The cleaning activity and camaraderie of the Calambahanons also serves as a model to others. Employees, teachers, school staffs, students and other participating sectors were required to bring broom and other cleaning paraphernalia.

As early as 4:30 in the morning, the Calamba Public Market filled with students, teachers and employees from the Private and Public Offices joining the Walk for a Cause. The activity formally opened with a short program followed by the yearly “Hataw”. Municipal Mayor Luisito B. Villanueva delivered his welcome message.
