'Run for Pasig River' Give Light to Estero de Paco

Twenty nine solar street lights were installed along the stretch of the Estero de Paco between Osmeña Highway and Quirino Avenue.

The solar streetlights were donated to the Estero de Paco community by ABS-CBN Foundation’s Kapit Bisig para sa Ilog Pasig (KBPIP), specifically from the 11.20.2011 Run for the Pasig River.

The solar street lights, the first of its kind put up in the City of Manila, were lit in a ceremonial lighting on Friday night (Jan 4) with Manila Mayor Alfredo Lim and ABS-CBN Foundation Managing Director Gina Lopez.

Lopez and Lim expressed hope that the residents take care of the streetlights donated to their community.

Estero de Paco is the 2.9-kilometer pilot estero rehabilitated by ABS-CBN Foundation’s Kapit Bisig para sa Ilog Pasig (KBPIP) and Pasig River Rehabilitation Commission together with other partner agencies.
