GDM Lodge 853 donates computers, school supplies to A1ES

Gen. Douglas MacArthur Lodge 853 from Sacramento, California, donated two complete sets of computers, 400 pieces of school bags with school supplies, 200 pairs of slippers and snacks to Abar 1st Elementary School on January 21, 2020 at Abar 1st ES, San Jose City to support the Brigada Eskwela 2020 and pupils’ education and learning.

“Access to computers such as ability to view, share or print a specific file and knowing how to use the computer is essential for effective education, especially when it is done hands-on or through practical,” Worshipful Master Gen. Douglas MacArthur Lodge 853 Robert Bondoc said.

With a clear vision, he said the education and well-being of the students are their utmost concern why they are helping the schools.

“You know we have to hands, one is for your greatness to help you own self and the second one is delegated to help others” he added.

In attendance during the turnover ceremony on Tuesday were Dr. Ruth B. Dela Cruz, Principal II of A1ES; School’s President of Teachers Association Veronica Cabatit; teachers and staffs and Gen. Douglas MacArthur Lodge 853 mason members.

“I am thanking them for their generosity and we really appreciate their organization’s donation. It is also a great pleasure to us here in the school because we are graced by these blessings. This will help our pupils a lot when it comes to ICT and their support helps to further our mission as educators,” Dr. Dela Cruz said.

The said charity organization marked its 10th year anniversary on May 30, 2020 and still thinking of ways to help the school someday.

It is also the goal of their organization to take good care of their charity and make it better and building a strong moral character in its members.
