Palm Concepcion Power Corporation (PCPC) recently celebrated its 8th anniversary with an event that underscored the company’s dedication to both community development and environmental stewardship. The celebration, held at the power plant’s site, included a ceremonial tree planting activity, which was attended by PCPC’s Bright Scholars—an inspiring group of students supported through the company’s scholarship program.
PCPC’s Bright Scholarship program, run in collaboration with the Joy~Nostalg Foundation, aims to empower students in Concepcion and nearby areas by providing financial assistance and support for their educational needs.
Currently, ten scholars benefit from the program, which represents PCPC’s commitment to fostering future leaders in the community. By involving its scholars in the tree-planting ceremony, PCPC encourages environmental responsibility and community engagement among the youth.
The ceremonial tree planting not only symbolizes PCPC’s commitment to environmental sustainability but also forms part of the company’s broader social development initiatives. Alongside education, PCPC focuses on health, capacity-building, and community welfare through various programs. These initiatives reflect PCPC’s dedication to building a brighter future for Concepcion by supporting education and promoting sustainable practices.
As PCPC continues to balance coal-fired energy production with expanding solar power projects, its commitment to environmental sustainability remains at the forefront. The anniversary celebration with its Bright Scholars reaffirms the company’s role as a responsible energy provider that prioritizes sustainable growth and community development.
Through initiatives like the Bright Scholarship program, PCPC continues to make a meaningful impact on the lives of students and their families, not only lighting up homes but also empowering local youth to contribute to a brighter, more sustainable future.
