Henry Sy, Sr., the founder of SM, understood the transformative power of education in breaking the cycle of poverty. That’s why he established the SM College Scholarships, aimed at helping low-income but deserving high school students attain a college education and secure a brighter future for themselves and their families. The scholarship program provides financial assistance for college and technical-vocational studies and supports access to primary education by constructing school buildings.
The SM Foundation’s vision is to create the Philippines where everyone has the opportunity for self-improvement. Its mission is to make targeted social investments in education, health care, livelihood, and shelter to assist under-served Filipinos in improving their lives. We will promote initiatives to protect and enhance the Philippines’ unique and diverse ecological heritage.

I would like to apply on your scholarship offer. I wanted to pursue my dream, and the first step in reaching it is by getting the course I want. Unfortunately the course cost much, my family cannot support my dream course financialy. So I am here asking for a scholarship, by your scholarship offer it can support me, not just in my studies but also in daily life needs of a student. I will not promise because promising is a big word but I will asure you that your scholarship ( if ever it is given to me) will not be put in vain. Thank you and God bless.
