Information from the Information Center head of the Philippine Information Agency (PIA) in Bukidnon said the project is worth P2.2 million.

It is donated by ANCOP USA (Answering the Cry of the Poor Foundation USA).
It can accommodate 20 students with two bathrooms, two comfort rooms and a room for a house parent.

The dormitory will ease the students’ difficulties in walking three to four hours just to get to school.

This is the second phase of VP Robredo’s project for the said school with members of the Indigenous Peoples as beneficiary.

Last year, Robredo has turned over the Girls Dormitory to the same school in partnership with the Rotary Club of Makati. (Mel B. Madera)
