âWe are grateful for the opportunity given to us by the Department of Education to service the financial needs of our modern-day heroes, our Department of Education teachers. This program is part of our efforts to give back to the community. We know our teachers are financially literate, but we also know that everyone needs a refresher course to update their personal financial strategies and techniques,â said Mr. Jumawan. âWhile we stand ready to provide for their financing needs, we also want to build each teacherâs capacity to grow their savings and achieve their financial goals independently.â
