Manila Water Foundation (MWF), in partnership with Prime Infra Foundation (PIF), recently inaugurated two sets of 10-faucet hygiene facilities in two schools in the Municipality of Pakil, Laguna.
Part of MWF’s Lingap program supporting the Department of Education’s (DepEd) WASH in Schools (WinS) program, the handwashing stations were donated to the Cornelio Celis Dalena Elementary School and Pakil Elementary School, impacting more than 1,200 individuals.
Leaders present in the inauguration were Pakil Mayor Ronald James “Unad” Hidalgo’s representative, executive assistant Patrick Hidalgo, DepEd Pakil Public Schools district supervisor Julie Sarmiento, school heads of the two schools.
The mayor and the DepEd leaders expressed their gratitude to MWF and PIF, represented by CSR program and operations head Bernadette Tan and community affairs manager Cirio Pastolero. The leaders said the donations highlighted the importance of collaboration for health and sanitation for learners and everyone on campus.
MWF executive director Reginald Andal said the Lingap programs in the community demonstrate the synergy of care for the health and well-being of Pakilenyo learners.
In the continuing partnership for #SafeWASH Pinas, and to enable hygiene habits to fight germs, hygiene kits with hand towels and bars of Safeguard also were handed over to learners during the turnover ceremony.
MWF and PIF also gave the schools info-education posters on proper hygiene and sets of WASH Up! Handwashing Stations were handed over to the Municipality of Pakil for installation in health centers across the town.
