Attending the Barangay Session has been one of the constants of the Team
Venus. With this, we are able to strengthen our rapport with the officials,
have an open communication with them and discuss the progress of our
implemented projects and programs. On the other hand, barangay officials also
raise their concerns, suggestions and requests.
During our two month long stay here in the community, we were able to
attend five barangay sessions. Different activities were
discussed and agreed upon.
Activities are the following:
l General
assembly for the update and discussion of the different commuunity health plans
l The very
successful “Dagan para sa Dughan’ funrun activity that is intended for the
procurement of the automated BP booth
l A cooking
show called Kalushowgan for the benefit of the identified malnourished children
here in the barangay
l Water tank
chlorination to ensure delivery of safe drinking water to the people
l The revival
and beautification of the livelihood building in the barangay
l Creation of
the BADAK Center
l Construction
of Solar Disinfection Station for the three puroks
l Construction
of Corn MRF called Be, Bote, a bin for plastic and PET bottles
l Clean-up
drive together with the Barangay Officials
l The DOST
livelihood training for the members of the women’s organization
l Procurement
of Plastic Shredder by the LGU & ADZU-SOM Medical Students
Without the help and cooperation of the barangay officials and residents, our projects and programs will never be successful and effective. Team Venus still holds the vision of helping the people in the community to become self reliant. Through community participation and cooperation, everything can be achieved.
