Globe Coop Project Carevan recently brought its Back-to-School Program to Kapt. H Francisco School in Taguig, supporting 100 students with essential learning tools, technology upgrades, and digital safety education.
This initiative is part of the Globe CoopCAREavan, an employee-driven outreach program where Globe’s regional teams roll out localized initiatives across the country to support vulnerable groups, including special children, teen mothers, fisherfolk, out-of-school youth, students, and indigenous communities like the Mangyan and the Aeta communities.
Each student received a school bag filled with supplies and a lunch bag, helping them start the school year prepared and energized. Beyond physical resources, Globe Coop upgraded the school’s computer lab, providing students with enhanced access to online learning materials, enabling a more digitally inclusive environment, and supporting blended learning initiatives that combine traditional and online education.
A key component of the program was the Digital Thumbprint Program (DTP) workshops, designed to raise awareness about cyberbullying, responsible online behavior, and digital safety. Through interactive sessions, students learned practical strategies to protect themselves online and to communicate respectfully in digital spaces.
“Education today goes beyond books and classrooms. By equipping students with both the tools and the knowledge to use them responsibly, we help them thrive academically and digitally,” said Business Head, Bam de Guzman “This program is a reflection of Globe’s commitment to holistic student development, ensuring that learners have the support they need to succeed in the real and digital worlds.”
Principal Joventino P. Bajar added, “Globe Coop’s support has truly made a difference for our students. The school supplies, upgraded computer lab, and digital safety workshops give them the confidence and resources they need to excel not only in their studies but also in navigating today’s digital environment safely.”
Globe Coop’s Back-to-School Program at Kapt. H Francisco School underscores the importance of combining tangible school resources with digital literacy and cyber safety education. By providing a holistic approach to learning, Globe Coop is fostering a generation of students who are academically equipped, digitally aware, and empowered to thrive in an increasingly interconnected world.
