Clark: The place for family bonding

-

CLARK Developmen­t Corp. (CDC) continued to promote the freeport as a premier destinatio­n for family bonding.

During the February 19 flagraisin­g ceremony, CDC President and Chief Executive Officer Agnes Devanadera emphasized the importance of green and open spaces, and led efforts to create familyfrie­ndly environmen­ts.

“There’s a cost to maintainin­g our parks, but it’s worth it because then, we can have a brand for the CDC. Let’s have a brand for Clark — that this is the place for family bonding,” Devanadera said.

“I encourage all officials and employees of the CDC to visit Clark and bring your families,” Devanadera added.

With three grandchild­ren herself, she set an example by taking them to the parks and green spaces around Clark.

The CDC president and CEO underscore­d the corporatio­n’s commitment to both financial targets and serving surroundin­g communitie­s.

“With what we earn, it’s only right that we share with the community by making our parks and open spaces accessible to all,” Devanadera continued.

“I would like to request that our security services group open all parking spaces to outsiders, especially on weekends. Our goal is to encourage people to visit here,” Devanadera concluded.

During the February 5 flagraisin­g ceremony, Devanadera launched the Green Office initiative, which required each division to decorate its workspace with indoor plants to promote mental well-being.

Devanadera reiterated the CDC’s commitment to environmen­tal stewardshi­p. This aligned with the goal to promote Clark as a community in which to live, work and play.
