On September 18, 2023, the relaunching of the Community Extension Program's Community-based Feeding Program took place. This initiative was made possible through a partnership with Barangay Batomelong and Deped Tayo Batomelong Elementary School, under the leadership of Ma'am Malunes, the school Principal, and Ma'am Anady Jalani, a faculty teacher and the Focal person for the feeding program. The relaunching event was attended by ten severely undernourished children between the ages of five and twelve, who are pupils of Batomelong Elementary School, along with their parents and guardians. The activity also integrated the FAITH Project (Food Always In The Home), wherein the ten parents/guardians received seedlings from the Department of Agriculture. The FAITH Project aims to establish a community garden and encourage backyard gardening among the beneficiaries of the Community-based Feeding Program. The signing of the Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) also transpired during the same event..
In light of this, the CFC Community Extension Program wishes to extend its heartfelt gratitude to its partners, especially Batomelong Elementary School, particularly the school Principal, Ma'am Malunes, and the feeding program's focal person and elementary Teacher, Ma'am Anady Jalani, for their acceptance of this partnership and their dedicated efforts towards the program's success. Special thanks also go to Sir Ronelo, the Acting Dean of CSSH, for supporting and initiating the program, as well as to the Social Work Interns for their facilitation and coordination of this activity. Your collective efforts are greatly appreciated, and in pursuit of a shared vision, let us all continue to work diligently to combat malnutrition and create a brighter future for the next generation."
