I have worked in a school tha has been here since 1959..maybe you're imagining that I'm referring to a big university, no I'm not, in fact, our population from Kindergarten to college barely reach 1,000. The school is sustained by our diocese, by the bishop, you might wondered how it survived through the years with such meager income from its population. Yesterday, the administration and staff of the school through our community outreach program handed out fifty (50) packs of assorted school supplies (pens,pencils, papers, notebooks, crayons, rulers, etc) to fifty most indigent children in one of the poor communities in the locality. I am relating this to you because I want to share my feelings of pride and humility to have been a part of this wonderful organization. I had been connected with bigger universities in the past but only here, at Colegio de Santa Catalina de Alejandria (COSCA) I have a truly learned an amazing experience of helping out others who literally have nothing.

It is good to hear about sharing and making things a little better for others. Any action intended to help others will surely gain much momentum and benefit will accumulate. Congratulations.
