four years for a doctorate degree. Both degrees may be pursued at the UE Graduate School, or in another university if the field of specialization is not offered in UE. 

      The undergraduate scholarships are in selected fields considered relevant to the needs of the Philippines for high-level manpower, namely Engineering and Computer Science/Information Technology, Mathematics and the Sciences, Accountancy and Dentistry, English and Communication Arts. 

      To qualify for a student scholarship, applicants must meet a set of criteria. For further details, please call 735- 5471 local 398, 399 or 735-8577 (UE Manila), 367-4787 or 367-4572 (UE Caloocan) or 816-5520 and -22 (TYKFI).
