Pru Life UK empowers more Muslim communities in Mindanao with its Adopt-a-Madrasah Program
Pru Life UK expands its Adopt-a-Madrasah
program, empowering more Muslim communities in Mindanao, as part of its Takaful
journey. The Adopt-a-Madrasah learning
modules will be rolled out in Davao, Cagayan de Oro, and Zamboanga.
In October 2024, Pru Life UK piloted its
Adopt-a-Madrasah (Islamic school) program for three madaris in Davao City
benefiting over 450 students and teachers with school materials.
This year, the program aims to support 1,500 students and teachers in nine Islamic schools.
With international NGO ASSIST as its program implementing partner, the Adopt-a-Madrasah program aims to enhance capacity-building, financial literacy, climate and health awareness to foster resilient communities. The learning modules will include:
- Islamic
finance and Takaful education – Introducing the
teachers and students to Shari’ah-compliant financial services and solutions
for financial inclusion.
- Digital
upskilling – Equipping the madaris’ teachers with
essential technology learning skills, including basic digital literacy and
financial technology (fintech) applications, to supplement and enhance their
teaching practices.
- Climate and health – Educating the teachers and the students about the health and financial impacts of climate change to promote climate adaptation and resilience.
“Thank you to our partners, community leaders, guests from the national and local government, the teachers of the three madaris for sharing our mission of financial inclusion, building resilience, and equipping communities with the skills to succeed in a digital and climate-changing world," he added.
