Advancements in Technology Nurturing the Development of Youth
Santander Chile has taken a significant step in supporting the education of students in vulnerable areas during the ongoing pandemic. The financial institution has provided technological equipment to several institutions, including SOS Children's Villages Chile and Colegio San Juan de Lampa.
The equipment, which includes mobile devices, computers, and tablets, aims to ensure that students can keep up with their school work and remain in contact with their friends and teachers. This initiative is crucial, according to Gonzalo Rodríguez, head of Responsible Banking at Santander Chile, as the health crisis has had a severe impact on education.
Santander Chile has provided 40 computers to SOS Children's Villages Chile, enabling boys, girls, and young people to continue learning remotely. Meanwhile, Colegio San Juan de Lampa, which belongs to the Astoreca Foundation, received 84 tablets from Santander Chile.
The provision of these resources is not limited to these two institutions. Santander Chile has also supplied equipment to foundations, schools, and fire brigades, all with the aim of supporting boys, girls, and young people in their learning and socialization process during the pandemic.
In addition to the recent equipment, Santander Chile has supplied more than 1,200 mobile devices, computers, tablets, and study furniture to 17 institutions since the first half of 2021. This initiative is part of a broader effort to prevent interruptions in the learning and socialisation process.
While there are no specific recent details about this initiative in the available search results, Santander Chile's commitment to corporate social responsibility is well-documented. For the most accurate and detailed updates, official Santander Chile communications, press releases, or local news sources would be the best places to check.
It is worth noting that the technological equipment provided includes academic scholarships for higher education studies, further demonstrating Santander Chile's dedication to supporting educational opportunities for those in need.
Technology is integral to Santander Chile's initiative, as they have provided electronic devices like mobile devices, computers, and tablets to multiple institutions for online education and self-development. This equipment aims to facilitate learning for students in vulnerable areas, ensuring they can keep up with their studies and maintain contact with teachers during the ongoing pandemic.
