"Project Aral is an initiative of the National Bookstore Foundation. Through their bookstores, customers donate school kits for public schools. The Foundation then works with other like-minded organizations to distribute these kits to public schoolchildren. One of these organizations is KaEskwela." Thank you National Bookstore and generous customers! :)
Last week, KaEskwela visited 8 schools and delivered 10,783 kits :) I joined the last 2 deliveries in Montalban and Laguna.
Our delivery to Macabud Elementary school in Montalban was extra exciting (or should I say stressful?) because our truck was towed by the "MMDA". Thankfully, we were able to avoid extortion and things worked out well in the end.
Happy kids...
and yummy sopas for merienda. Thank you, teachers :)
The next day we headed to Buhay Elementary School in Siniloan, Laguna. The teachers welcomed us with a nice home cooked lunch :)
More happy kids...
