Before the school year 2020-2021, the Jaime V. Ongpin (JVO) Foundation organized an initiative to provide assistance for the JVO scholars in Ateneo de Iloilo-Santa Maria Catholic School (AdI-SMCS) as a response to the new form of learning brought by the pandemic.

The said initiative was launched by the Ateneo de Manila University’s Office of the University Development and was benefacted by Mr. Roberto V. Ongpin and Ms. Michelle Ongpin Callaghan.

Mr. Jover is an alumnus of Ateneo de Iloilo (Batch 2020), currently studying architecture in the University of San Agustin. In terms of artistic specialization, he is particularly inclined to watercolors, oils, and digital graphic designs.

Ms. Cabag is a Grade 11-Loyola student of Ateneo Senior High. Inspired by the poems she read online, she started to write her own poetry when she was in Grade 8.
