Impact beyond the screen
Galaxy Campus Batch 3 student ambassadors
teamed-up with PSD learners for a hands-on furniture-making workshop to design
and assemble modular recycled furniture. The teams worked together on creating
their designs on their Galaxy tablets and painted the assembled furniture. The
completed pieces were given as a thoughtful gift to the school, one that
inspires, uplifts, and creates a lasting sense of accomplishment. Together,
ambassadors and learners celebrated this joyful season by creating, learning,
and shaping a brighter future.
Galaxy Campus Batch 3 student ambassadors reflected on the activity. “This is a really fun way to nurture our creativity, as well as giving back to the community,” said Yowni Cueto from the University of the Philippines Los Baños, while Mishka Gotico of Miriam College harped on teamwork: “Even with differing communities, you're still able to shine amidst your differences. I like that we're really able to come together despite such differences.” Nikos Catanus of Iloilo Science and Technology University – Iloilo City Campus added, “The most rewarding part is we slowly understood each other. We bonded even though we're not used to communicating in each other's language. If you really have one goal, even if you don't fully understand each other, you transcend that border.”
Mr. Jordan Madronio, Assistant Principal and Officer-in-Charge of PSD shared, “I was very happy because they said they're [Galaxy Campus student ambassadors] learning sign language at the same time. These activities are very meaningful because they boost our students’ confidence, and our society is becoming more open to acceptance. They’re not just deaf—they’re empowered deaf people. What hearing people can do, they can also do.”
Jun Guevara, SEPCO Head of Corporate Marketing
added, “Our Galaxy Campus student ambassadors are already influential digital
communicators within their own spaces. Through this project of Samsung, we
allow them to create impact beyond what they can do on screen. We reconnect
with a hands-on activity to support an underserved community differently which
makes this more meaningful.”
