In the COVID-19 fight, we are all in this together.
That is no more evident than in the fierce enemies of the Ateneo de Manila University and De La Salle University, which have now joined forces in the ongoing COVID-19 crisis.
Now that Metro Manila has been in community quarantine for over a month, both the Society of Jesus School in Katipunan and the university run by Lasallian brothers on Taft Avenue have done their best to help.
“Athenaeum alumni said they would like to help and I said, ‘We are going to raise money together with our friends, which means, also friends of La Salle,'” the Jesuit Provincial Superior of the Philippines, p. Jun Viray, said SJ.
With that, an effort was born for archrivals to join hands called “Let’s work together to fight against COVID-19”.
“A small conversation between me and Father Jun created a spark that is more explosive than UAAP allowed us to say that this is the time to work together rather than compete,” said DLSU President Bro. Armin Luistro said the FSC.
Currently, the effort has already raised PhP 10 million.
This will be used to help 6,000 urban poor families, as well as 500 homeless people.
