The event also marked the launch of “I am Rare Scholarship Fund” initiated by benefactor DLS- CSB alumnus Juan Dickoy Magdaraog who has a rare disease called Pompe. The “I am Rare Scholarship Fund,” which will be lodged to PSOD, endeavors to equip patients for future opportunities to improve their quality of life. PSOD will assess qualified scholars to be sent to college through the School for Professional and Continuing Education (SPaCE) that offers art diploma programs in Basic and Advanced Painting and Multimedia Arts like Digital Photography, Web Design and Video Editing among others. The Center for Inclusive Education (CIE) on the other hand will assist the PSOD scholars on social coaching to help students to easily adapt to Benildean education and environment.
