Volunteers of Project Dagway believe 'students deserve to have a tangible memory of their academic achievement, regardless of their financial situation or location.'
SAMAR, Philippines – A day before graduation day in 2020, Vienna Antonette Orque, 16, moped around with a worried frown on her face. But on graduation day, a group of strangers appeared at the doors of her school in Arteche, a third-class municipality in Eastern Samar. The Borongan Digital Photography Forum, seeing the impact of their service, later formed itself into “Project Dagway” in 2020.
Vienna’s father Anthony, who was also there, taking care of their pre-graduation photos, added his words of gratitude. “The role of DepEd is to identify schools that fall into our criteria, which are schools in remote and poor communities,” Voloso said.This year, members of Project Dagway want to capture around 1,000 photos.
On Saturday, April 22, they were in Maydolong town, taking portraits of 70 students in five remote schools. Aside from the five lensmen, eight other volunteers help with students’ make-up, photo editing, maintaining order during a photoshoot, and other logistics and coordination concerns with schools and beneficiaries.
