Alberto Muyot said that these newly-donated smartphones from OPPO will help hundreds of students to finish their studies amid the new normal, “We thank OPPO Philippines for being responsive to the needs of the most deprived and marginalized children who are at risk of being left out from the online/distance learning because their families could not afford to support their learning needs,” said Atty. Muyot.
Moreover, OPPO extended its partnership with Save The Children through a fundraising collaboration for Save the Children’s Project ARAL. The partnership aims to raise a total amount of PHP500,000 to help provide Basic Learning Kits to more than 500 Filipino students for their upcoming online classes.
