On July 13, the school inaugurated its “Xiaomi-Powered Room,” equipped with the latest Xiaomi devices to enhance students’ learning experiences in the coming school year. The donated items include Xiaomi TV A Pro units, Smart Cameras, Standing Fans, and Vacuum Cleaners. Additionally, Xiaomi provided school supplies, backpacks, and classroom chairs.

Beyond donating essential devices and supplies, representatives from Xiaomi and World Vision volunteered to help fix and maintain the school’s classrooms for the new academic year. Xiaomi employees and members of the Xiaomi Fan Community painted walls, ceilings, and doors, cleaned the schoolyard, and performed other renovation tasks.

This year marks Xiaomi’s first time sending volunteers to participate in Brigada Eskwela, following years of donating supplies to schools in need.

“We are extremely grateful to Xiaomi Philippines for the help they have extended to our school. Through the devices and electronics they have donated, our schoolchildren’s learning needs were addressed, allowing them to have better experiences in class,” said Marilou O. Solis, head teacher.

“At Xiaomi, it has always been our mission to provide innovations for everyone, and this is a wonderful opportunity for our local employees to engage with the community and see how we can help further. With this initiative, we are happy to help build a better and safer space for kids to learn in school,” said Tomi Adrias, Xiaomi Philippines Head of Marketing.

“Filipino children need all the support they can get in school and in life, and we at World Vision thank Xiaomi so much for their program. The supplies the children will use in school will greatly help give each of them a chance and let them know we prioritize their education. We pray the company can help even more schools and children across the country with their technology,” said Michael Macabasag, area program officer for World Vision.

Xiaomi’s participation in Brigada Eskwela exemplifies the brand’s core values of sincerity and passion, driving efforts that contribute to the betterment of society.
