Community and Family Services International (CFSI) was awarded by the Department of Education Zamboanga City Division as the Most Outstanding Stakeholder of 2017, at the Division Awarding Ceremony held in Grand Astoria Hotel, Zamboanga City.
The award was presented in recognition of the unwavering support to schools made possibly by the Zamboanga Recovery Project (ZRP), an initiative of CFSI, with funding support from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade Australia, in response to the humanitarian crisis brought about by the Zamboanga Siege in 2013. CFSI was nominated by the Zamboanga Central School and SpEd Centre, which was assisted by the ZRP in 2017 through a water system rehabilitation.
