Bacolod inmates get books
Bacolod City -- The Masters in Public Administration class of the Carlos Hilado Memorial State College - Talisay Campus, turned over books to Bacolod City Jail-Female Section in Brgy. Handumanan recently.
Rodelin Tolentino, project team manager said, the mini library for the female inmates was a class project of those enrolled in the Project Development and Management subject.
Tolentino said the class was able to solicit 650 books for the mini-library which will benefit 98 inmates.
Tolentino added the project aims to relieve the prisoners from boredom and to encourage reading among those inside the jail.
The class will continue to solicit books to sustain the mini-library. (PIA/cad)
