The Philippine office of Japanese tech behemoth Epson has formalized the company?s commitment to equip less-privileged, deserving public schools with Epson technologies under the Gift of Brightness project.
The partnership between the Department of Education (DepEd) and Epson Philippines on the company?s ?Gift of Brightness? program for youth and education was formalized during the Memorandum of Agreement ceremonial signing for DepEd partners held recently at the L.B. Soriano Hall, Seameo Innotech in Quezon City.
The Gift of Brightness program aims to equip deserving, less privileged schools in the country with Epson technologies to help the students in their studies and school projects through the donation of complete technology packages for each recipient that consist of Epson printers, projectors, scanners, label printers, document cameras and a year?s supply of inks and cartridges.
?Since we started the program, there have been 45 beneficiary-schools, 27 of which were coursed through the Department of Education for the selection process under our partnership for the past two years,? said Donna V. Ferro, head of marketing communications and PR at Epson Philippines.
?We believe that by offering detailed innovation, which is at the heart of all Epson products, we can contribute to uplifting the learning experience for the students. We hope that through the Epson Gift of Brightness, we can help bring brightness and inspiration,? Ferro said.
