Nananawagan ng tulong pinansyal at in-kind donations ang PAMATU - Pagkakaisa ng Mamamayan ng Tundo para sa tinatayang 2,134 pamilyang apektado ng sunog sa Parola Compound, Manila kahapon, Mayo 23.

Tulad ng pahayag ng PAMATU, kami rin ay nagtatanong kung totoong nagkataon lang ang sunog sa Parola na naganap kasabay ng mga “proyektong pangkaunlaran” at negosyong tulay na North-South Harbor Bridge at SALEX. Pinopondohan ng China (loan sa Exim Bank of China, isinasagawa ng China Road and Bridge Corporation). Demolisyon at ibayong kahirapan ang dulot ng mga proyektong ito sa mamamayan ng Parola at hindi ang pangakong kaunlaran.

Kaisa ang Institute for Occupational Health and Safety Development (IOHSAD) sa laban ng mga manggagawa at mamamayan ng Parola para sa kanilang karapatan sa paninirahan. Nananawagan din ang IOHSAD ng agaran, independent at transparent na imbestigasyon ukol sa mga sunog sa Parola.

"Sa mga batang nandito na naka-house, siguro nagtataka kayo bakit namin pinili ito(ng Bahay Pag-asa). Dahil naniniwala si Benilde sa transformational change at gusto ko na maintindihan niyo 'yun at ma-inspire kayo. Pumunta ang mga ate at kuya niyo dito dahil naniniwala kami na ang pagbabago ay isang transpormasyon." - Ms. Cams, Service-Learning Unit Head

Last April 22, the SIGLA Batch of Interior Design Exhibit (INTDXHI) students conducted their project turnover to the De La Salle University - Dasmariñas, Bahay Pag-Asa, a 'transformation center for children in conflict with the law.' The students facilitated the renovation of the center's music hall and bakery. The program included messages from school heads and faculty advisers as well as a description of the process from the project managers. The highlight, however, is the musical performances of the Bahay Pag-asa youth through piano, flute, and choral numbers.

The Service-Learning Unit would like to extend its deepest gratitude to the Interior Design faculty for their efforts, patience, and perseverance in guiding the overall process and project implementation of the current batch. We would also like to thank the administrators of Bahay Pag-asa for opening its doors for our students so that they could synthesize their skills and knowledge into service and compassion. Lastly, we want to congratulate the students on the successful completion of this Service-Learning project.

We hope this initiative becomes a symbol of acceptance and empathy instead of social stigma. We also hope that the revamped spaces become a catalyst for change and empowerment for the youth of Bahay Pag-Asa.

A term filled with meaningful service-learning implementations concluded with each class's final presentation to their respective partner organizations!

The whole month of April was full of sleepless nights, endless revisions, consultations, and final presentations by our students that resulted in excellent outputs and collaterals. They are indeed the epitome of being socially responsible and doing ordinary things extraordinarily well!

The Service-Learning Unit would like to extend its deepest appreciation to our faculty for their seamless guidance and for imparting their expertise to our students. We would also like to thank our partners, our co-educators, for facilitating learning through letting our students experience realities beyond theories and outside the four walls of the classroom.

Last March, there were a total of 11 Service-Learning Deployments for the Benilde Multimedia Arts Multimedia Publishing classes, the last ones for the 2nd term of the academic year.

To facilitate the needed materials for creating video collaterals and educational materials, the FAMA14 class visited Joshua Care International in Taguig City last March 4. Meanwhile, the FAMA8 and FAMA19 classes continued their production shoot with Hospicio de San Jose and Tahanang Walang Hagdanan, Inc., respectively.

With the Quezon City Public Library, the FAMA10 class had their immersion at the District 1 branches. They created several types of collateral, including orientation videos, infographics, posters, and other printable materials.

In line with the celebration of National Women's Month, the FAMA11 class supported the UP Center for Women's Studies Foundation, Inc.'s activities through the event coverage of the 'Charmera Photo Exhibit' and creating a mural at the UPCWGS Grounds' Community Bazaar last March 13. Similarly, FAMA18 documented Lunas Collective’s "Power, Period" creative care sessions at the Commission on Human Rights on March 7 and 8.

On the other hand, the students of FAMA12 documented the National Historical Commission of the Philippines' Ongpin Collection, created audio-visual presentations, and designed pamphlets through their immersion and shoots last March 12 and 19.

Lastly, at Lawang-Bato, Valenzuela, the students of FAMA16 had their immersion with the Center for Trade Union and Human Rights on March 14. They listened to a situationer by members of CTUHR, conducted production shoots, and visited nearby communities and households.
