On the 20th of January, the Jose Rizal University - Junior High School (JRU-JHS) Division, held an outreach program at

Barangay Bagong Silang Learning Center to help jumpstart a soap-manufacturing business for families that will flourish and become a source of income for the nearby locals.

Mrs. Grace Marie B. Martin, the Junior High School principal, gave the opening remarks, where she discussed providing a sustainable business for the selected families that was expected to thrive and create opportunities for more people.

First, the beneficiaries of the program received a bag of the ingredients necessary to craft a dishwashing soap.

Then, the faculty demonstrated the process of creating the soap.

Lastly, they will create their first batch of soap and they may sell it to help them earn money.

To expedite the process, JHS class representatives, faculty, and volunteer residents aided in mixing the soap ingredients.

As part of the closing remarks, the families expressed their gratitude to the people and local bodies that made this possible.

The university vowed to offer assistance to ensure that the business remains profitable whenever it is needed.
