COUNTRY above self has been the mantra of Chooks-to-Go since entering the local sporting scene back in 2016.
Tuesday morning, the company found numerous partners to support their cause.
During the flag ceremony of the students in Bagong Silangan Elementary School in Quezon City, Chooks-to-Go, together with the Ayala Foundation, signed a pact with the Department of Education to promote the “Maging Magiting” campaign.
The purpose of this campaign is to teach the students the importance of respecting the flag by giving 10,000 schools a new set of flags.
“We are talking about flag activation day today. Mahalaga itong araw na ito. I want everybody to know ang ating Maging Magiting campaign. Sabi nga ng Chooks-to-Go, they are promoting country above self by instilling nationalism through sports which is what we are doing as well,” said DepEd Undersecretary for Legislative Liaison Office, External Partnerships Service and School Sports Tonisito Umali, ESQ.
“I talked to president Ronald [Mascariñas] na yung kampanya nila tungkol sa ginagawa nila ay means of fostering nationalism to promote human total development and accelerate national progress.”
“Nagpapasalamat po kami sa mga partners namin na magbibigay ng watawat sa 10,000 na eskwelahan,” added National Historical Commission Acting Executive Director III Ludovico Badoy. “Bago pa namin simulan ang proyekto na ito sa mga nakakatanda, sinigurado naming simulan ito sa mga kabataan. Alam namin na marami pang darating na mga bayani sa inyo. Ang National Historical Commission ay nandito para ituro ang kahalagahan ng watawat.”
For Chooks-to-Go, being part of the Maging Magiting campaign is another avenue for the company to promote its ideals and mission.
