On November 6, 2025, the quiet community of Brgy. Talaba III was filled with laughter and excitement as the event “Little Bodies, Big Care” came to life. The program gathered both kids and adults for a day focused on health, learning, and community care.
Volunteers from the Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy program warmly welcomed the participants, offering free health check-ups, medicine guidance, and fun educational activities about proper hygiene and nutrition. The children enjoyed interactive games and storytelling sessions that taught them the importance of taking care of their growing bodies, while adults received useful tips on maintaining family wellness.
The event became more than just a health outreach it was a heartwarming day of connection, compassion, and service. Through simple acts of care, the volunteers showed that even small efforts can make a big difference in building a healthier community.
