The CEMEX Philippines Foundation
Inc. answered the Department of Education's (DepEd) call for
the private sector to participate in National Schools Maintenance
Week also known as the "Brigada Eskwela."
An annual activity spear-headed by the DepEd, this year the
Foundation joined to benefit over 2,000 students in its adopted
schools CEPOC Central School in Tina-an, Naga, Cebu and Sapinit
Elementary School in Antipolo City.
Assembling a team of volunteers composed of CEMEX employees,
their spouses and children, the Foundation worked hand in
hand with school officials and the local Parent-Teacher association
to get the two schools ready for use in time for the June
5 school opening.
Preparing facilities for the new school year, volunteers
swept school grounds, cleaned classrooms, and repainted school
facilities. They were also ably assisted by CEMEX's own contractors
who also wanted to give back to the community. |
