We finally arrived in Lamut Central Elementary School where the LB Charitable Foundation went to school back in the days. We were met by the the DePEd and PTA along with the 3 K cares Foundation of Ifugao. We dicussed on how we can solve the water crisis at the school with over a thousand students. This is one of the schools that I visited last year but the water source did not pass testing for potable drinking water because it was not properly drilled. We finally agreed to drill a new well for the school.
January 3, 2025, I will be travelling to Albay to continue our work with DMPF and the Philippine Navy NAVCOM and install water filters at the areas affected by the recent typhoons. I will be heading to Negros Occidental to install filters at the evacuation centers at recent Kanlaon Volcano eruption.
Our mission in Albay was very successful with a lot of volunteers involved, thanks to the Dios Mabalos Foundation of Daraga Albay for their continued support to our work in the Bicol Regions. We visited Lupi, Cam Sur and installed water filters to mostly the poor Barangay areas of the Municipality. We were welcomed by the Mayor of Lupi with overwhelming hospitality showed by the Mayor and LGU's.
We got back to Daraga serving in Legaspi where most floodings occur during the recent typhoons that swept through the Bicol Regions. We traveled south through Sorsogon installing filters to the elementary schools and rehabilitation centers managed by the Catholc Nuns of Daraga.
Finally we went back to Lagonoy Cam Sur to visit the filters we installed last year with Bobby Garcia and DMPF. all 10 barangays are still using the filters consistently serving at least 500 families. An excellent report by the nuns that less waterbourne desease affecting the communities since we installed the filters. We added another 7 units this time areas affected by floodings.
I'm back here in Lamut Ifugao to meet with the well drillers, our plans with LBCharitable Foundation to provide wells at mostly schools that did not pass our tests for potable water. Our partnership with 3 K cares Foundation has offered a state of the art drilling machine for us to use for free. God's connection from people that believed our vision to provide safe clean drinking water to the needy specially the children and elderly.
And to all of you who supported our cause thank you and God's speed.
