GLOBAL GOALS
Out-of-school youths complete masonry course
The scholars’ first project was the construction of a hand-washing facility for Gaboc Elementary School in Manolo Fortich to address the need for proper hygiene facilities in educational institutions
With the support of Aboitiz Power Corporation subsidiary Hedcor, and in partnership with Aboitiz Foundation, 20 out-of-school youth from Barangay Lingion, Manolo Fortich, Bukidnon recently completed their masonry course.
The beneficiaries finished their month-long TESDA-accredited National Certification I at the local Public Employment Service Office Municipal Training Center where they learned how to prepare masonry materials and perform basic masonry works.
The initiative, aligning with UN Sustainable Development Goal #8 ("Decent Work and Economic Growth"), seeks to open up opportunities for livelihood and support for families and the community.
