iQor donates over 400 Computers to 53 schools  in Angeles City, Pampanga

iQor Philippines, a managed services provider of customer engagement and technology-enabled business process outsourcing (BPO) solutions, recently donated 413 refurbished computers to the Department of Education, benefiting 53 schools in Angeles City, Pampanga, through a handover event entitled, Empowering Communities Through Education: iQor and RapidTech Sustainable Donation.

Access to computers is essential for students, providing them with the tools to enhance their learning experience, advance digital literacy, and prepare for opportunities in today’s technology-driven society. This initiative also guarantees that units are allocated to elementary, junior, and senior high schools, as identified by the regional office of the Department of Education, ensuring students at all educational levels have access to essential technology.

This donation aligns with iQor’s sustainability strategy, which aims to make a positive impact in the communities where it operates and on the environment. “We believe our business is only as strong as our community. This initiative is a way for us to give back to the Angeles community that has supported our growth in the city. We are grateful to be able to contribute to the development of students and at the same time do good for the environment by reducing our waste and carbon footprint,” said Rod Hoddinott, iQor Philippines Country Lead. “We will continue with our commitment to do our share in creating a sustainable future for the next generation.”

iQor’s project partner, Rapid Technologies, Inc. (Rapid Tech), an expert in providing enterprise-grade Microsoft-Certified Refurbished IT hardware solutions, handled the refurbishment of these computers to suit the learning needs of the beneficiary students, along with the installation of necessary software and provision of keyboard and mouse sets. This collaboration exemplifies how the private sector can contribute to improving educational resources in the Philippines.

The official handover of the computers was formalized through the signing of a Deed of Donation between iQor, represented by Philippines Country Lead Rod Hoddinott and Chief People Officer Fleurette Navarro and the City of Angeles, represented by Vice Mayor Vicky Vega-Cabigting. The local government unit collaborated with the  Department of Education in  distributing the computer units and peripherals.

iQor Chief People Officer Fleurette Navarro said, “iQor remains committed to making a meaningful difference in the lives of young learners. “By providing these computers, we aim to empower students with the essential tools they need to thrive in their educational journey. This donation is about more than just technology—it’s about unlocking opportunities and paving the way for the next generation to reach their full potential.”

Distinguished guests at the event included Atty. Raphaela Kercee Vendel Pineda Lazatin, Officer in Charge of the City Information Office – Angeles City; Rapid Tech executives led by General Manager Kristin Santos; and DepEd officials headed by Asst. Division Schools Superintendent Dr. Enrique Angeles Jr., CESO VI, and Senior Education Program Specialist Alberto M. Otchengco.

This computer donation drive underscores iQor’s commitment to social responsibility. By providing essential tools for education, the company is empowering individuals and strengthening the local community.
