(READ) Program at Pinagsanhan Elementary School in Maragondon, Cavite)<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Philippines continues to face a serious literacy challenge, with many children and young adults struggling to <strong>comprehend what they read despite being able to read and write<\/strong><strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the Philippine Statistics Authority\u2019s 2024 Functional Literacy, Education, and Mass Media Survey (FLEMMS), while about <strong>93.1% of Filipinos aged 10 to 64 have basic literacy skills<\/strong><strong>, <\/strong>only <strong>70.8% are considered functionally literate<\/strong>\u2014they can meaningfully understand and use written information\u2014leaving more than <strong>one in five Filipinos with difficulty in comprehension<\/strong><a href=\"#_ftn1\" id=\"_ftnref1\">[1]<\/a>. This learning crisis highlights the urgent need for targeted literacy interventions across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To help address this challenge, Pepsi-Cola Products Philippines, Inc. (PCPPI)<\/strong><strong>,<\/strong> the exclusive manufacturer of PepsiCo beverages in the country, has partnered with <strong>Gawad Kalinga<\/strong> to launch the <em>Reading for Excellence and Development (READ) Program<\/em> at Pinagsanhan Elementary School in Maragondon, Cavite, reaffirming its strong commitment to education and community development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Led by Gawad Kalinga, the READ Program is a community-based literacy initiative that supports children aged seven to 13 who face challenges in reading and comprehension. Through this partnership, the program delivers learning sessions and essential reading materials to help strengthen literacy skills among young learners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The program officially launched on January 16 and will run through March 2026, offering three-hour sessions per week. A total of 30 students from Pinagsanhan Elementary School are participating. In support of the launch, PCPPI mobilized employee volunteers who assisted in the initial sessions and activities. PCPPI also donated two printers to the school to help support its learning and administrative needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cReading and comprehension open doors to lifelong learning and opportunities,\u201d said Atty. Carina Lenore Bayon, Chief Environmental, Social, &amp; Governance Officer <em>of PCPPI<\/em>. \u201cThrough our partnership with Gawad Kalinga and the READ Program, PCPPI is proud to support a meaningful initiative that helps children build confidence, improve comprehension, and develop a love for learning.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, Gawad Kalinga brings its extensive experience in grassroots education and community engagement to ensure the effectiveness and sustainability of the READ Program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt is an honor for Gawad Kalinga to partner with PCPPI in ensuring that no child is left behind, especially those in the peripheries,\u201d said Daniel Bercasio, Gawad Kalinga Executive Director. \u201cLet us take courage and work together in providing hope to our people\u2014one child at a time, one community at a time. <em>Walang iwanan<\/em>!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The READ Program aligns with PCPPI\u2019s broader sustainability and corporate social responsibility efforts, particularly in advancing education and youth development. Through this collaboration, PCPPI aims to foster a supportive learning environment that empowers children to read, learn, and thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9651.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" data-attachment-id=\"69104\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/lifestyle\/pcppi-gawad-kalinga-partner-to-address-literacy-gaps-among-young-learners-launches-read-program-in-cavite\/attachment\/img_9651\/#main\" data-orig-file=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9651.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1280,853\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1768558893&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_9651\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;(PCPPI donated two printers to Pinagsanhan Elementary School)&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9651-300x200.jpg\" data-large-file=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9651-1024x682.jpg\" data-id=\"69104\" src=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9651-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-69104\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9651-1024x682.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9651-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9651-768x512.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9651.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">(PCPPI donated two printers to Pinagsanhan Elementary School)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9615.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" data-attachment-id=\"69103\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/lifestyle\/pcppi-gawad-kalinga-partner-to-address-literacy-gaps-among-young-learners-launches-read-program-in-cavite\/attachment\/img_9615\/#main\" data-orig-file=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9615.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1280,853\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1768558300&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_9615\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;(PCPPI Chief ESG Officer Atty.
