Laag Bisaya: Mission
One team. One goal 2 helpLaag Bisaya aims to help the people and the environment or to educate people about the importance of taking care of our mother nature, the importance of following the Leave No Trace policy. As we all know, nowadays, global warming is (lalong lumalala) due to our carelessness. Aside from that, Laag Bisaya, aims to help the less fortunate children in different places or in the mountainous areas of Visayas by doing an outreach program.
We collected our funds for the outreach program by organizing outdoor events and in that event, we sell customized t-shirts. The very first outreach program we’ve hosted was last December 2018 held at Gilutongan Elementary School, Gilutungan Island. The last year 2019, we had our second outreach activity held at Mulao Elementary School, Brgy. Mulao Compostela Cebu.
Unexpectedly, we have received a lot of supplies and cash donations from different entities and kind-hearted people. On this activity, we were able to cater 77 pupils from Grade 2 to Grade 3. Each kit consists of school supplies such as a writing pad, notebook, crayon, pen/pencil, sharpener, plastic envelop, drawing book. Also, we have added basic hygiene kit such as toothbrush, toothpaste, soap and shampoo, and face towel. Each pupil received one kit with school supplies, one set of hygiene kit and one free meal.
Activities
Before this event, we had planned several activities and games to be shared with the kids, not just for fun but also to educate them about proper hygiene and the importance of taking care of our environment. Thankfully, we had a volunteer/s who are equipped with knowledge and willingness to share the knowledge with these kids. We had our proper hand-washing and proper tooth-brushing session with some of our medical expert volunteers. We also had our basic environmental talk, just to remind and educate the kids on the importance of proper throwing of garbage as well as planting trees.
