Lima EnerZone and Aboitiz Foundation Provide Clean Water Access to San Lucas Elementary School

Elementary students of San Lucas Elementary School at San Lucas, Lipa City, Batangas,  have faced a daily challenge that many often take for granted: access to clean and safe water. The school’s limited water access has highlighted the need to create a healthier and more comfortable learning environment.

Seeing this urgent need, Lima EnerZone Corporation and Aboitiz Foundation stepped in to make a difference. On October 10, the two organizations officially turned over a rehabilitated and upgraded water system to the school, ensuring that students and teachers can now access safe and sufficient water every day.

The initiative, a component of EnerZones' yearly Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) commitment, aims to assist communities and schools both within and outside its franchise area. The project, led by Operations Manager of Lima EnerZone, Engr. Richard Bulaon, Operations Supervisor of Lima EnerZone Engr. Elmer Agapay, and Marketing and Communications Supervisor Jeff Figuerrez, with support from Engr. Richard Ramos from Lima EnerZone, underscores the company's dedication to addressing urgent community needs through sustainable and impactful actions.

According to Engr. Richard Bulaon's Message of Partnership, "Students and Teachers can now focus on learning and carry out their duties in a safer and more comfortable setting.”

The event was attended by various officials, including Hon. Windy P. Lat, Barangay Captain of San Lucas; Hon. Perfecto M. Pagcaliwanagan, Committee of Education; Dr. Roland U. Diaz, School Division Education Program Supervisor; and Mrs. Flordeliza L. Ritan, EdD, Principal of San Lucas Elementary School. Also present were members of the SPTA and teachers from San Lucas Elementary School.

“With this rehabilitated water system, we ensure that our school community will have better access to clean and safer water,” said Mrs. Flordeliza L. Ritan, EdD, the School Principal of San Lucas Elementary School.

Lima EnerZone and Aboitiz Foundation collaborate with local institutions to support underserved communities. Their CSR initiatives focus on youth development, environmental protection, and access to essential resources, aligning with local and national development goals.

Lima EnerZone's commitment to community partnership goes beyond electricity supply; it's about empowering lives through education. This initiative creates a lasting impact, especially on the future of every child.
