THEY came, they sawed, they hammered.

While the city of Iloilo became quiet right after Christmas day, 26 young men made worthwhile noise in Bacauan-Mambatad Elementary School (BMES) in Miagao, Iloilo from Dec. 26 to 30, 2006. They volunteered for a project known as the annual Christmas Work Camp. The volunteers constructed the ceiling for the school canteen, taught remedial classes to some pupils, and facilitated a medical-dental mission.
