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

highlights the company's steadfast dedication to enabling and empowering
communities by harnessing the power of goodwill to address healthcare needs, in
