What used to be a garbage dumpsite on a thousand square meter ground in Barangay Cuayan is now transformed into a promising butterfly sanctuary. The Angeles City Ecology Park, standing on a land donated by the Angeles City Government, aims to become a model of urban ecological hub while at the same time a self-sustaining income-generating project for the local residents of Brgy. Cuayan. It is an alternative educational experience for students and environmental enthusiasts alike.

Angeles City Ecology Park is the result of ongoing partnership between government organizations (GO) and non-government organizations (NGO). Samahan ng Mamamayan ng Cuayan or SAMAKA, a Barangay Cuayan-based people’s organization is the main proponent of this project with support from the Cuayan Barangay Council, Holy Angel University and the Angeles City Government

Like a butterfly that goes through stages in its life cycle, the project was completed in a span of six years from 2001-2007, undergoing several phases/processes --- organization, mobilization, resource generation, construction, operation and preparation for sustainability. The phases draw the collaborative efforts of various sectors for its completion.

SAMAKA has opened the Ecopark for awareness and promotion in December 2007. This will also facilitate improvement of the procedures through selected trips and improve its physical features through initial earnings in time for full operation next school year 2008-2009.

This is a program that emphasize the synergy of various sectors coming together to support efforts at improving the quality of public education in the province. Initial activities such as school profiling and strategic planning, teacher training for San Luis schools and early detection of childhood disability in Floridablanca have already been undertaken, facilitated by the Provincial Government, DepEd-Pampanga, pilot LGUs, and Holy Angel University – all signatories of the 57-75 MOU. The pilot municipalities include San Luis, Mabalacat, Floridablanca, Porac, and Minalin.

57-75 is a national multi-sectoral campaign that aims to reverse the education crisis in our country. It is a private sector initiative focusing on school-community action towards system-wide performance improvements. There are three key intervention areas: Retention, Comprehension, and Achievement.

Led by the League of Corporate Foundations (LCF), the members of the national 57-75 consortium include the Department of Education, Foundation for Worldwide People Power, Ateneo Center for Educational Development, Synergeia Foundation, Philippine Business for Education, and Philippine Business for Social Progress.

Busog Lusog Talino (BLT)of Jollibee Foundation. BLT is a program of Jollibee Foundation . It was commissioned through Holy Angel University as local implementing partner. It started in August 2008 and has continued this new school year.

There were seven (7) schools under BLT for SY 2008-2009. These schools were identified on account of being under 57-75 pilot municipalities and as endorsed by DepEd Pampanga based on the nutritional status. Served were 245 school children from Grades 1 and 2 in the municipality of San Luis, Floridablanca, Porac, Minalin. Of these seven schools, one is a Katutubo school for Aetas, one resettlement school.
