“He had a mission and vision to help educate the less fortunate ones; that’s why he established the National University. And with the partnership with SM, Mr. Henry Sy also has the same mission and vision to help educate the less fortunate ones because they both believe that through education, they can uplift the lives of those in poverty.” – Mr. Nilo Ocampo, NU Vice President for Administrative Services and grandson of Don Mariano Fortunato Jhocson.
