St. Peter Life Plans donates anew for Botanical Park development

By: Tagum City Information Office

TAGUM CITY—As part of its three-year commitment to assist in the development of the San Agustin Botanical Park, St. Peter Life Plans once again handed-over a cheque amounting to 472, 250 pesos to the City Government of Tagum last July 21, 2014.

Mayor Allan L. Rellon received the cheque from Mr. Jude Tiongco, the Senior Vice President for Operation and head of the Human Resources Office of St. Peter Life Plans, who also checked the progress of their “adopted” site inside the sprawling park located in the rural barangay of San Agustin, some kilometers away from downtown Tagum.

The latest cheque hand-over is part of the three-year environmental partnership amounting to 3.8 million pesos, which will be allocated by the said private firm that will be used for the development of the Botanical Park.

A portion of the said botanical park is named “Soul Trees Forest” in recognition to the local government’s partnership with St. Peter Life Plans, which now enters into its second year.

During the turn-over, the City Environment and Natural Resources Officer headed by its chief Engr. Elias Ragos also presented to the local chief executive and to Mr. Tiongco the recent developments in the Botanical Park as well as the future plans that will be incorporated in the park.

The 50-hectare San Agustin Botanical Park, said to be the showcase of the local government’s greening efforts, is envisioned to be fully-developed by year 2020. | Louie Lapat of CIO Tagum
