CSR PROJECT: Sta. Monica Elementary School

For our CSR project, my group mates and I decided to help a school in Hagonoy, Bulacan that was shattered by the typhoon Lando. When we raised our idea, Professor Marasigan told to the whole class about it and she asked the other groups if they want to join us. Then, they taught that it was a good idea to go as a whole class so they decided to join us.


Selle, AJ, Val, Raymond, Christian, Kuya Lino and Ian are the representatives of each group that visited Sta. Monica Elementary School, to check what we could do to help them. Due to floodwaters, some of the armchairs used by the students were damaged. Carpenters were able to repair them but they asked our help if we could repaint these 80 armchairs. On top of that, the principal also asked us if we could assist in elevating the pathway towards the students’ classroom. Sta. Monica is located beside a river, so during high tide the pathway becomes flooded. Students find it hard to walk across the school.

For us to assist the school needs, we have to raise a fund. For our group, we decided to sell cookies and cupcakes. These are our products:






Other groups would raise their fund through block screening of the movie Spectre, Trivia Night wherein they will organize an event in a restaurant; the other groups will sell Tshirts, yema cake and cosmetics from Rustan’s. Everybody is actively participating with regard to raising funds. Selling was really a challenging part for us but I must say that everyone is really enjoying. Besides, whenever we think that these efforts could improve the school, it really motivates us. Through this activity, we were able to develop patience, teamwork and most especially our marketing skills! Haha! I am excited and we are really looking forward for the success of this project.
