Bago Gallera was a beehive of activity last April 27 as the barangay conducted its ‘Operation Tuli’ project as part of their 19th Araw ng Bago Gallera celebration, an undertaking supported by Camella Davao with a feeding program in partnership with the Villar Foundation.
About 90 children were served by the ‘Operation Tuli’ project where 30 midwives, nurses and barangay volunteers, as well as Head of Brgy. Council for Women Josefina A. Lu, were assisted by staff of Camella Davao and the Villar Foundation.
The feeding activity is a program of Cong. Cynthia A. Villar’s ‘Caravan Kalusugan’ in Davao City, implemented by the Villar Foundation where the congresswoman sits as managing director. The foundation provides assistance to communities recommended by Camella Davao.
Camella has been a consistent supporter of Barangay Bago Gallera, giving aid to its events and activities as its host community. The help is putting into action the real estate company’s corporate social responsibility in communities where their developments are located. Its Italian-inspired development, Toscana, is located in the barangay.
The operation tuli was led by Kagawad Walter P. Paler under the leadership of Brgy. Captain Leo T. Candones.
