Skil, one of the most recognized American brands in the power tool industry, yesterday turned over its 14th basketball half-court in Brgy. 22 in Davao City as part of its grassroots initiative Paint the Town Red. The campaign underscores Skil’s commitment to giving back to the Philippine community through projects aimed at community building and youth development.
At the ribbon-cutting ceremony in Davao, Bosch & Skil Marketing Manager, Martin Valenzuela and BOSCH & SKIL Marketing Officer Ma. Luisa Faller delivered special messages to over 100 barangay residents and guests in attendance. Representatives from JH Hardware Co. and BOSCH Sales and Marketing Team were also onsite to turnover the half-court and power tools to the barangay officials.
Skil’s Paint the Town Red campaign aims to construct 40 basketball half-courts in selected municipalities nationwide. Apart from providing Filipino communities new facilities, Skil also donated power tools to members of the barangay and conducted a hands-on training workshop for participants who wanted to learn how to use power tools for various livelihood projects. The skills training activity is part of the company’s initiative to uplift the Philippine society and contribute to the evolving economy.
