Chevron Philippines Inc. (CPI) Policy, Gov’t and Public Affairs Manager Raissa Bautista, Assistant Manager Joel Gaviola, and American Chamber Foundation Project Manager Daisy Palor receive a Gold Anvil Award for Caltex Fuel Your School Bicol. The project has helped bring modern teaching tools to thousands of high school teachers and students in Bicol’s highest-need public high schools.
Around August of last year, Caltex Philippines, through its regional distributor in the Bicol region, Southern Cross Distribution Inc., embarked on a project dubbed Caltex Fuel Your School—Bicol. The endeavor sought to raise funds to help some of the highest need public high schools in the Bicol region.
Apart from enriching the lives and education of some 42,955 students and 1,567 teachers, the campaign has been recognized by no less than the Public Relations Society of the Philippines. The PRSP has bestowed the Gold Anvil Award on Caltex for its efforts.
Through an innovative fuel-to-donate scheme, motorists were able to donate around P3 million to fund learning enhancement programs for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) by simply filling up on Caltex fuels. This fund was then used to purchase LED projectors, laptoos, tablets, lab equipment, microscopes, calculators, and the like.
The said equipment was used to help enhance learning by making it more interactive and interesting. With this, Caltex hopes to entice more students to learn and have a better shot at a bright future.
And this is what the Caltex Fuel Your School program has been all about. Its other counterparts in various parts of the country have also received Anvil Awards from the PRSP. But beyond the recognitions, Caltex is proud that it has helped and continues to help those deserving students who, despite their circumstances, can have a better shot at life.
