The APOPI Alumni Association, Inc., in partnership with the UST Office of Alumni Relations, and in coordination with Santisimo Rosario Parish - UST, served almost 200 non-academic employees of the University last November 23, 2024 at the UST IPEA Practice Gym during the "Mega Service 3".

The beneficiaries, which comprised of support staff, security personnel, janitors, and maintenance workers, availed free medical and dental services. Eye check-ups were also available during the event, and reading glasses were distributed to patients to improve their eyesight. Free medicines were also dispensed after check-up, and the children of registered patients were able to get free vitamins.

A feeding program was also happening simultaneously during the mission, and gifts such as food pantry supplies, toys, and candies were given away to the people.

The program began with a Eucharistic Celebration presided over by Rev. Fr. Nathan Rawlins. Organizers, volunteers, and patients who joined the activity were blessed during the mass.

Mega Service is a series of medical missions initiated by the APOPI Alumni Association, Inc. which began in 2023. The group plans to hold another Mega Service in the first half of 2025.
