WHAT DIFFERENCE CAN YOU MAKE?


     Our world today is a fast paced environment from food, technology, communication, relationship and yes even our mother nature turn to be fast paced in its destruction,if all of us will not care that much and our only concern is how to make more money. What will happen to our mother earth?
    When Ms Mary Ann Cua Finance Officer and Vice President of Tasco,Inc. stood and take the stage that powerful message echo "what difference can you make?".
    Everyone of us has its own share of social responsibility may it be financial independence to help the marginalized of our society or be it for environment we are called to be a good steward since the day that we were born on this planet earth. 
    Are you the good steward or  the one that destroy the environment that was entrusted to you?. The answer is yours to fulfill, the time is now. One of my vision is that one day every organization, company, institution will join together to build the new paradise. How? One of my dream project is clean up drive for our rivers; like the Pasig River Barangay officials will oblige every families and individuals in their area to help in cleaning the Pasig River and together they will partner with private companies especially those manufacturing companies to sponsor the clean up drive. Every solid waste wrapper for example of one brand that was thrown to Pasig River has the obligation to help in this clean up drive. 
    Tasco,Inc. Tire Art contest is one of the beginning let us all hand in hand joined together to build a better future for our environment for our  young generations and future leaders.
