Los Baños,
Laguna—The leading cake house in Laguna and now making a name nationwide for
its famous chocolate cakes and rolls, Mernels, is always in different civic
activities especially if it’s all about giving for the children.
When the

clubs under her jurisdiction, it’s a staple, the different leading brands such
as Mernels with its CEO Merle Balicao with the help and assistance of Ronald

kids from 5 year olds to 13. They were given with vitamins and advised the
parents on their kids conditions.

Then and
till now, the company, Mernels carried the task to share blessings with
responsibility to convey message of love, humility and being grateful and to be
involved in humanitarian works is not easy especially in these trying times
where all are still pivoting and surviving after the global health crisis.
The Los
Baños Community Center, Center for therapy, intervention and support is a
private organization but situated in the building from the local government.
They received grants from Canada and private institutions. Kiwanis
International is a non government organization that’s focuses on the children
and aims to help the indigent kids in one community at a time. According to reports,
Kiwanis International in average conducted 150,000 service projects yearly
globally.
At present,
the major root of Mernels Corporate Social Responsibility program
(#malasakitsakapwa) is to provide more employment and opportunities while also
assisting in the alleviation of poverty in the community as its one Value.
MerNel's ambitions came true as matters fell into place with the right
combination of hard work, dedication, sacrifices, and prayers. However, success
is not an accident; it is a decision. There is no such thing as an overnight
success, every success and glory are non-accidental but rather intentional.
