RSU's UNICESS Program Returns to Puro Island for Another Meaningful Causeย ย
Januart 14,ย 2025 - RSU's University Community Engagement through Sustainable Services (UNICESS) welcomed 2025 with a meaningful outreach mission to Puro Island, Sta. Fe, Romblon. Despite challenging weather, RSU officials and staff, led by University President Dr. Merian P. Catajay-Mani and Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Emelyn F. Montoya, braved the journey to serve the remote island community.
In partnership with RSU Sta. Fe Campus with Director Dr. Ray P. Rasgo and St. Isidore the Worker Parish with Rev. Fr. Joven Rodaje, the team distributed food packs, pre-loved clothes, footwear, and school supplies to around 100 residents. Donations came from RSU's December 2024 Sustainable Giving Campaign by the International Relations Office, supported by NSTP, and proceeds from the Office of Media and Public Affairs' Lights Fest campaign.
This outreach not only delivered essential goods but also brought hope, strength, and reassurance to the community, a testament to RSU's commitment to making a lasting impact on communities.
