On March 9, 2025, Tzu Chi Pampanga hosted its 7th Humanities Class for the 2024-2025 academic year, bringing together 35 scholars, 5 volunteers, and 3 staff members from Manila for an insightful discussion on Disaster and Emergency Preparedness, focusing specifically on typhoon preparedness.

Tzu Chi Pampanga invited Mr. Rogelio G. Isip, MAEd, Director of Safety and Security and Chairperson of the University Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Unit (UDRRMU) at Pampanga State Agricultural University. His extensive knowledge of disaster preparedness, particularly regarding typhoons and emergency situations, will provide invaluable insights to scholars. His experience will equip them with practical tools and strategies to safeguard themselves and their communities during times of crisis. We believe that his presentation will not only raise awareness about the importance of being prepared but also inspire our scholars to proactively promote safety and resilience in their lives and communities.

The emcee scholars organized an engaging activity to encourage their co-scholars to apply critical thinking and come up with effective strategies for coping with and responding to a disaster. The activity, titled 'Ready, Set, Design: A Disaster Preparedness Infographic Activity.'

Through the volunteers' shared efforts, the scholars were able to enjoy a delightful lunch together, as the volunteers thoughtfully prepared a delicious meal for everyone. They warmly served dishes like Adobong Egg, Potato and Carrots Curry, and Fried Vegetable Lumpia, ensuring that each scholar not only had a satisfying meal but also experienced the warmth and camaraderie of the gathering. The volunteers' dedication made the meal a heartwarming and memorable part of the event.
