JCI Mandaue’s biggest milestone and first infrastructure project since its inception is to build learning-conducive Community Daycare Center in (8) eight different communities in Mandaue City to inspire children at a young age that education is a ladder to success that will guide them in building ambitions for themselves. The project is also a mechanism to minimize and/or pull out these children from the hazardous environment of the streets and eventually reach out to their respective families and help them build a better future together. The project aims build a Community Daycare Center with the necessary support, materials and facility needed to operate under the standard manual for Daycare Centers in the Philippines. The Community Daycare Center will serve as a highly visible public symbol of our commitments to (1) community development and (2) sustainable projects in Mandaue City.
