Wazzup Pilipinas!
As part of its collaboration with Facebook and in support of the social networking site's internet-for-all advocacy, leading telecommunications company Globe Telecom turned over P100,000 to Bilar National High School to help rebuild the school which was damaged by the recent earthquake and to ensure that the students would have continuous access to technology and internet services.
"Similar to the vision of Facebook Founder Mark Zuckerberg to bring the entire world online, Globe also has an advocacy to make Internet access a reality to more and more Filipinos especially those in the rural areas. For over a decade now, we have been providing internet connection to public elementary and high schools across the country to givethe studentsan opportunity to keep up with what is happening in the rest of the world," said Fernando Esguerra, OIC, Globe Corporate Social Responsibility.
Esguerra said Globe has chosen BNHS to be the recipient of the financial assistance since it houses the Global Filipino School, an ICT center of excellence which Globe turned over to the Department of Education last year. It consists of an ICT laboratory with 24 specialized desktop computers and laptops connected to the internet.
