iACADEMY Students Host A Concert For A Cause

For iACADEMY students, a little bit does indeed go a long way—especially when it comes to saving the environment. 

Entitled OPLAN BNB, students of iACADEMY hosted a concert with the intent of contributing towards the global effort to save the environment.

 “We want to make it easy for the students and the school community to become part of this concerted effort to preserve the environment; and it starts with something as simple as providing the school with ample garbage bins for segregation,” explains Mitch Andaya, iACADEMY’s Vice President for Academics. “It’s simple, yet it will go a long way towards preventing littering, encouraging people to recycle and generally educating people on the simple things they can do to make a difference for our environment.”

 With this goal in mind, the students tapped into their inherent musical talents to perform alongside two of this country’s most prominent rock acts—Lions and Acrobats and Mayonnaise. 

“We really love performing for a good cause, we’ve done Haiyan shows, we’ve played for Amnesty International and other advocacy oriented orgs and it’s a great honor to add another show of the sort in our resume. Also, it was a humbling experience from our end to perform in a really cool college that have people who are just like us and get that kind of response,” shares Lorenzo Rapadas of Lions and Acrobats. 

The student-led initiative addresses the need for today’s youth to be more 

involved and proactive towards environmental concerns. 

“Through this simple effort, we hope to encourage fellow students to be more mindful about the little things they can do to help create a bigger impact for nature,” ends Trixie Sanchez, class lead coordinator.
