On Tuesday, she helped renovate classrooms at the Wawa Elementary School in Navotas City as part of the Brigada Eskwela program of the Department of Education (DepEd).

She enjoyed painting the walls of a classroom (in front of cameras) so much that she decided to launch her own classroom-painting program. Nationwide.

She’s calling it ‘Kulay-Buhay Program,’ mimicking her other advocacy, ‘Angat-Buhay.’

The Office of the Vice President is seeking volunteers to join Robredo in a year-round program of painting public schools across the country. No skills or experience necessary.

Well, that’s assuming of course that she is still the Vice President During that coming period.

To sign up, please contact the Office of the Vice President.
