Bosch Automotive Aftermarket launches new “Care for Life” program

Bosch Automotive Aftermarket (AA) together with Teach For the Philippines (TFP) have joined together to support the development of educational skills necessary for children in the Philippines basic literacy, numeracy, and socio-emotional skills with their #CareforEducation campaign which is part of the bigger Care For Life campaign that also launched in the country.

The #CareforEducation campaign aims to address the challenges of providing education at a system level to children within poverty communities.

The Philippines is also the third country to have this campaign launched under the ASEAN-wide Care For Life campaign. It follows countries such as Singapore and Indonesia with plans for a similar campaign to launch in Malaysia, Vietnam, and Thailand in the near future that focuses on road safety, the health of children, and clean air respectively.

We believe that children are the next generation of leaders. Bosch AA supports this by providing quality education through this campaign. The partnership with Teach For The Philippines is divided into two programs – Functional Literacy Program (FLP) and Batang Bayani Program (BBP) – dedicated for 700 students and 500 parents of the students.

He continues by stating that “We believe that learning never stops and we look forward to working alongside Teach For The Philippines to equip children with the right knowledge and positive behavior towards learning and development.”

As a bit of a backgrounder, the Functional Literacy Program provides an early-grade intervention program for reading and math, subject areas that are critical for

academic success in the Philippines. Whereas, the Batang Bayani Program aims to help children practice positive behavior toward learning at home.

The #CareForEducation campaign is part of Bosch’s Care For Life initiative, contributing to the vulnerable children’s communities in ASEAN. It is supported by Bosch Primavera, a charitable organization founded by Bosch associates, helping children from all over the world since 1990.
