Painting Houses... Painting Lives...

Peachie Dioquino

In efforts of BayaniJuan sa Calauan and Kapit Bisig para sa Ilog Pasig to rebuild the lives of the Pasig River relocatees now residing in Calauan, Laguna; Boysen (Pacific Paint Philippines, Inc.) extended its support for ABS-CBN Foundation, Inc. by providing primers and paints for the houses built where relocatees will live.

Volunteers and residents happily brushed the first set of paints on the walls and ceilings of the houses during the press launch of BayaniJuan sa Calauan – indeed bayanihan at its finest. Boysen also donated covered pails to serve as containers for primer and paints.

Boysen Vice-President Johnson Ongking along with his family and a paint specialist educated the volunteers about proper paint methods. Ongking and his team witnessed that their donation has brought joy to people. The BNJ relocatees were touched as AFI and Habitat for Humanity painted their houses.

This year, BOYSEN aims to supply AFI paints & primers for the completion of the first 1,000 houses.
