Several SIU members from the USNS Stockham recently volunteered to pitch in with refurbishment of a local elementary school in Subic Bay, Philippines.
Chief Steward Emmanuel Zephyr said he and other Seafarers along with other volunteers helped with repairs and painting at Tapinak Elementary School. Other SIU members who couldn’t make it to the school still aided the cause by helping provide lunch for everyone participating in the philanthropic endeavor.
Joining Zephyr for the project were fellow Seafarers ACU Yahya Munassar, ACU Frakhruddin Malahi, ACU Saleh Sewileh, SA Hayel Omer, SA Ali Y. Mohamed and SA Abdulgabar Ahmed.
The Stockham is operated by Keystone for the U.S. Military Sealift Command. The 906-foot vessel is part of MSC’s prepositioning fleet.
