WASH AND SAVE THIS SUMMER WITH LG’s WASHER AND DRYER TECHNOLOGY

  Summer is a time for fun in the sun, but it also means more laundry. Whether it's sandy beach towels or sweaty workout clothes, a reliable washing machine is a must-have for any household. If you're in the look out for a new washing machine, here are four features to consider before making your purchase.   Capacity - The capacity of a washing machine refers to the amount of laundry it can hold in one cycle. If you have a large family or regularly wash bulky items like comforters or pillows, a washing machine with a larger capacity is a must-have. However, if you live by yourself or have limited space, a smaller capacity washing machine may be more practical. LG’s washing machines are designed to carry large loads in a very compact chassis, perfect even in tight spaces.   Energy Efficiency - Energy-efficient washing machines are not only better for the environment, but they can also save you money on your energy bill. Look for washing machines with an Energy Star rating, which

SM Scholar Alumna pursues a career in SPED

  Teaching surpasses the realms of jobs or professions–it encompasses service, vocation, and life mission.  Proving this day and night are millions of Filipino teachers who stand as second mothers to students.

With much dedication and determination to have the right skills for her students, she pursued graduate studies in special education and Filipino sign language at the Philippine National University and De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde, respectively.  She currently teaches at the P

Gaining solid ground through education

Stability is the foundation of a well-lived life. With basic needs fulfilled, people have the opportunity to develop themselves, explore various facets of life, and contribute to the welfare of the community. When aspiring youth, especially those from low-income households, are given the chance to stand on solid ground, they readily take the chance. They utilize it as a seedbed where they can cultivate their dreams and aspirations. One testament to this is SM scholar alumna Jonnah Jane Sacamay, who grew up in a family where stability seemed like an uncharted territory. Years back, Jonnah’s family’s main source of living was flower farming. This made them walk on a thin line as the demand for flowers was seasonal, and they were also often affected by unpredictable weather disturbances.  But while they had journeyed through life with uncertainty, they had always planted in her mind the power of education. “Given that the nature of farming is very seasonal, our income is not stable.
