The LAMTIB Initiative, in collaboration with the leadership of Circle of Friends, continues its active support of educational programs for underprivileged families by providing much-needed scholarships to deserving students. For the past 40 years, the scholarship program has been successfully organized through PESCOF (Philippine Educational Sponsorship of Circle of Friends), under the dedicated leadership of our mutual friend, Michael Gimarino. Looking ahead to School Year 2025– 2026, the LAMTIB Initiative will take on a central role in advancing our shared mission of uplifting underprivileged communities across the Philippines through education and empowerment.
