December 2011 brought joy to Tan Yan Kee Foundation’s beneficiaries in the communities of Balete and Buyasyas in Sta. Fe, Nueva Vizcaya.
The Foundation spearheaded the cementing and blessing of the one-kilometer foot path leading to the Tan Yan Kee Elementary School in Barangay Balete, serving some 135pupils, six teachers, and around 500 community residents. This was done in cooperation with the Department of Education, the LGU Council of Brgy. Balete, and Fo Guang Shan/IBPS, Manila. The blessing was officiated by the Venerable Miao Jing of Fo Guang Shan in a traditional practice of Chinese-style chanting for newly built infrastructure.
