1 of 2

Teachers across the country are encouraged to integrate financial literacy into their lessons using free, ready-to-use teaching resources developed through the collaboration of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), Department of Education (DepEd), and BDO Foundation.

More than 300 lesson exemplars and 10 financial education videos are now available on the DepEd Learning Portal.

Aligned with the K–12 curriculum, these tools can be used in classroom and co-curricular activities, empowering teachers to make financial concepts relatable and actionable for Filipino learners.

The learning materials cover essential topics such as saving, budgeting, financial planning, and avoiding financial scams.

This initiative supports the BSP’s National Strategy for Financial Inclusion and DepEd’s broader goal of promoting financial education as a key life skill among students.

BDO Foundation, the corporate social responsibility arm of BDO Unibank Inc., has played a vital role in producing resources to help cultivate responsible financial decision-making from a young age.

“Teachers are our strongest allies in building a financially responsible generation. We created these tools to make it easier for them to teach money skills in the classroom without the need to develop materials from scratch,” said BDO Foundation President Mario A. Deriquito.

BDO Foundation is the corporate social responsibility arm of BDO Unibank.

Founded in 2008, the foundation contributes to nation-building by addressing the needs of various sectors through programs in financial inclusion, disaster response, rehabilitation, and rebuilding.

Supported by the BDO Unibank community and in partnership with local government units and non-governmental organizations, BDO Foundation mounts relief operations, rehabilitates rural health units, constructs school buildings, and implements financial education programs nationwide.
