“Alagang Paningin, Alagang MR.DIY” Optical Mission brings clarity to CarSiGMA Communities


Gray skies did not deter residents of Silang and General Mariano Alvarez (GMA) Cavite from making their way to Bulihan National High School in Silang for the “Alagang Paningin, Alagang MR.DIY” Optical Mission.

 

The event buzzed with anticipation as 400 adults and 100 children from Silang availed of essential eye care services–a rare opportunity to have their eyes examined to achieve clearer vision.

 

As part of MR.DIY’s overarching CSR program–Acts of Kindness (AOK) –this initiative highlights the company's steadfast dedication to enabling and empowering communities by harnessing the power of goodwill to address healthcare needs, in partnership with the local government units of Carmona, Silang, and GMA (CarSiGMA).
