A total of 16 Visayan Electric partner schools received printers and bond papers to augment their supplies for this school year’s blended learning requirements.

We hope that the 16 schools that we chose will be able to put these items to good use,” said Visayan Electric President and Chief Operating Officer, Engr. Raul C. Lucero.
