The BSP Financial Group Limited (BSP) has added its financial support to become a gold sponsor for the Cry of the Poor (ANCOP) PNG Learning Centre, who will lead the ANCOP global walk on Sunday 15th October.
The Cry of the Poor (ANCOP) PNG Learning Centre – located at Gerehu Stage 7 in Port Moresby – runs learning and nourishment programs for under privileged children below the age of 8 years, with no formal early education.
“Through our pre-school program, we aim to provide children with a strong foundation upon which to build their future academic and personal success,” Cecille Chuacuco, ANCOP POM Fundraising Chairperson said.
“Our program includes a comprehensive curriculum, tailored to the needs of young children, that focuses on developing key skills such as literacy, numeracy, and socialization. In addition, we also provide daily nutritious meals to our students, ensuring that they are receiving the sustenance necessary to support their physical and cognitive growth.
“This will be our first time engaging with corporate companies in PNG, and we are very grateful that BSP is supporting our foundation’s effort,” she added.
Community and people are among BSP’s core values and take pride in helping underprivileged children not only in Gerehu, but from other suburbs in NCD.
“We are more than just a bank,” said Amelia Minnopu, BSP Corporate Sponsorship Manager.
“As a responsible corporate organization we give back in sponsorships, donations, and charity work. In 2022, we invested over K2.4 million in sponsorships, more than K800 thousand in donations and K1.6 million in community projects here in PNG.
“It is our belief that when our communities prosper, our ecosystem thrives, and our customers, stakeholders, shareholders, and businesses remain successful. Our donations reach organizations, charities, community groups and other worthy causes that contribute meaningfully to improving lives. It is our hope that we are able to enrich and empower for the better.
