BDO Foundation Inc., the corporate social responsibility arm of BDO Unibank Inc., announced having organized a financial literacy session for the benefit of 20 teachers from Naga, 20 teachers from Iriga, and 60 teachers and nonteaching personnel from Camarines Sur in commemoration of this year’s National Teachers’ Month.
“Designed to empower teachers in the early stages of their career, the session focused on essential financial management lessons like budgeting, saving, financial planning, debt management, and fraud and scam prevention,” read a statement issued by BDO Foundation this week.
“As teachers, we are responsible for setting a positive example to our students – we are their second parents after all,” Norma B. Samantela, Camarines Sur Schools Division Superintendent, was quoted in the statement as saying. “This training initiative enables us to be better role models as we make sound financial decisions and secure our futures and those of our families.”
According to BDO Foundation, it works closely with the Department of Education “to help improve the financial literacy levels of beneficiaries in the education sector.” The partners currently implement a financial education program for public schools across the country, it added.“The initiative in Naga is one of the many efforts of the organization to spearhead actions that aim to help improve the economic well-being of Filipinos in different sectors of society,” the organization added.
