OUR VOLUNTEERS: 

THE PILLARS OF OUR WORK

SUPPORT US

The Ugnayan ng Pahinungód, the volunteer service program of UP, deploys UP alumni as volunteer teachers called Gurong Pahinungód to underserved communities for one school year. 


This year, through a Memorandum of Agreement between UP and the Ministry of Basic, Higher and Technical Education of the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao (BARMM), we have deployed volunteer teachers to areas in BARMM.  


We need your support to be able to send more volunteers to these areas and reach learners who need help. 


Through your contributions, our volunteer teachers will be provided with their daily allowance and other needs to fulfill their mission of helping provide quality education to the Filipino youth.
