Despite the harsh realities and effects, the pandemic has on the hospitality industry, Eurotel continues its commitment to education by providing more scholarship grants. Through the initiative of Mr. EdmundoG. Las, Director of Eurotel Hotel, they are sponsoring 10 students from Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila Scholars Foundation, Inc. (PLMSFI) for the year 2020-2021.
Education remains to be the top priority and companies should be responsible to contribute what they can to see to it the Philippine education becomes world-class. COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the numbers of insufficiencies and partiality in our education system. If there’s another lesson that the pandemic has brought us, it is the importance of education.
“As part of our Corporate Social Responsibility program, we at Eurotel Hotel are glad to helpout by granting these students the opportunity to learn and grow despite the pandemic. We believe that educationon is a vital part of growing not only as a person, but a responsible Filipino as well. I hope that they will not forget our simple gesture thus, learn to share with people whenever they can.” Mr. Ed Las shared.
Eurotel Hotel continues to take further its cause in extending help to the community, by helping PLMSFI scholars who are in need, despite the current pandemic situation.
“We are aware that in these trying times; education is not something to be overlooked. As we extend our assistance to these gifted individuals just as we hope for a better future. Like PLMSFI vision, we believe that no student must be deprived of a good college educaion.
Mr. Edmunto Las is inspired by the old Chinese proverb that puts true happiness in helping others and with this, Eurotel already has fifty (50) scholar beneficiaries. Their goal for the next five years is to double the number of scholars or more and that would become possible if they can get more sustainable donations.
“If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap. If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody, and true happiness is found in helping others.” - Chinese Proverb
“Even before the pandemic, there were major holes for many poor or low-income families in the country who struggle to pay tuition fees for schools and lack of resources to cover emergency expenses. In this time of the pandemic, all we need is care. We need more sensitivity. We need more people to care about one another; we should not let this pandemic, driven down the will and eagerness of the children and the youth to brighten up their education. Actions can really create hope,” the Director of Eurotel said.
