TENEO's campaign for
500 new scholarships under the Sesquicentennial banner provides an enduring and meaningful dimension to the celebration of the school's 150 years of service to the nation.

The Sesquicentennial’s three themes of celebrating excellence, deepening spirituality and building the nation have their basis in Ateneo’s mission to form leaders —“men and women for others"— who are the ultimate measure of her success.

Ateneo’s continuing and compelling endeavor through the years has been is to attract the best and the brightest from all over the country, regardless of their economic circumstances.

Presently, Loyola Schools provides scholarships to 1088 students out of a population of 7,963 for a 13.7% scholar-to-student ratio. It seeks to ramp up this ratio to an ambitious 20%, so that there would be 1600 scholars out of a population of about 8,000, or one of out five students, in the near future.

The campaign involves the collaborative efforts of all sectors and levels of the school, from the Board of Trustees to the basic operating units and offices. We have started to spread the word about the need to fund these scholarships, reaching out to alumni within and beyond the Philippines, in their places of work, in their regions of activity, among the year batches and programs and school organizations.

We ask you to share in helping Ateneo recruit the best and the brightest from among the students, secure as many as possible of the very best, and produce the kind of leaders the country needs—“men and women for others.”

Here are some of Ateneo's scholars through the 150 years of its service to the nation.

CAMPAIGN WITH US!
An Invitation from the President

My Dear Atenean:

On behalf of the University, I invite you to join us in bringing the Ateneo education to the best and the brightest in the country. As we campaign for 500 new college scholarships, we carry with us the commitment of continuing our tradition of excellence in teaching, spirituality and nation-building. The active support of friends and alumni like you will help us train leaders of the future. Every amount, small or great, is a big contribution to the cause. The amount I quoted in my presentations is P100/month or P1000/year. If pooled together, these seemingly small donations will support a hundred or more scholars at the Ateneo. Of course, if you can give more, that would allow us to support even more scholars and help us reach our target faster. We will truly be grateful for your generosity, your trust, and most importantly, your involvement in this worthy endeavor. We are confident that together we can make a difference. So, campaign with us and be a part of our dream for 150 years and beyond.

Bienvenido F. Nebres, SJ
