The Office of the Vice President (OVP) has distributed what it calls “PagbaBAGo Bags” to more than 2,400 students from various schools in the provinces of Camarines Norte and Pangasinan.
In separate Facebook posts made by the OVP on Thursday, October 30, photos showed the team handing out bags to students of Rabon Elementary School in San Fabian, Pangasinan.
“Umabot sa 450 learners mula sa paaralan ang nakatanggap ng PagbaBAGo Bags na naglalaman ng iba’t ibang school supplies, kapote, at dental kits,” the caption read.
Earlier, the OVP also reported on Wednesday, October 28, that it had conducted a similar distribution activity across several elementary schools in Camarines Norte.
“Sa pamamagitan ng OVP – Bicol Satellite Office, umabot sa mahigit 2,000 na mga mag-aaral mula sa 21 na mga paaralan ang nabigyan ng OVP PagbaBAGo Bags na naglalaman ng school supplies at dental kits,” it said.
According to the OVP, the distribution of the PagbaBAGo Bags is part of its flagship program Ang PagbaBAGo: A Million Learners Campaign, which aims to provide school supplies and dental kits to students, particularly those in remote communities across the country.
