ASUNCION, DAVAO DEL NORTE—Coinciding with this year’s conduct of the National Schools Maintenance Week or Brigada Eskwela, over 300 elementary schoolchildren of Laak, Compostella Valley received their school starter packs in the joint outreach program conducted by the 60th Infantry Battalion, 4th Platoon of ComVal Provincial Public Safety Company, Angel without Wings Group, Risen Savior Missions, and private individual donors last May 31.
The activity, dubbed as “Tulong Pag-asa Para sa Eskwela” is
a simple gift-giving program where students from Grades 1 through 6 are given a
school starter pack consisting of a pair of shoes (sponsored by Toms
International); notebooks, pad papers, and coloring and writing materials; and
an oral hygiene set. While the program primarily benefits the students, the
organizer of the activity deem it as a reward for parents who have shown
persistent support not only in the Brigada Eskwela but also in the other endeavors
of their children's school.
The selected beneficiaries of the Program were the elementary schools of Barangay Mabuhay and Imelda--both of Laak, CVP—which were recently affected by a series of armed clashes between the military and the communist rebel group NPA. (Civil-Military Operations-60th Infantry Battalion, 10ID, PA)
