now residing in Australia, particularly in Sydney, are sponsoring
a scholarship program for poor but deserving students in the
province.
"Boholano

of sponsoring two scholars to a four-year industrial course
at the Central Visayas State College of Agriculture, Forestry
and Technology (CVSCAFT).

The
project dubbed as "Kaabag sa Kaugmaon" will
pick the scholars from among prospective students to
be chosen by the selection board under Edita Chatto,
CVSCAFT chair on scholarship.
Project
chairpersons of the scholarship program are Romy Alampayon
and Dr. Violeta Patos, who recently came home from Australia
to seal the agreement between their association and
the school.
