These scholarships are more than financial assistance. They are investments in dreams, opportunities, and the future—giving deserving students the chance to pursue quality education, develop their potential, and eventually make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Notre Dame of Dadiangas University for providing quality education and creating opportunities for students to grow, serve, and lead with heart.

We likewise offer our deepest appreciation to our generous benefactors, Alvin and Prima Hower and Pilar Palacios Pe, whose generosity and commitment to education are helping make these dreams possible.

To Czesna and Irish: your Notre Dame family believes in you. May you embrace this opportunity with determination, gratitude, and excellence. May your journey inspire others to dream boldly, persevere, and, someday, pay forward the gift of education.

We are proud of you, dear scholars! 💚🎓

May your journey be a beautiful testament to what happens when education, generosity, and a community that believes in its young people come together.

Communion. Transformation. Action.
