Kaagapay sa Pag-aaral Program
The COVID-19 crisis has placed more than 5,600 UP students in danger of not being able to continue their education because they cannot afford the technology and tools that have now become integral to learning.
The University of the Philippines invites you to be their "kaagapay" - someone who shares their burden and eases their struggles - in these difficult and rapidly evolving times. With your support, the Iskolar ng Bayan will receive desktop computers or laptops and Internet connectivity, allowing them to move forward and ultimately reach their goal of graduating.
Please visit publicservice.up.edu.ph/kaagapay for more information. For assistance, you may get in touch with the Kaagapay Secretariat at 0945 235 5197 or kaagapay@up.edu.ph
