Dr. Antonio L. Tamayo developed the University creed "Character Building is Nation Building". Stressing this belief, he said "our young can only be assured of a better tomorrow by building the right kind of character today – respectful, hardworking and committed to the formation of a prosperous and a wealthy nation. This development, however, will need a requisite Christian character, that will build a nation." The University of Perpetual Help Rizal, now the University of Perpetual Help System DALTA, is a subsidiary of the DALTA Group of Companies. It is in consortium with JONELTA Group of Companies forming the Perpetual Help System. Each entity under the System comprises a College/University and a Hospital/Medical Center.
