Enhancing Education and Opportunity in the Cuatro Community

At RealPage, we believe being a good corporate citizen is more than bringing jobs to the global communities we serve. In partnership with Kids International Ministries, RealPage is helping to expand Cuatro Christian School (CCS) and transform it from a good school into a first-class school. In 2006, the school started with children from the children's home and later opened to children in the Cuatro community.

Currently, our RealPage Philippines team is made up of more than 1,800 employees committed to serving their communities where they work and live. “Community transformation has many pieces and while education is a key component, Kids International Ministries believes community infrastructure, proper nutrition, medical care and character development all play a role,” says Denler. “Our investment in the community prompted Cuatro’s local government to partner with us and pave the dirt roads. This [CCS] development is bringing people in the community together and enriching their lives like never before. At RealPage, we are committed to taking our giving to the next level with RealPageGIVES.
