“Happiness doesn’t result from what we get, but from what we give.”

-Ben Carson

The PMMA Department of Research, Development and Extension (DRDE) organized and spearheaded a Book Donation Program with the theme, “Aklat na Bigay mo, Susi ng Kinabukasan ko.” held today, April 4, 2024 at Mabato Elementary School in Sitio Lubong, Paite, San Narciso, Zambales, together with the PMMA Graduate School.

Books, charts, and board games were donated to the school, along with food packs and several educational supplies that were distributed to the 65 student-recipients. 

The students of Mabato Elementary School expressed their gratitude through their loud “Thank you” and their warmest smiles, which moved the hearts of the extensionists.

The DRDE would like to thank the PMMA Management, donors, and extensionists who helped and supported the activity. May God continue to bless you abundantly so that you can continue to become a blessing to others. We hope that by people’s generosity and desire to help those in need, this will only be the start of more future acts of kindness and social responsibility.
