WELCOME TO THE SPUP KNOWLEDGE FOR DEVELOPMENT CENTER!

“We have long advocated for the integration of development issues in education and in our school’s community outreach programs. The KDC sets the environment for development. We will make sure that our KDC is used not only as a center for sharing knowledge and experiences, but also for building partnerships in the community, and stimulating people participation in development.”

- Sr. Remy Angela Junio, spc, SPUP President
