This year’s support to the Department of Education’s (DepEd) Brigada Eskwela in schools within Naga City is part of the Metropolitan Naga Water District’s (MNWD) corporate social responsibility. This year’s theme “Isang DepEd, Isang Pamayanan, Isang Bayanihan. Para sa Handa at Ligtas na Paaralan” is similar to the MNWD’s constant call for community involvement toward holistic development.

The objective of this outreach thru Brigada Eskwela was to help lessen the expenses of schools for the repair of their water pipelines. Ensuring that water coming out of the school faucets is clean and free from contaminants brought about by leaking and/or worn-out pipes will prevent water-borne diseases.

Another aim of the activity was to engage stakeholders to the MNWD’s programs and address government’s calling to make initiatives for society’s development.

MNWD personnel attended the Brigada Eskwela kick-off on May 15 and from the 15th to the 20th of May, the MNWD plumbers helped repair defective water service lines and gave (2) customized water dispensers to eleven (11) beneficiary schools, namely, Abcede Elementary School, Triangulo Elementary School, Julian B. Meliton Elementary School, Sabang Elementary School, Tinago Elementary School, Sta Cruz Elementary School, Mabulo Elementary School, Del Rosario Elementary School, Tinago National High School, Naga City School of Arts and Trades, Concepcion Pequena National High School, and Del Rosario Elementary School. Camarines Sur National High School was an additional beneficiary who enjoyed free plumbing services from the water district.

The MNWD continues to find ways to give more value added services to the community it serves not only thru quality customer care but also thru its many awareness and conservation programs.
