Human concerns take many forms. In Cabancalan 1 Elementary School where the yearly enrollment is always escalating, the number of undernourished kids is also catching up.
During the November 8 launching of the feeding program, about 300 pupils were fed with Century products prepared to meet the food pyramid for children aged 7-11.
The school nutritionist, Ana Mae Echavez, said that she was very happy to know that companies like Century Pacific Group has initiated such program to alleviate the malnutrition problems which have drastically deteriorated the academic preparation of the pupils.
During the launch witnessed by Mandaue City school division heads, children received the project with much gusto while as they took large bites on sandwiches stuffed with tuna.
Some 22 parents were also met by a member of the CITE team, Marlon Valencia, to remind the parents of their role in beefing up the health of the children.
Feeding programs shall be conducted every MWF until supply lasts. Monitoring shall be conducted every feeding activity to keep track of the progress.
