Enhancing Education and Tapping

into Filipinos IngenuityUnique opportunity in the Philippines to design anddevelop home grown content-driven system to

modernize labs in secondary schools and leaf frog

other developing nations. Tap the Filipinos creativeness and resourcefulnessto benefit KAPWAFilipino.We should not miss the opportunity.
