JLo Big Heart Foundation provided Ocampo National High School (ONHS) with a new classroom building, which was publicly inaugurated in the groundbreaking ceremony on August 22, 2026.
Jeremy S. Lo said that this project will lessen ONHS's classroom shortage, which is the main cause of shifting class schedule, the project marks the beginning of a new space where students can learn without disturbance.
During the program, the founder of the organization, Jeremie S. Lo, explained that the institution's goal is to uplift underprivileged families and communities in the Bicol region through health, nutrition, educational support, and disaster relief operations.
The JLo Big Heart Foundation's executive director, Mariefe Maralit, said that they are there not simply to extend assistance, but to share a piece of their hearts.
Maralit understood that as student enrollment continuously increases, the need for a safe and comfortable learning environment also grows.
She believed that the program is not merely a bonding activity, but a reflection that when different organizations work as one, they can create meaningful change in someone's life.
"This classroom is not just about four walls, a roof, or a new building; we hope this will become a place where children can learn with confidence, where teachers can teach more effectively, and where dreams can be made.", she added.
According to her, this project is their way of showing her gratitude toward the teachers.
"A big change starts from one small act of generosity," she said.
