DMI Medical Supply Incorporated and Habitat for Humanity Philippines begin the construction of three multi-purpose centers in Panabo Central Elementary School in Davao del Norte.

The facility will be used for Special Education (Sped) classes and as a venue for student value formation programs, and livelihood training programs for parents and school staff.

Panabo Central Elementary School is the second home to over 2,000 students and 74 teachers and staff.

"We would like to thank DMI Medical Supply, Inc. and Habitat Philippines for choosing us to receive this gift. We commit that this place will be filled with learning, laughter and good memories for our students," Rosemarie Patriarca, principal of Panabo Central Elementary School, said.

The Habitat for Humanity Philippines partnership with DMI Medical Supply covers the building of 10 multi-purpose centers across Davao.

"Seeing the warmth and excitement of the employees and students of Panabo, I feel that they have given us a most valuable gift. We are eager to partner with Habitat Philippines to build stronger communities in our region," Dr. Melanie Arcillas, executive director of DMI Medical Supply, said. (PR)
