Some 250 primary and secondary school children from a Myanmar village were beneficiaries of our colleagues’ CSR efforts.
Surbana Jurong and SMEC colleagues in Myanmar jointly organised a corporate social responsibility campaign to raise awareness of personal hygiene among some 250 primary and secondary school children in Pann Pyo Lat Monastic Education School in Kyauktan, a village between Yangon and Bago.
The children were taught the importance of hand hygiene and how to wash their hands properly, based on WHO guidelines.

The volunteers also donated generously for the construction of a washroom and steel water tank for the school. They also treated the children to meals and prepared for them goodie bags containing hygiene kits, tidbits and school supplies.
