While the pandemic threatened to derail the futures of millions of learners, SM Group’s social good arm, the SM Foundation continued believing in education's capacity to uplift students from vulnerable communities, including Davao-based SM Scholar Cyra Jimenez. “To be an accountant has always been a dream of mine since I was still in my elementary years. It was driven by my passion for Mathematics because I enjoy solving problems and doing calculations.
This realization made it even clearer to Cyra that her parents had to work doubly hard to support her in achieving her goals. Their sacrifices served as her drive to seek out scholarships to alleviate the financial burden on her parents' shoulders."I was determined to get that scholarship and graduate, no matter what," she shared the mindset that kept her going.
With a few years left in college, Cyra looks back at her path, seeing it as one defined by personal growth. College taught her humbling lessons about independence, responsibility, and persevering past setbacks. “Receiving the SM scholarship has taught me a sense of gratitude and responsibility. Knowing that someone believed in my potential enough to invest in my education has motivated me to strive for excellence in all aspects of my life. I am grateful for the opportunities the scholarship has given me.
