 St. Bernadette College of Alabang (SBCA), a premier higher educational institution located in the heart of Alabang, Muntinlupa City, proudly announces the official launch of its latest academic scholarship initiative: the Alice Galang Eduardo Scholarship Grant (AGES-G).

The AGES-G is a prestigious merit-based scholarship program designed to support outstanding and deserving students who aspire to pursue quality higher education at SBCA. Spearheaded by the Office of the Vice President for Public Relations and External Corporate Affairs, led by Vice President Ma. Flordeliza R. De Guzman, this new grant reinforces SBCA’s unwavering mission to make transformative education accessible to all.

As the second institutional scholarship offered by SBCA—following the esteemed Gertrudes Vivo-Carlos Scholarship Grant—the AGES-G represents a vital step forward in expanding educational opportunities for Filipino students in Alabang, Muntinlupa, and beyond.

Scholars will be selected through a competitive academic examination administered by the SBCA Scholarship Committee, chaired by College Dean Dr. Danilo H. Cabalu. Candidates will be assessed based on academic performance, character, and potential to embody the core values of SBCA: excellence, service, and leadership.

The Alice Galang Eduardo Scholarship Grant is part of SBCA’s long-term commitment to fostering student success, promoting academic equity, and producing graduates who will contribute meaningfully to national development.

With this initiative, SBCA continues to stand as a beacon of educational excellence in the South, shaping future leaders and advancing the legacy of academic empowerment.

 St. Bernadette College of Alabang proudly recalls the conferral of the prestigious Gawad Gertrudes Vivo-Carlos Award to Madam Alice Galang Eduardo, in recognition of her outstanding contributions to the field of Humanitarian Work. The award was bestowed during a momentous Commencement Exercise of the College Department, where Madam Eduardo was also honored as the distinguished Commencement Speaker.

A revered philanthropist and a woman of unwavering faith, Madam Alice Eduardo has long exemplified the virtues of compassion, humility, and social responsibility. Among her notable humanitarian efforts is the rehabilitation of the pediatric and isolation wards at the Philippine General Hospital, a project that has touched countless lives and uplifted public health infrastructure in the country.

Her legacy also extends to spiritual and community development, marked by her support in the construction of the Parish of San Agustin in Jaen, Nueva Ecija—an enduring testament to her deep faith in God and commitment to nation-building.

Above all, Madam Eduardo embodies humility in spirit, a virtue that resonates with the core values and credo of St. Bernadette College of Alabang. Her life’s work continues to inspire generations to serve others with sincerity, dignity, and grace.

Through this recognition, SBCA not only honors a remarkable humanitarian but reaffirms its mission to celebrate individuals who transform communities through acts of kindness, leadership, and unshakable faith.
