SM Foundation Scholars Empowered for Success: SM Retail Vice Chairperson Harley Sy Inspires at SM City Sto. Tomas Event

SM Retail vice chairperson Harley Sy recently delivered an inspiring address to SM scholars and alumni at SM City Sto. Tomas in Batangas. The event, organized by SM Foundation Inc., highlighted the impact of their scholarship program on the lives of students and their families.

One mother, M Rose Dapitan Villaruel-Leonora, took to Facebook to express her gratitude for the opportunity given to her daughter, Frances Dhayanah Leonora, to become an SM scholar. She shared how the scholarship has been a huge help in sending her daughter to university for free, easing the financial burden on their family.

The SM Foundation scholarship program not only provides financial assistance for education but also offers inspiration, motivation, and career opportunities for its scholars. Through general assemblies like the one held at SM City Sto. Tomas, scholars are informed about internship opportunities, exclusive job offers within the SM Group, and valuable exposure to the professional world.

These gatherings also serve as a platform for scholars to connect with peers and mentors, creating valuable networks and gaining insights from successful SM scholar-alumni. By focusing on practical experience and holistic development, the foundation equips scholars with the tools they need to succeed in their future careers.

The SM Foundation Scholarship Program aims to empower deserving Filipino youth from vulnerable communities by supporting their educational aspirations. By prioritizing a well-rounded student experience, the foundation is nurturing the next generation of Filipino leaders who are prepared to make a positive impact on society.
