Technology company Ricoh Philippines recently partnered with one of the biggest publishers in the country, Phoenix Publishing with an initiative to help local schools with useful and practical machines that will improve quality of education. Called Alagang Phoenix, the project aims to donate printers and projectors to selected sectarian schools in Luzon.
The publishing house has been in the business of 60 years and has partnered with these schools that have shaped countless students in decades. However, they still face challenges like having proper copying and printing tools used in teaching.
Despite being private schools, they usually operate mainly on staff for education. Having equipment such as these would be costly for the school and will also affect tuition fees causing less enrollees. But this is what Alagang Phoenix wants to solve.

Ricoh Philippines’ partnership with Alagang Phoenix is an opportunity to develop the disadvantaged communities thru education by supporting mission schools from different dioceses in Luzon.
Held at the Alegria Lounge at the headquarters of Phoenix Publishing House, the turnover ceremony of Ricoh multifunction printers and projectors were graced by the representatives of the recipient schools namely Rev. Fr. Elmer Jose Dizon, superintendent of the Archdiocese of San Fernando Educational System, Msgr. Mauel Bravo Jr., superintendent of the Archdiocesan of Lingayen Dagupan Catholic Schools, Rev. Fr. Alain Manalo, superintendent the Diocese of Imus Catholic Educational System, Inc., and the Msgr. Michael Feliciano Veneracion, superintendent of Cabanatuan Catholic Educational System (CACES).
Rev. Fr. Alain Manalo, the superintendent of the Diocese of Imus, Cavite said that some schools “need to go to the next town to have material photocopied” and that he was very appreciative of the donation of Ricoh multifunction printers (MFP) and projectors as this would go a long way in improving the quality of education in these schools. The other superintendents were amazed by the MFP’s features and say that the schools’ teaching and testing materials will be greatly enhanced.
Ricoh multifunction printers will help the schools with their scanning and printing needs. The projectors will also aid the teachers with their visual presentations and be more engaging with their students.
