MANDALUYONG CITY, Philippines – April 6, 2022 

In the Philippines, parents, teachers, and students received life-saving helmet measuring training online, as part of the Safety Delivered program. The online training event, hosted by AIP Foundation saw 195 students, parents, and teachers from our two project schools – Highway Hills Integrated School and Eulogio Rodriguez Integrated School – work excitedly together to learn how to be safer on roads.

Ms. Che Almodiel was present at the online training today marking the fundamental engagement of UPS in The Philippines, in delivering safety to the children of Mandaluyong city. 

A helmet itself is not sufficient to provide full protection. It is of paramount importance that the helmet also fits the wearer correctly. As the students are too young to measure their own heads, parents become a critical part of the training. This was the highlight of this online training, as parents and teachers were trained on how to correctly measure their children’s heads to ensure the helmet’s proper fit. 

Parents and their children had to work together, leading to many laughs as they learned how to be safe together. By ensuring that the helmets fit properly, we are maximizing the protection of each child. This way, when the children receive their helmets we know that our future generations are fully protected from the dangers of the roads.
