LRT-1 private operator Light Rail Manila Corp. (LRMC) further beefs up its partnership with Binhi English Literacy Foundation, a nonprofit and nongovernmental organization, as it engaged its partner companies Alstom and Bouygues in supporting more classes for its advocacy of nation-building through quality education.

Started in School Year 2020-2021, the partnership between LRMC and Binhi English Literacy Foundation began with one class at Marcela Marcelo Elementary School in Pasay City being supported for the Beginning Reading Program. The primary objectives were to improve the students' comprehension skills and develop love for reading that will inspire them to do better in school and subsequently, improve their economic situation. The program resulted in a 40.8-percent improvement in average scores for the reading progress of students.
