“Tulong Barya para sa Eskwela,” a component of the National Coin Recirculation Program, is a nationwide coin collection and fund-raising   campaign for the benefit of public elementary schools.

Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas also launched the campaign in 29 schools covering 15 regions, including a joint launch with ARMM in Region XII.

Tulong Barya para sa Eskwela met its twin objectives of promoting coin recirculation through the regular use of coins and raising funds for the benefit of public elementary schools.

Aside from increased public awareness of the need to regularly use coins, the campaign flushed out 6,711,384 pieces of coins equivalent to production savings of P8,222,116.54 at P1.2251 weighted average per piece.

Based on reports from bank associations, TBPSE raised P6,658,548.55 — the entire amount has been turned over to DepEd.

Encouraged by the results, the Monetary Board decided to donate 100 percent of production savings to schools that participated in the campaign in the form of computers. The total amount of savings is equivalent to 510 computers.

A total of 1,796 schools participated in the campaign distributed as follows: National Capital Region    402 Luzon except NCR           816 Visayas		    284 Mindanao		    294 Total                     1,796
