Uratex Donates Scholarship

The family of the late Robert G. Cheng, owner of Uratex donated a student scholarship to the UP College of Engineering. The donation rites were done at the Office of the Dean on June 17. Witnessed by some College officials, it was graced by Mrs. Cheng, and daughter Peachy Medina, the wife and daughter respectively of Mr. Cheng. In their message, both daughter and mother said that their donation is one way of giving back the blessings that their family has received. Great believers in the value of education, they hope that their scholarship will be able to transform a student's life.

In her response, Dean Guevara shared the vision of the College in raising 1500 scholarships for financially challenged Engineering students. She expressed her gratitude to the family's generosity, making the donation the first of the 1500 that the College has to raise.
