“We used to plant and harvest only vegetables and rice. But in between planting and harvesting, we do not earn. Because of BASE, we now earn the whole year harvesting bamboo. Now, my family can eat 3 meals a day and we can send our youngest child to school”
-PATRICIO MATULAC, MURCIA FARMER
“We lost our previous house to a very strong typhoon. In this house, we feel SAFE. Now, We don’t have to think of the expenses for the rent and so it’s easier to send our children to school. The school is near the community and even the jobs are accessible”
Raffy Rampah, Beneficiary – Bagong Silangan
Not only are we giving a bright future to a community of 50 families with the beautiful homes but even more, we are learning how bamboo, that is abundant in our province, can be a sustainable alternative to helping the homeless build strong and lasting homes.
Roberto Magalona, Gawad Kalinga Bacolod
