Balabac Science and Technology High School |
I planned on starting fundraising for this project only around May, though I have requested my constituents to ready a plan including a costing so I can be ready immediately after the preceding projects. Weeks after the visit, two days ago, 18 March, I received the layout.
Tonight, my messenger randomly pops up for a donation to the Renovation Project for Tandu Dagmay Primary School in Patikul, Sulu. I said our pledges for the project are almost complete, but donor said to keep it for future projects. Then the toilet project popped in Mind.
While the fund available from that donation is just a fifth of the required budget, it is easier than starting from nil. So, here i am again. Just when I keep telling myself that I got to halt temporarily from these outreach projects, I am pushing a new one.

So.. yes.. We are building the toilet for Boloboc Science and Technology High School this July 2015 :-). It was initially planned for May, but since we want to get the parents of the kids involved in the construction, i decided to wait until the opening of classes. Besides, I need to gather more funds to complete the construction.

Hi, Ian, how are you?! I am so sorry to hear about the students and their illness. During your mission in building a safe and toileting area, what are some other healthcare issues are the students facing or has poverty cause concerning other healthcare problems.
ReplyDeleteHi, I have received the feedback that there has can a case/cases of UTI and that because of the school's proximity to the student's houses and the lack of toilets, because students have to walk home, and we are talking of kilometers sometimes to use a toilet, some students feel lazy about coming back to school after. About government support, this is in fact why I am doing these projects, so we can supplement government efforts :-). Have I approached the government for this project? no.. i thought that there is no need as I can do it on my own. Plus, that is in fact why we are doing private citizen intervention, either their neglect or lack of resources.
DeleteHey how are you? I hope all is well...I have a question. In facing educational inequalities that you've seen throughout your outreach in terms of that country what is education equity and excellence? What is education equity and excellence consist of where you are and in that country?
