On May 31, 2026, CBA CARES had the privilege of collaborating with JPIA CARES for Project Kalinga at the Missionaries of the Poor – Little Lamb Center.

Last May 30, 2025, CBA CARES conducted a Coastal Clean-Up Drive in Dumlog, Talisay City—reminding us that even small actions can create a big impact on our environment.

As we look back on this meaningful activity, we are reminded that service goes beyond a single day—it is a continuous commitment.

Together, let us keep caring, serving, and making a difference. 💛🌊

Last May 15, 2026, we successfully conducted a meaningful and informative seminar focusing on two essential areas in the business field, Bookkeeping and Business Ethics.

The morning session centered on Bookkeeping, where participants were able to gain valuable knowledge about proper financial recording, organization of accounts, and the importance of accuracy and accountability in handling financial information. The discussion provided practical insights that will surely help students and future professionals strengthen their understanding of the fundamentals of business and accounting.

In the afternoon, the seminar continued with a discussion about Business Ethics, highlighting the importance of integrity, professionalism, responsibility, and ethical decision-making in the workplace and in business practices. The session reminded everyone that success is not only measured by profit and achievements, but also by the values and principles we uphold as future professionals.

This seminar became more than just a learning experience, it served as an opportunity for our beneficiaries to broaden their perspectives, develop professional awareness, and appreciate the importance of combining knowledge with good character.

CBA CARES IS HERE!

Last March 27, 2026, UCnians witnessed a day filled with purpose, passion, and impact during the 1st SPARK Volunteerism and Advocacy Exhibit 2026. 🌱

The event brought together different organizations and CARES departments, opening doors for students to discover advocacies, connect with inspiring groups, and explore opportunities to serve the community.

It was more than just an exhibit—it was a space where students were encouraged to step forward, get involved, and become part of something bigger than themselves.

✨ And with CBA CARES joining the movement, the commitment to service continues beyond that day.

💡 The spark has been lit—now it’s your turn to keep it burning.

You Care, We Care, CBA CARES!
