WHY a PWUAA Foundation

 

One of the aims of the Foundation is to promote, encourage, conduct and carry on the advancement and development of education.  The framework of the foundation was initiated in 1985 by then Alumnae Association President Soledad Sanvictores-Estrella and the Alumnae Relations Officer, the late Lourdes Eleazegui-Guillermo.

The idea for such an association emerged from the general perception that there was a need for a full time body to oversee long-range alumnae projects, particularly in relation to donations.  Accordingly, the Foundation assists in the implementation of the PWU's development program through grants, bequests, scholarships and donations.  Potential candidates must have a burden to uplift the academic standards of the university and be willing to contribute towards that goal by serving as active resource persons.

The 2002-2003 grantees were Purita Uson, PWU librarian; and Marilyn Lauron, office assistant, PWU Alumni Office.  The foundation works in partnership with the PWU Alumni Association and the University in carrying out its programs.

The new board of the PWU Alumni Foundation met at the residence of Jazmin Aspillera-Jocson on October 8, 2003 to discuss its project focus for the next year.  Two new officers were elected - Corazon Fausto-Gatchalian and Jazmin Aspillera-Jocson.  The new board is composed of the following PWU Alumni:
