Last December 13, 2014, Primavera Residences personnel have come together in support of the building’s advocacy to a clean and green environment.

In celebration of the National Volunteer Month with the theme “Volunteering for the Environment”, Primavera Residences took the opportunity to care for the environment by successfully conducting a clean-up drive around Pueblo de Oro Business Park’s Trade Street and areas nearby.

“To be part of a sustainable development and joining its advocacies is not just rewarding but also a testimony that Cagayan de Oro’s progress still goes hand in hand with nature. The clean-up drive was fun and fulfilling at the same time. Waking up early for a satisfying reason is truly worth it,” Cesar Stefan Rago, PR & Marketing Coordinator, said.

At exactly 7 o’clock in the morning, Primavera Residences personnel began sweeping and collecting garbage around the area and found out that most of the wastes are cigarette butts, chips and candy wrappers, cellophane, and plastic bottles.

“As an advocate for green living and sustainable development, I found the whole experience very fulfilling because I believe that the small things we do for our environment will bring a great impact in the world. Nothing can compare to the feeling of knowing that you’re making the world a better place to live in, one small act at a time,” Diana Christy Zamora, Marketing Support Officer, said.

Rhapsody Binasbas, one of Primavera’s financial accountants said that it was a wonderful experience giving Mother Earth the care she deserves.

Primavera Residences, which garnered several local and international recognitions for its commitment to green architecture and design, is known for its passive energy-saving features such as cantilevers that protect the units from direct sunlight and an indoor courtyard that maximizes the natural ventilation in the area. The building is also designed to withstand earthquakes and extreme weather conditions.

Sustainable developer ITPI, has invested in alternative locations where nature and the environment has been thoroughly preserved and optimized. Primavera Residences, located in a master planned community in uptown Cagayan de Oro, was built in 2009 and has been effectively on the lead in promoting green advocacies in Cagayan de Oro.
