WE Scholar Graduates from University, Finds Employment

Posted By abee on 05.12.2010 • (0)

Archie Amago is a recent college graduate of the collaborative Student Sponsorship Program operated by WE International Philippines and Young Focus.  Archie's talent and dedicated work ethic have led to his academic success as a college graduate, and has also led to his recent hiring as an employee with Ms. Djuna Rocha and Scarlet Begonia Flowers.

This position is a wonderful fit for the combination of Archie’s creative talent and the training he received as part of his business administration degree. After an initial period of being mentored by Ms. Rocha, Archie will certainly be a great addition to the Scarlet Begonia team. Archie is an inspiration to us and to the other students in the student sponsorship program, a real example that education and hard work do in fact create opportunities for success!

Archie has always been one of the most active students/teenagers at the student center and was the March 2010 winner of  the "WE-Student of the Month Award", in the college student category. Archie's graduation from the City College of Manila with a degree in Business Administration has been a well-earned and much deserved accomplishment. Throughout his participation in the student sponsorship program, Archie has always demonstrated strong leadership skills, and a well developed ability to work with others.

Just weeks after his college graduation, Archie was a participant in the 10-day long WE-ExcelAsia training (a program which helped the participants significantly improve theirEnglish language ability). The skills Archie learned in the various WE sponsored workshops and seminars he attended throughout the program, have served Archie well, and he has frequently expressed his gratitude for all of the support WE has extended him.

Congratulations, Archie!!! WE are all extremely proud and excited for you and this new chapter of your life. WE would like to thank Djuna Rocha and Scarlet Begonia Flowers for believing in Archie, for recognizing his skills and ability, and for extending him this wonderful opportunity!

WE would also like to thank our partner in the Student Sponsorship Program, Young Focus, for the tireless effort of the entire Young Focus team in collaborating with us to make success stories like Archie a reality. WE wish both Archie and Scarlet Begonia Flowers continued success in the future!!!
