Don Bosco Youth Center Tondo – TVET, has received a significant boost in its mission to empower aspiring auto-mechanic students, thanks to the generous support from Aisin Philippines and Riken Motor Sales through the AISIN ELEVATE PROGRAM. The sponsorship aims to address various challenges faced by students and enhance the quality of education provided at the renowned technical institution.
Student Support: In recognition of the financial hardships endured by junior students, Aisin Philippines and Riken Motor Sales have announced a monthly allowance subsidy program. This initiative aims to alleviate financial burdens, ensuring that students can focus wholeheartedly on their studies without the hindrance of financial constraints. A monthly allowance will be provided to selected junior students over the course of their Junior term, covering expenses related to transportation, study materials, and meals. By mitigating financial challenges, the program seeks to prevent students from dropping out of classes and struggling to attend regularly, thereby enhancing their overall learning experience and academic performance.
Educational Support through Aisin Auto Parts: Recognizing the paramount importance of practical learning in the automotive industry, Aisin Philippines and Riken Motor Sales are committed to enhancing teaching and demonstration processes at Don Bosco Youth Center Tondo – TVET. As part of this commitment, Aisin auto parts will be provided to the faculty, staff, and students for educational purposes. These high-quality automotive components will serve as invaluable tools for hands-on learning experiences, enabling students to gain practical skills and knowledge essential for their future careers.
Moreover, Aisin Philippines and Riken Motor Sales will organize Expertise Workshops in both face-to-face and hybrid formats. These workshops will offer valuable insights into the automotive industry, supplementing traditional classroom learning with practical knowledge and industry expertise.
