In the aftermath of the strongest typhoon ever hiting the Philippines, we would probably find more and more children and their families living in the streets again. For those who luckily survived this calamity, the path to a brighter future is not already over ... warm thoughts to the filipino nation during that time of disaster suffering. We haven't forgotten you !
Indeed, the SDC children have been benefiting from
many improvements. In addition to maintaining the activities that we have already implemented, we have helped to renovate and equip a
dormitory which can now accommodate more healthily more or less twenty children (the youngest in priority) . We build
colorful concrete beds and benches, made 9 twin bed size washable foam mattresses, put mosquitos screens and doors and finally repainted all the dorm in friendly colors coming along with a beautiful mural painting. That latters would surely give them more energy to develop theirs ideas to how to ponder their future. This dynamic
support and active solidarity, thanks to the help of the
City of Bacolod and local private partners , the center has been equipped with
seven brand new showers and led lights in every rooms powered by panels solar. However, it remains further efforts and resources to be provided in order to complete the rehabilitation of the remaining
damaged dormitories, especially the one for girls, and the creation of a kitchen and dining room. According to the future donations that we can raise, we would also like to allow a steady supply of
hygiene and health items to the children,
medical check-up and continue the
educational and physical sports activities which will have undoubtedly a very positive impact on their behaviors and values acceptance.
