A heart for Centralian scholars—The Filipino-Australian Foundation of Queensland, Inc. (FAFQI), Ilonggo Association of Victoria, Inc. (IAVIA) held a Scholarship Awarding Ceremony at the Educational Media Center Conference Room on January 26, 2018.

With the spirit of generosity and Christian excellence, the event recognized the individual donors. A Certificate of Recognition to FAFQI and IAVIA donors was awarded by CPU President, Dr. Teodoro C. Robles assisted by Director for Student Development and Programs, Dr. Margen A. Java and Vice President for Student Affairs, Rev. Joniel Howard H. Gico.

Ms. Maria Rimando, Head of the 2018 FAFQI Delegation encouraged the scholars to pursue their dreams.

In her message, Ms. Maria Rimando, Head of the 2018 FAFQI Delegation encouraged the scholars in achieving their dreams, “If you want to be successful in life, study hard, try your very best. That’s why people like us are supporting you, because we want you to have a successful life one day and hopefully, just like Mr. Mauro and the other donors, you will do the same.”

Mr. Melvin Espiga, head of the 2018 IAVIA Delegation and a Centralian, inspired the scholars to dream big and pursue excellence wherever their career takes them, “Fourty-nine years ago, I was like you guys—I was working as a student assistant at the university library from 1969-1973. During my time, there were no computers so we manually labelled the books and took care of the books. I was awarded as one of the top 10 outstanding library student assistants and it was my training in CPU that made me have a winning character in my career later on. Because of my training here, I learned about persistence, resilience, team work and hard work.”

Both speakers enlightened the scholars that success is a long process that pays in bulk at the end.
