At
the Punta Integrated School
in Calamba City, BAVI volunteers, led by president and general manager Ronald
Mascariñas, partnered with parents of
the students and other stakeholders in repainting the classrooms’ walls, ceilings,
chairs and tables. The company behind the famous Chooks-to-Go oven-roasted
chicken brand also donated gallons of paint and painting equipment.
“We at BAVI are committed to help provide
needy schools with classrooms that are conducive to learning. We believe that
this will inspire our young students to study more, learn new things, including
love for country, towards becoming the best that they can be,” Mascariñas said.
In
Butuan City, more than a dozen BAVI
volunteers also helped repaint the Taligaman Central Elementary School and
Ampayon Central Elementary School using paint donated by the company.
BAVI
also provided funds to the Amado
V. Hernandez Elementary School in Tondo, Manila and the Balatong B Elementary
School in Pulilan, Bulacan to support their activities
during Brigada Eskwela which is also known as National
Schools Maintenance Week.
