Sharing Resources. Strengthening Partnerships. Supporting Inclusive Education.

A request for support became an opportunity to put compassion into action.

The University of the Assumption (UA) donated an air-conditioning unit to Pampanga High School, following the UA President Fr. Oliver G. Yalung favorable response to the school’s request. The donation extends practical support to the school’s Special Needs Education (SNED) community and reflects UA’s commitment to sharing what it can with its stakeholders.

Receiving the donation on behalf of Pampanga High School were Anna Y. Manalastas, SNED Faculty Vice President; Angelo Maniago, SNED Teacher; and Jeleene Henson, SNED Teacher. The turnover was facilitated by Dr. Arnel Sicat, Vice President for Academic Affairs, and Dr. Michaella Castillo, Assistant Vice President for Academic Affairs and concurrent MARIAE Director.

This initiative puts the spirit of SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals into practice through cooperation and resource sharing between educational institutions. It also supports the intent of SDG 4: Quality Education by responding to a need within a school community serving learners with diverse needs.

For UA, stakeholders are part of a shared mission. Listening to their needs and responding with available resources makes partnership a tangible expression of service.

Through every act of sharing, we strengthen the community we serve.
