BUILDING HOMES, BUILDING HOPE , something like that . . .


A SUMMER OF SERVICE

Summer Build Activity Report:

With the initiative of the FSSID and in collabiration with the KKP-SIP, The SBMSC embark on a mission to build homes in the Habitat for Humanity in Kalaanan, Cagayan de Oro City on June 1, 2007. The eager volunteers gathered at the capsule in front of the Science Center around 8 am for the assembly. Fifteen volunteers opted to rendered their time and effort for this activity and with this sufficient number, the team left for Kalaanan in the means of a public jeepney. We began our volunteer work with an orientation with Mr. “Kokoy” Narva, the project manager of the Habitat for Humanity. After a few minutes of input, the volunteers marched towards the construction site to begin the real meat of the activity. Our efforts varied from shovelling through heavy rocks, mixing cement, and creating a human conveyor belt for efficient construction. We agreed to call it a day around 11:30 am after our snack break realizing that we have contributed significantly in the construction of the houses. It was a day not just of sweat and dirty hands but of bonding and reflection.
