    Creating Social Value Through Access to Digital Education for Marginalized Schools – Pro Futuro Program Pilot Sites in the Philippines

    “The ProFuturo Program is a partnership between Ayala Foundation, Inc. (AFI) and Fundacion ProFuturo through a Master Collaboration Agreement signed in 2017 with the Department of Education (DEPED) Mindoro, Marinduque, Romblon, Palawan (MIMAROPA) Regional Office. The project aims to provide digital mobile classroom support to elementary school teachers and students with the goal of helping ensure quality elementary education. The digital mobile classroom is composed of three major components such as provision of devices and Internet connectivity, education platform and learning contents, and training and mentoring for teachers. Devices include tablets for students, laptops with software and router for teachers and mini projector for the class. Learning contents covers linguistics, mathematics, sciences, technology, values, and life skills.

    The pilot implementation of ProFuturo was in two Ayala Foundation community development sites in El Nido, Palawan and Puerto Galera, Occidental Mindoro, both located in the MIMAROPA Region. AFI measured the Social Return on Investment (SROI) of this Pilot implementation covering 2018 – 2020. SROI is a framework for measuring social value. It aims to reduce inequality, environmental degradation, and improve well–being by accounting social, environmental, and economic costs and benefits (The SROI Guide, 2012).

    The objective of the analysis is to investigate the benefits of ProFuturo to stakeholders and use the result to improve implementation of the program.”

    Impact Tulsa 2016 Community Impact Report

    “Ensuring our kids develop the academic skills and intellectual curiosity they need to be successful adults is not solely the obligation
    of schools. It is the biggest and most important responsibility of the entire community. Students and educators need support from
    families, businesses, organizations, civic entities, and faith groups. Learning is a continuous process that spans a pipeline from early
    childhood to postsecondary education. Working together to nurture success at every milestone gives our kids the skills they need
    for the future and provides our community the foundation it needs to thrive.

    Three years ago, the concept that “it takes a village” to educate our youth was the driving force behind ImpactTulsa, and it still is
    today. Utilizing data to identify what works in the complex web of learning resources and employing collective impact to help align
    partners on shared outcomes is at the heart of what we do. Along the way, we have discovered an incredible spirit of collaboration
    among partners and a genuine desire to create an education system that embraces diversity, equity, innovation, and continuous
    improvement.”
