The presence of these groups reflected the depth of community support for the programs of the Aurora Hill Police Station and the shared commitment to inclusive public service.

Guest of Honor and Message of Unity

The Guest of Honor and Speaker was Mrs. Soledad Go, who emphasized the importance of a strong and sustained relationship between the police and the community in achieving a safer environment—one that is conducive to living, studying, working, and doing business.

During the program, representatives from various partner organizations shared positive feedback on the Police Community Relations initiatives implemented by the Aurora Hill Police Station, particularly those focused on strengthening police–community engagement and mutual trust.

Balik Eskwela and Community Support

A key highlight of the culmination activity was the distribution of school supplies, school bags, and blankets to 40 indigent students from different barangays of Aurora Hill—formally implementing the Balik Eskwela support component of the station’s community programs.

In addition, members of the SAGPTD donated one twelve-channel mixer and a high-end speaker with microphone, intended for the establishment of the “Ugnayang Pulisya at Komunidad” Media Corner, further enhancing the station’s capacity for information dissemination and community engagement.

A Shared Commitment to Service

The 27th PCR Month Culmination Activity reaffirmed the Philippine National Police’s commitment to community-oriented policing—where enforcement is balanced with education, culture, and compassion. Through strong partnerships, meaningful outreach, and responsive leadership, the Aurora Hill Police Station demonstrated that public safety is best achieved when the police and the community move forward together.
