UNIVERSITY OF PERPETUAL HELP SYSTEM DALTA Page 1

The University of Perpetual Help System DALTA is a nonsectarian, co-educational,private university, with

campuses at Las Piñas, Molino, Cavite, and Calamba City, Laguna in the Philippines. The university offers programs

in preschool, primary, secondary, tertiary levels, including short term vocational, technical, and special programs.

The School Official Name and Seal

The school’s official name is University of Perpetual Help System DALTA (UPHSD).

The seal was inspired by the special devotion of Dr. Josefina L. Tamayo, UPHS co-

founder, to the Blessed mother, especially to the image of Our Lady of Perpetual

Help, the school’s patroness. This well-known icon from the Byzantine era depicts

the figure of Mary offering love and comfort to her son Jesus, even as the angelic

beings above bear the instruments of His coming suffering and passion. Mary looks

straight at the viewer, as if to say that her perpetual help and comfort are also available to anyone who

comes to her in need. The infant Jesus is symbolic of the youth who is nurtured by a devoted and loving

Mary which speaks of the motherly care and love of the University. The two laurel leaves represent the

two sons of the CEO and Chairman of the Board who are actively continuing the work that was started

by their parents in the community. The leaves also signify excellence which the university pursues not

only in academics but also in leadership and in human relations for the fulfillment of the aspirations of

the university as it carries on propagating its mission, to mold and educate youth as Helpers of God. The

cameo is bordered by oval lines of maroon in white background which are the colors of the institution.

Maroon symbolizes the red blood of courage, vigor, and determination; white for purity and the blue

and gold colors of the Mother of Perpetual Help icon which symbolize generosity, abundance, hope, and

vision. 1975 was the year when the University of Perpetual Help System DALTA was established while

the tagline “Character Building is Nation Building”- UPHSD’s institutional motto expresses the

encompassing commitment of Perpetual Help education to national development and progress.

The Birth of the University

Antonio Laperal Tamayo, and his wife, Daisy Moran Tamayo, founded the University Of Perpetual Help

System DALTA on February 5, 1975. The term “DALTA” in the name of the university is the acronym

for Daisy Antonio Laperal Tamayo, the conjugal founders.

The founding of UPHSD was inspired by the parents of DR/BGEN ANTONIO L TAMAYO, Dr Jose G.

Tamayo and his wife, Dr Josefina Laperal Tamayo, who earlier founded what is now known as the

University Of Perpetual Help System JONELTA, which has campuses in Manila, Pangasinan, Isabela,

Laguna, and Cavite.

On February 5, 1975, just seven years after his parents opened the Perpetual Help College and Hospital

in Manila, Dr/BGen Antonio Tamayo and Dr. Daisy Moran Tamayo founded their own Perpetual Help

College of Rizal (PHCR) along Alabang-Zapote Road, in Las Piñas City. The school was housed in a four-

storey building constructed in the record time of four months.


The initial academic offering of PHCR is Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Upon opening of the course, 700

students immediately enrolled. This spectacular beginning for the infant school opened the way for its

rapid expansion in terms of curricular programs, faculty, research, community service, infrastructure,

and professional development, leading the founders to convert the college to a university with the

official name, University of Perpetual Help, Rizal (UPHR). Today, the former UPHR is known by its

amended official registered and business name as University of Perpetual Help System Dalta (UPHSD).

In 1976, one year after opening of the PHCR, they established the Perpetual Help Medical Center

(PHMC) about 200 meters from the University. Through the years, the PHMC metamorphosed into the

University of Perpetual Help Rizal Medical Center (UPHRMC). Today, its amended official registered and

business name is University of Perpetual Help DALTA Medical Center (UPHDMC).

Administration of UPHSD

Complementing the leadership and management functions of Dr/BGen Antonio L. Tamayo and Dr. Daisy

Moran Tamayo are their two sons, Anthony Jose and Richard Antonio, both cum laude graduates of the

University of the Philippines. Anthony Jose M. Tamayo assumed presidency of the UPHSD campuses on

January 2010. He is a cum laude graduate of Accountancy in University of the Philippines-Diliman, a

Certified Public Accountant, MBA degree holder from Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern
