The Kaakibat ng ASP-QC Credit Cooperative is a newly-formed cooperative that hopes to help members with providing loans to families with autism, encourage savings and eventually provide employment to their special children.
The cooperative was launched last 05 August 2013 at the Pahiyas Function Hall of National Power Corporation. A Pre-membership seminar was also held on the same day. Kaakibat ng ASP QC Credit Cooperative was formed by member-parents of ASP QC chapters – Commonwealth, Cubao, Diliman, Lagro, Novaliches.
