PARTNERSHIP WITH DE LA SALLE UNIVERSITY TAFT

A series of Zoom meetings was conducted with students from De La Salle University (DLSU) under the GEPCOM program (Purposive Communication course), in partnership with COSCA (the university’s social action arm).

Through this partnership, MMP was selected as a featured community organization for the students’ advocacy campaign project. The collaboration focused on developing infographics and videos aimed at raising public awareness about MMP’s mission and impact.

MMP was chosen because of its long-standing role as a community partner aligned with various Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) such as No Poverty, Quality Education, and more.
Most recently, on July 16, a group of DLSU students visited the MMP office to begin their fieldwork. They conducted interviews with the Executive Director and produced video materials to highlight MMP’s programs and advocacies.

Furthermore, another meaningful Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) was signed between Mission Ministries Philippines (MMP) and the Nordic Harvest Mission Foundation – Philippines Branch to establish a partnership in support of Bright Morning Star Child Development Center through its new initiative, the School Readiness Program.

This program is designed to equip young children with foundational skills essential for a smooth transition into formal schooling. The MOA signing took place on May 14, 2025, marking the start of a shared commitment to prepare children for lifelong learning.

We warmly welcome Nordic Harvest Mission Foundation as a valued partner in our mission to transform lives through early childhood education.

New Partners: First Quarter 2025

We are delighted to welcome our new partner schools this year: Alay Pagibig Child Development Center, President Qurino Wesleyan School, Charis Duron Life Project and Christian Academy and Immanuel Christian Learning Center. To formalize these partnerships, a series of MOA signings were conducted via Zoom, marking the beginning of a shared commitment to quality early childhood education. To support their onboarding, a series of activities were conducted to introduce and reinforce our Developmentally Appropriate Early Childhood Program.

One notable event took place on June 28, when two MMP staff members traveled from Manila to Baguio City to conduct a seminar, coaching, and orientation session at Charis Duron Life Project and Christian Academy. The seminar was attended by the teachers, with the highlight being a hands-on personal coaching session and classroom redesign to model a truly developmentally appropriate early childhood learning environment.

Furthermore, an online coaching session was conducted on July 4, 2025, with President Quirino Wesleyan School and Immanuel Christian Learning Center. This was followed by an on-site visitation on July 14, 2025, led by one of our Supervisors, Ms. Claire Santillan. The visit provided a valuable opportunity to personally connect with the school community. Preliminary coaching and support were extended to their teachers and staff during this time.

A follow-up visit is scheduled to take place on February 2026.

Grounded in Theory, Driven by Practice

On July 10–11, 2025, a total of 52 teachers and school leaders participated in a face-to-face practical training held at Roots and Wings Learning Center at Marikina City, one of our partner schools.
This annual event ensures that the learnings from the ECE Level 1 and 2 Crash Course are effectively applied in actual classroom settings.


The seminar was facilitated by Teacher Chona, together with MMP Supervisors Teacher Sundie Victoria from Jubilant Youngsters Academy in Balagtas, Bulacan, Teacher Maricel Miñon from Batasan Foursquare Tutorial Center, Teacher Del, one of our MMP officers and Teacher Christine Fa’ar Nobleza who discussed one of the most engaging and timely topics “Handling Special Children in a Regular Classroom.”


A major highlight of the two-day training was the live demonstration session, where the MMP Supervisors role-played as preschool teachers, while the participants acted as their students.
What a joy it was to witness our MMP teachers engaging in hands-on learning again through a face-to-face platform!
