CLARK FREEPORT At least 33 schools around the freeport benefited from the Brigada Eskwela 2022 program of Clark Development Corporation (CDC) and its locators.

The schools from Pampanga and Tarlac received construction and paint materials including supplies such as printers, inks, projectors, boxes of face masks, gallons of alcohol, and fire extinguishers.

Among the locators who handed their donations are the Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI); Bolder Philippines Ltd., Inc.; Evertrust Business Solutions, Inc.; Fontana Hot Spring Leisure Parks; Global Square Plaza Philippine Corp.; LSG Industrial; and Sumidenso Automotive Technologies Asia Corp. (SAT-A).

Armchairs made from recovered wood in Clark were also given by CDC Environmental Permits Division (EPD) headed by Engr. Rogelio M. Magat as part of the donations.

CDC Director Bryan Matthew C. Nepomuceno attended the turnover ceremonies, on behalf of CDC President and Chief Executive Officer Agnes Devanadera.

Bamban, Tarlac Public Schools District Supervisor Rosalinda C. Bartolome thanked CDC and Clark locators for their donation.

Brigada Eskwela is a joint annual corporate social responsibility (CSR) project of CDC’s External Affairs Division (EAD) headed by CDC Assistant Vice President for External Affairs Rommel C. Narciso, in partnership with Clark locators.

Under the CSR and Placement Division (CSRPD) headed by its manager Herbert S. Angeles, it aims to mobilize parents, alumni, non-government organizations, teachers, students, and other individuals to volunteer their time and skills to do repairs, maintenance work, and clean-up of public elementary, and secondary schools.
