Tuesday, May 6, 2014
SMART Communications Inc. (Smart), through its Smart Prepaid brand, has launched the search for the top 10 university student organizations in Metro Manila to comprise the “League of Leaders,” an advocacy program that seeks to empower student groups with skills, knowledge and resources in order to reach their goals.
Under the program, Smart Prepaid offers 10 deserving organizations with funding support, skills-building activities and mentoring sessions to boost their group’s strategies, broaden their horizons and optimize their potentials as groups and individuals.
Over 30 student organizations have made the cut in the initial screening, which included a stringent evaluation on their track record in mounting student activities as well as engaging their fellow students to support their advocacies.
These include groups from Adamson University, Arellano University, Ateneo de Manila University, Colegio de San Juan de Letran, De La Salle University, Far Eastern University, Mapua Institute of Technology, National University, New Era University, Pamantasan Lungsod ng Maynila, San Beda College, University of the Philippines–Diliman and University of Sto. Tomas.
The list will be further whittled down through a campaign pitch challenge to be judged on the basis of the groups’ analysis, creativity and innovation and actual presentation.
