Abstract: Extension service is an inherent function of an institution of higher learning to initiate, catalyze, and sustain the development of various communities, using their experiences and available resources. This study specifically employed a case study as a qualitative research strategy to provide a comprehensive and in-depth description of how the extension program changed the lives of the participants. Also, the study investigated the challenges encountered by the College of Accountancy and Business Administration Faculty and students in organizing and sustaining the partnership with Zone 2. Additionally, the experiences of the participants in establishing and sustaining the partnership were also examined. The study used the Theory of Change, as a means for developing and managing partnerships and partnership strategies.
