Advancing Basic Education in the Philippines project (ABC+), together with John B. Lacson Foundation Maritime University (Arevalo) Inc.’s Community Extension and Services and volunteers, worked hand in hand in kitting and repacking school supplies to be distributed to its recipients during a Volunteers` Festival last Saturday, February 4.

The said project works with Depart of Education, local governments, and private sectors and has national and international linkages that support endeavors for the good of the young learners.

JBLFMU-Arevalo was chosen to be its partner to initiate in giving various school supplies to Grades 1 to 3 pupils in Region VI who were affected by flood due to Typhoon Paeng.

Team and student volunteers worked together in unloading the boxes of supplies that were delivered at JBLFMU-Arevalo Gymnasium last Thursday, February 2.

The Volunteers’ Festival seeks to promote students' learning despite the aftermath of a disaster by providing educational resources and school materials that can help children with their academic performances.
