Amidst the rush of  the busy season, the Business Risk Services (BRS) group took time out to give a little bit of  love to kids with cancer last March 28. In cooperation with the Kythe Foundation and P&A for a Cause (PAUSE), Joewar Cadungogs’s mentoring team took the lead in organizing the “Celebrate Life” party for 15 children in the charity ward of the UST Hospital.  On a sunny Saturday morning, the BRS people shed off their serious side and embraced the child within, as they interacted with kids who were undergoing treatment for cancer and other diseases.

Differently-abled students of the Kapitbahayan Elementary School cap the school years that was made more exciting through the support of Punongbayan & Araullo Foundation.

The corporate social responsibility arm of accounting firm Punongbayan and Araullo (P&A) organized P&Aralan Espesyal, which provided interactive classroom materials and equipment tailored for students with special needs in the Navotas school. The foundation has also reached out to other students through a school-wide feeding program, which contributed to significant improvements in the weight of 128 children-beneficiaries.

The project was implemented in partnership with the Philippine Business for Social Progress (PBSP), of which P&A is a member.
