As part of its Gender and Development initiative as well as its desire to help women members recover and sdjust emotionally and financially after giving birth, the HPP Employees Multipurpose Cooperative has launched its Maternity Benefit Policy.

Simply put, the policy will provide new mothers with the option to have a 3-month relief from loan payments without additional interest and/or penalties.

Application is easy. Eligible members just need to login to the website, submit a ticket under "Maternity Benefit" category, and attach proof of delivery (e.g. hospital receipt, billing, etc.). The coop office will then send a new loan form to formalize the process. That's it!

For more details on the policy and availment process, please visit the website (hpp.coop - About Us - Policies/Procedures - Maternity Benefit).

Due to its increasing membership base coupled with limited resources, HPPCOOP has been having difficulty keeping up and tracking member issues, concerns, queries, loan applications, and others. To combat this, HPPCOOP has launched it's own HPP Ticketing System aimed at helping the cooperative better handle member issues and improve response time.

In addition, Loan Applications (except Online Loans) will also be processed through the HPP Ticketing System. A special category called "Apply For Loan" will be used specifically for this purpose.

As this is exclusive to members, login is required to be able to submit a ticket. The system also allows members to easily view the status of all their tickets.

As they say, "you cannot manage what you cannot measure". Thus, the HPP Ticketing System is expected to help the coop leadership better manage its limited resources while being able to address members' increasing requirements.

The system is under pilot testing and with the help of the membership, it is expected that the system will be improved over time.

In a meeting held on October 26 2022, the new set of Board of Directors, elected Annie Rose Samson and Adonis Dionisio to continue as Chairperson and Vice Chairperson, respectively. They will serve for a term of one year or until their replacements have been named.

We are excited to announce the launching of our second HPP Vacation Home - the HPP Serin East! As you know, with the increase in our membership base, it has really become a challenge to find available slots on our first HPP Vacation Home. Thus, with the launching of our new HPP Serin East unit, we hope that more members will be able to benefit from our Vacation Home facility. The objective is really to give you a chance to have a quick getaway given that Tagaytay is just a couple of hours away from Manila.

The location is also perfect. Serin East Tagaytay is just beside Serin West and therefore offers you the same convenience of being just a stone's throw away from various points of interest in Tagaytay like malls, churches, restaurants, theme parks, etc.

HPP Serin East unit features:

• Studio unit
• Can accommdate a maximum of 4 guests only
• HPP Member Exclusive Rate: P1,200/night for 2 pax whether weekday, weekend, or holiday. A P100.00 one-time charge per extra person to cover for linens, towels, utitilies, etc.
• P600.00 cleaning fee per booking (one-time)
• Free parking for 1 car

For booking and further details, please go to our website hpp.coop - Services - HPP Vacation Home, where you can choose to either book HPP Serin West or HPP Serin East or both! But please note that as this is exclusive to members, login is required to book.

Lastly, please remember that our HPP Vacation Homes are YOUR homes. Being a member of HPPCOOP, you are a co-owner of these properties. Thus, let's take care of them so we can all enjoy our Homes for many years to come...

So, where do you want to go next? 😊
