The DDC Group celebrates its newest corporate social responsibility initiative through the blessing of a new school building in Leyte, Philippines. July 29, 2025 // Evergreen, Colo. - As part of its global commitment to corporate social responsibility, tech-led business process management (BPM) company, The DDC Group is furthering its focus on tomorrow’s future through investments in education for youth. In an initiative spearheaded by DDC’s Co-Founder and Chairman of the Board, Jan Trevalyan, a new school building is being donated to expand Libertad National High School in Barangay Libertad, Palo, Leyte, Philippines.
The blessing ceremony for the newly built two-story school building was provided by a local priest in the presence of Department of Education representatives, Trevalyan, other The DDC Group representatives, and local government officials.
“We’re proud to invest in education, we aim to strengthen a community that is already rich in talent and potential,” said The DDC Group’s Co-Founder and Chairman of the Board, Jan Trevalyan. “This community holds a special connection to many at DDC, making our support especially meaningful.”
The state-of-the-art facility will house several spacious classrooms, each thoughtfully designed to accommodate up to 42 students. With multiple classes scheduled daily, this new infrastructure aims to enhance learning environments for Senior High School students. The initiative reflects The DDC Group’s unwavering dedication to advancing education and empowering communities across the globe.
“This building project underscores the power of efforts to create lasting impacts on future generations,” said The DDC Group’s Chief Purpose Officer, Michelle Davies. “Through our DDC Cares initiative, we focus on enhancing our CSR efforts across the globe through various projects unique to each community, maximizing meaningful impact.”
