Inspired by their first experience, the De La Salle University Medical Center employees who went to Bagac, Bataan for an immersion activity on October 3-5, 2008, returned to the same community on December 20, 2008. This time, they came for a Medical Mission and were joined by DLSUMC doctors and nurses. Boxes of medicines and vitamins and toys for children, that were donated by the DLSUMC and the volunteers were also distributed to the community.
Organized by the Lasallian Formation and Social Action Office, the outreach activity is a spin off of the “Option for the Poor – A Lasallian Tradition” formation module which challenged the participants to actualize the Lasallian tradition of upholding the preferential option for the poor.
The community in Bagac, Bataan is sponsored by the Lasallian Volunteer Program where volunteers from various Lasallian communities in the Philippines serve for at least a year to live out and witness to their Lasallian mission.
