The Philippines.- The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) has funded a two-storey, six-classroom building for school children in Tarlac.

Mayor Freddie Domingo said: “We extend our heartfelt gratitude to PAGCOR for their invaluable support in funding the construction of a new classroom facility in Pura. This generous contribution not only enhances our educational infrastructure but also empowers the future of our students,” the mayor said. “PAGCOR’s commitment to education is truly making a lasting impact on our community. Thank you for investing in the growth and development of Pura.”
