Metro Manila and Region IV CSC Chairperson Karlo Nograles expressed his gratitude toward other government agencies who joined the said event and emphasized that the anniversary is not just for the CSC but for the 1.9 million government workforce nationwide.

"Sa Plant-Run po na ito natin makikita na tayong mga civil servants, isinasabuhay natin ang lagi nating sinusumpa tuwing Panunumpa ng Katapatan sa Watawat at Panunumpa ng Lingkod Bayan - ang pagiging maka-kalikasan (In this Plant-Run initiative, we civil servants can see that we are living up to what we always pledge during the Oath of Allegiance to the Flag and Oath of Public Service - our commitment to environmental stewardship)," Nograles said in a statement on Monday, Sept. 18.

Nograles also conveyed his congratulatory remark to CSC Regional Office IV Regional Director Maria Leticia G. Reyna for organizing the said event.

The funds earned from fun runs, trail hikes, and tree-planting events will go to Pamanang Lingkod Bayani, a program that honors government workers who died in the line of duty.

This program provides one-time financial assistance and scholarship opportunities to their family members.

Moreover, the Region IV CSC Chairperson emphasized that the total number of attendees exceeded expectations by 180 percent.

"Time and time again, when we organize events that showcase the unity of civil servants with a good cause, we truly express our love for the country and our love for the environment," Nograles said.

Santiago, Bureau of Fire Protection Calabarzon Fire Senior Inspector Argie J. Baniel, Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Officer Forester Ramil Limpiada, Philippine National Police Rizal Province OIC Provincial Director PCOL Rainerio M.
