Good Sight = Good Education

After several screenings to determine their vision correction needs, new set of SFAS teachers ( Ms. Yvette Jaranilla , Ms. Louren Purisima, Sir Jomar Eguid, Ms. Luzel Estrobo, Ms. Catrina Deriada and Ms. Cindy Dumdumaya ) and students (Miguel Lavilla, Ajay Gonzales, Nicole Monge, Reymart Navarette and Justine Duyo)  were given FREE EYEGLASSES this school year 2012-2013. This has been a project of the Tapulanga Foundation for many years already to provide a better sight to those who need it the most.

Since it started, the program has seen that providing eyeglasses to the students did not only make them see better but had other good effects such as boosting their self – confidence, increasing their class participation and better performance in school.

“By the time my eyeglass was given to me, I was very happy. It is because it helped me a lot. I am very thankful because I can now see writings clearly." - Justine Duyo , Grade 9 student 

“The eyeglass has been very helpful to me especially in my studies. I could clearly read now the writings on the board even if it is far. I am very happy and thankful for it. “ – Miguel Lavilla, Grade 9 student

“Thank you for the eyeglass because I can see things far from me. Thank you also for the school for helping me with my eye problem.” – Ajay Gonzales, Grade 5 student

“I am very thankful that in this institution, not only is the education of the children their concern but also the teachers, especially for those of us who have difficulty in reading and seeing things clearly. Thank you for my eyeglass. “ – Ms. Catrina Deriada , Grade 4 Adviser 

“Thank you for the Tapulanga Foundation because they have given me an eyeglass which I can use everyday especially when I am doing paper works.” -  Ms. Louren Purisima, Science & Social Studies Teacher
