Marilyn Flores Castro, a former OFW who now owns a group of companies, and Philippine Institute of Certified Public Accountants - Dubai headed by Lyndon Magsino are currently supporting a total of 30 scholars
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – A group of accountants and a Filipina who runs a group of companies here have separately launched scholarship programs that have so far benefited a total of 30 students in the Philippines.
“I myself was a product of scholarship programs in high school and college in the Philippines, so it was my dream to also help students who wanted to finish their studies but didn’t have the financial means to do so,” Marilyn Flores Castro told Rappler in Filipino.
Castro, who started out in Dubai as an overseas Filipino worker (OFW), is now the owner of Pinas Group of Companies, which runs six diverse enterprises that grew from an original balikbayan box enterprise launched in 2014.
