When the
grade school students of Northville Elementary School arrive in their
classrooms on next academic year 2013- 2014, a mountain of school supplies will be
waiting.
A total of 600
brand new school supplies that included packs of pencils, writing papers and
notebooks were donated by SM City
Marilao to Northville Youth Reliable Organization, a community organization
seeking ways to improve youth welfare through community service and youth
oriented programs.
Through SM Foundation Incorporated, the
donation sought to supply the needs of children and schools in less affluent
areas of the basic materials they will need to carry out their education.
According to
Northville Youth Reliable Organization President Jayson Sta. Rosa, parents
typically struggle to provide the expensive list of items required for school
like pencils, notebooks, papers, glue and colors. He also noted that students
often use hand me downs or come to school with nothing at all.
Receiving the
brand new school supplies from SM City
Marilao will motivate students to do well in school. “We are thankful for
the generous donation of SM City Marilao. Children will now be excited to go to
school. The school supplies will surely help them to grow and flourish” Sta.
Rosa explained.
Sta. Rosa
added that the organization is also planning to give a part of the school
supplies to students who were affected by the recent calamity. Many students
don’t have the materials to begin with since classes resumed after the massive
flooding in Bulacan. The donated school supplies will help students to start
fresh.
