Alhamdulillah! Another blessing has come to Basilan’s education sector as the Department of Labor and Employment Region IX represented by Marlyn Anoos through the TUPAD program. This is spearheaded and an initiative of Hon. Congressman Yusop T. Alano allocates nearly ₱6 million in support of this year’s Brigada Eskwela. A total of 515 beneficiaries will receive allowances under the TUPAD- EASE Program of Basilan, empowering them to actively take part in preparing schools for the upcoming academic year.
These beneficiaries will serve as a brigade of helpers—repairing, painting, cleaning, and revitalizing classrooms and school grounds—ensuring that our learning spaces are safe, welcoming, and ready for our learners.
This meaningful partnership symbolizes transformation—like caterpillars preparing to take flight—reflecting our collective commitment to quality education. With unity and shared purpose, our schools will be ready to warmly welcome learners on June 28, the first day of classes.
One team, one dream, one Basilan 💜💜💜
