2017 marks the 10th anniversary of iLearners Inc., and to celebrate this milestone, the non-profit organization is Going Digital to reshape learning in rural Cebu. The team of literacy warriors has been reaching out to the poorest rural primary educational institutions in Cebu, and has been constant in helping out three elementary schools in Carcar, Asturias and Mactan through test programs namely Brighter Future Project, Christmas Joys, Sipilyo Campaign, Ed Tour and Reach-out-and-Read to directly address the illiteracy problem, and its contributing factors like absenteeism and inadequacy of resources.

This year, iLearners inc.’s theme is to “Go Digital” and aims to reshape learning in rural Cebu. It intends to introduce iLibrary to three of its beneficiary schools starting this year.

iLibrary: iLearners Inc. Multimedia Library
iLibrary is a Multimedia Library that will serve as a space for pupils to do research, and a place to spend their spare time at to learn and explore. The Multimedia Library will include a Music Station, Audio Visual Set, two computer packs with encyclopedia database, an art section and shelves with physical books that will include a curated list of books and novels, aside from the academic and reference types.
This year, iLearners Inc. will start setting up its first iLibrary in Lunas Elementary School in Calidngan Carcar, and is hopeful that two more will be put up in two of its other beneficiary schools before the end of 2019.
