A total of five (5) rehabilitated classrooms and two (2) new classrooms were turned over in Sulangan National High School and six (6) restored classroom plus (2) new classrooms were also turned over in Sulangan Central Elementary School, all of which have a toilet inside the classroom where Mariwasa tiles were installed.
The ceremony was attended by GMA Kapuso Foundation, INC. (GMAKF) executive vice president and chief operating officer Mel Tiangco, together with several school and municipality officials and representatives of Mariwasa Siam Ceramics, Inc. (MSC).
In November last year, MSC partnered with GMAKF and donated P1,000,000.00 worth of relief goods and in-kind products for rehabilitation use to help fellow Filipinos alleviate their suffering caused by the disaster.
MSC and GMAKF are long time partners in uplifting the lives of our countrymen in need as part of the former’s corporate social responsibility and the latter’s mission and long-standing initiative as a socio-civic foundation.
