The Marawi Rehabilitation Program of the Bangsamoro government commenced the distribution of school equipment and office supplies to operational private schools, madaris, and torils previously located in the Most Affected Areas (MAA) of the city.
The distributed items include projector screens, portable speakers, mini speakers, lapel microphones, and industrial stand and wall fans.
Recent beneficiaries include Dansalan College Foundation Inc., Philippines Engineering and Agro-industrial College, Madrasah Fatima Al-Islamie, Dansalan Polytechnic College, Fountain Harvest Islamic Academy, and Jamaitul Philippine Al-Islamia, among others.
Elsie Baterna, an educator from Dansalan College, expressed gratitude to the Bangsamoro government, stating that with the support of the BARMM-Marawi Rehabilitation Program, they can continue providing education to the Meranaw people and thrive despite the difficulties during the Marawi siege.
"We are striving hard to continue the legacy of Dansalan College, even though we have risen from the ashes, we are still fighting to do our best," she said.
Representing the Madaris institutions, Alimoden Ahmad conveyed appreciation for receiving school supplies from the BARMM government, highlighting the significance of this support after 16 years without assistance.
