Real and in cooperation with the Tagbilaran LGU headed by Mayor Jane Yap and supported by philanthropist Dalareich Polot & Brgy. San Isidro officials at the Sipupa 2, Brgy. San Isidro of Tagbilaran City.

Around 150 children- beneficiaries of the said barangay were given access to books and assorted reading materials. Making the activity more fulfilling was the free lugaw (Libreng Lugaw ni Manang Hepe) given to all the participants.

The launching of Project REAL highlighted the culmination of the nationwide 27th PNP Police Community Relations (PCR) Month last July 27, 2022 held at the Plaza Rizal.

Barely a month after its launching, the project has created a buzz among netizens because of its timeliness, relevance and innovation. 

It has also merited the approval of the City Mayor because it coincides with her focus and thrust on education especially among the city’s marginalized children.

At the same time, the Bureau of Fire Protection has also been a tremendous ally in the said activity as its crew has been actively teaching young citizens on Fire Safety.
