  1. SSC Night Secondary School (NSS)-Young girls from the impoverished area of barangay 745 & 746 around SSC campus are sent to the St. Scholastica's Night Secondary School for high school. In addition, they learn dress-making, doll-making,basic computer,typing, book-keeping and accounting.Starting with only two young girls in 1984, the scholarship program has graduated more than 200 students of SSAFI. The valedictorians for the past years were from SSAFI's roster of scholars and given full College scholarships by the school. ( http://www.ssc.edu.ph/sscweb_content/admissions_acadscholar.htm)

  2. Don Bosco Technical Scholarships from the Singalong poor community of Barangays 745 & 746-Deserving young men are sent to Don Bosco to train as auto mechanics, electricians, machine-ship or aircon mechanics. The graduates either have steady well-paying jobs or have established their own business repairing cars or appliances.

  3. Child of a Scholastican Scholarship-The scholarship program is a concept intended to provide tuition funds for daughters of Scholastican alumnae who have suffered financial set-backs. Because of these set-backs, these daughters might have to interrupt their studies in SSC Manila. In order to avert these unfortunate situation, SSAFI will provide funds for the continuation of their studies, subject to certain guidelines. SSAFI is appealing to all alumnae to think about this project in their works of charity. Any amount is most welcome.

  7. Other donations as requested by the school (seminars of students,environmental like tree planting,shows, events, athletic scholarships,etc)

  8. Donations to SSRDF (http://www.ssrdf.com.ph/). When the St. Scholastica Research and Develoopment Foundation was established, the St. Scholastica's Alumnae Association (former SSAFI) worked hard to raise funds for SSRDF.
