PADRE GARCIA, BATANGAS – To further imbibe social responsibility and
community service, the Aurotech family spent a day in Aurotech's Gawad
Kalinga Assumption Village last September 21 to revive the spirit of
bayanihan (communal unity).  Employees happily cleaned out weeds and
levelled the soil in front of an on-going construction of a school
building in the GK village.  The participants were further encouraged
to socialize with the residents and play with the children.

The Gawad Kalinga Assumption Village was launched in 2006 by
Aurotech's Chairman, Danilo Dimayuga, and aims to construct 100
houses.  To date, a total of 50 houses have been built and turned-over
to poor families.
