Abstract

This study investigated the relationship of social support to the financial stability and well-being of student beneficiaries in Asenso Pamilya: One Family, One Professional Program at a selected tertiary school in Ozamiz City during the school year 2023-2024.
This study employed a descriptive-correlational research design, and respondents were
chosen using purposive sampling. A total of one hundred sixty-nine (169) respondents were given survey forms. Financial Stability Questionnaire, Social Support Questionnaire, and Student Well-being Questionnaire were used as instruments in
gathering the data that were analyzed and interpreted using Mean, Standard Deviation, and Pearson Product-Moment Correlation Coefficient. Results show that Peer Support
Initiatives and Financial Assistance received by student beneficiaries were given a very good mark. However, Guidance and Counseling, and Community Engagement Opportunity were rated as good; student beneficiaries' financial stability was also
regarded as very stable, and their well-being was similarly rated very good. It was found that there was a significant relationship between student beneficiaries’ social support and
financial stability. Additionally, it was found that there was a significant relationship between student beneficiaries’ well-being and social support in terms of peer support initiatives. However, guidance and counseling, community engagement, and financial
well-being do not have any significance towards student beneficiaries' well-being. These findings highlight the positive impact of the program. The study recommends that future
researchers conduct a qualitative methods approach to examine how various types of social support influence different dimensions of students' well-being over time. This research can inform effective interventions and policies to enhance social support systems in educational settings, thereby improving student outcomes and experiences.
