Most pupils of Marabut Central Elementary School
in Barangay Armantillo, Marabut- a town in Samar are from marginalized families. They come to school even on empty stomachs because of the belief that only education can change the course of their lives. Their parents hope for them to learn the three Rs-reading, (w)writing, and (a)arithmetic. Former pupils however, had very little hope because when the school was built and established, it did not include a library which is a store house of knowledge and is linked with development of reading skills. Library Improvement Project
Need to improve or rehabilitate the library was
seen as a priority by Programa Genio since this is aligned with the efforts at improving reading skills and developing love for reading, one of its soft programs. More than 10,000 Marawi affected families helped by Operation Sagip.
As the ongoing armed conflict in Marawi displaced
thousands of individuals, Operation Sagip of ABS-CBN Lingkod Kapamilya Foundation immediately started its relief operations to provide immediate help to the affected families. Operation Sagip continues its relief operations and it hopes to render aid to more families. The program also plans to create rehabilitation projects in the form of construction a classroom for children and youth who are affected by the conflict. Help for Surigao Quake Victims Continues

On the other hand, 470 students in Caniogan Elementary School received the backpacks with school kits.
