Davao City, Philippines—As the school year 2020 – 2021 begins in the face of the new normal, Udenna Foundation, in partnership with Global Synergy Trade and Distribution partnered with the Department of Education-Region XI to provide essential items for use by public schools and learning communities.
School supplies and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) were recently donated to the Department of Education Region XI office in anticipation of the coming new school year.
“We wanted to ensure that the needs of school children, teachers, and administrators are taken care of, most especially the need for items that directly answer their collective safety and wellbeing as we enter another school year,” said Tessa Artadi, Udenna Foundation regional representative.
Artadi further added, “This is testament to how private institutions with the government can effectively mitigate the effects of the pandemic as we move forward and point us in the proper way by which we all can work together to benefit our communities.”
The Global Synergy Trade and Distribution representative Charlie Ubiña Jr. also said, “We are honored to be able to contribute to the community in our own small way and having Udenna Foundation and the Department of Education alongside us truly makes for a humbling experience. We only have high hopes as public schools begin the new school year.”
