Corporate Guarantee insures 300 learners

Corporate Guarantee (CG), a non-life insurance company, took part in the Ready for School 2026 program of the Philippine Business for Social Progress (PBSP), in support of the Department of Education’s initiative to strengthen school readiness by ensuring public schools are better equipped to support both teachers and learners ahead of the new academic year.

“School readiness goes beyond preparing classrooms, it is about ensuring that students are protected and supported so learning can continue with fewer disruptions and greater peace of mind for families. Through our continued partnership with the Philippine Business for Social Progress, we aim to contribute in a more meaningful way by helping create learning environments that are not only prepared, but also safer and more resilient for every child,” Ched Limson, chief operating officer of CG, said during the company’s presentation of the Certificate of Insurance Coverage to Highway Hills Integrated School (HHIS) in Mandaluyong on 30 May.

Instead of providing a traditional cash donation, CG leveraged its expertise as an insurer to provide a customized personal accident insurance package for 300 selected learners from Grades 1 to 3 at HHIS.

Under the coverage, each student received accidental death and dismemberment benefits of P50,000, medical reimbursement of P2,000, animal bite coverage of P2,000, and burial assistance of P2,000, with an annual premium of P100 per student, inclusive of taxes.

The initiative demonstrates how insurance can serve as a practical tool for community support, extending protection to students and providing added peace of mind to their families.

Now in its third consecutive year of participation in Brigada Eskwela, CG’s involvement in PBSP’s flagship back-to-school initiative reflects its sustained commitment to supporting public school communities, following earlier engagements at Placido del Mundo Elementary School in 2024 and Balara Elementary School in 2025.

Fifteen CG employees also volunteered for the 2026 Brigada Eskwela at HHIS. Classroom repairs and donation of learning materials provided CG employees with an opportunity to contribute to a shared cause while strengthening camaraderie and reinforcing the company’s culture of service.

“By combining education support with protection initiatives, we hope to contribute not only to learning continuity but also to the overall well-being and security of students and their families. We are honored to continue supporting PBSP’s Ready for School program and look forward to creating a lasting impact in more communities in the years ahead,” Limson said.
