RATIONALE
Improper waste disposal is one of the common problems that the barangays in the
Philippines are currently facing. Garbage that are not disposed of properly could lead to a lot of
problems in the community. Foul odor from the garbage may cause negative effects to the health
of the residents. Undisposed garbage may cause flooding because it can block the sewages or
canals of the community added to the fact that pests may colonize the area.
According to Davao Today (2019), an online news magazine, there is an increasing piling
up of garbage in the city, triggered by a growing population, public neglect of proper waste
disposal and lack of implementation of environmental ordinances. The group, Interface
Development Interventions (IDIS) Inc. said that based on the City Environment and Natural
Resources Office (Cenro) 2018 record, the city’s volume of waste generated averages 1,012 tons
a day but daily collection would only cover only 292 tons a day.
There are people living in a community that do not have any interest in cleaning their
garbage and never practice proper waste disposal. Without proper waste disposal, there will be
continuous piling up of garbage resulting to clogged canals and drainage eventually causing flood
water to overflow during heavy rains. Dumping of wastes in coastal areas pose a negative effect
on the environment eventually impacting the food chain. Hence, this now becomes everybody’s
problem. Even if we do not live in the slums, even if we are sheltered in gated communities, we
are very much affected because we use the same food chain as everyone else. Though our houses
are not infested, our subdivision canals are not flooded, still, we use the same road on a daily basis,
we eat the products from the sea and we breathe the same air. So, in one way or another, whether
we like it or not, we have to be involved in curbing out these problems in the community.
If we are able to catch the people’s attention on the importance of cleaning after their own
mess, then, probably, it will be a start of a new beginning, a much more involved community, a
better environment and a good legacy for the next generation.
If a community will practice proper waste management, it can avoid complications that
may harm the community. The proposed project (proper waste disposal; correct garbage
segregations; and cleaning one’s own generated wastes) could become the solution to the garbage
problem of the city. The community garbage rehabilitation scheme could start with one single
step. If we can help the community by adding trash bins that will help the people be reminded of
their responsibility in cleaning up the environment, then it would surely be a good start on our
advocacy to save mother earth.

PROJECT OBJECTIVE
The proposed project intends to provide 6 garbage bins to the community following the
thorough observation and understanding of their needs. However, the objective of the proposed
project is not only limited to this tangible outcome. It also aims to preserve the health and welfare
of both the people and the environment by preventing the adverse effects that might be caused by
the build-up of toxins and garbage in the community.
More importantly, it is also the goal of the proposed project to have a long-term impact to
the community. With this, a part of the implementation of the project is the conduct of symposiums
about proper waste management and disposal. Along with the garbage bins where the people of
the community will throw their trash, they will also be equipped with the knowledge of how to
properly segregate, reuse, and recycle their garbage. The project also anticipates that the
community will be aware of the positive effects of disposing and managing waste properly as well
as the negative effects of doing otherwise. In the long run, instilling the habit of proper waste
management and disposal to the people of the community will also restore the natural and diverse
ecosystem of the community's environment.
EXPECTED OUTPUT
Five Saturdays of service will be allotted to the community, the proponents anticipate the
following:
Around 6 new garbage bins are delivered to the community.
The said garbage bins are dispersed throughout the community and placed in
accessible areas.
Proper waste management and disposal symposiums are conducted with more than
half of community attending the said symposiums.
SUCCESS INDICATORS
The proposed project creates a positive change in the chosen community, which can
include behavioral changes from the community. The project is designed to share large scale
impacts to the community, as well as bringing long term benefits. The group expects to fulfill the
following after a specified time frame:
The community will have more organized segregation bins.
The community will start practicing proper waste segregation diligently.
The community is expected to continue practicing proper waste segregation.

ACTIVITIES AND STRATEGIES
To realize the objectives, the project will make use of the following activities and strategies:
● The group will do a fundraising activity to be able to fund this project.
● Coordinate with the barangay captain about the implementation of the project.
● Divide group members into subgroups to work in sourcing out garbage bins and making
recycling signage designs to label the new garbage bins.

on a specific aspect of the project such as the financial state, the production of the trash bins and
the communication between the team and the leaders of the community, and the documentation of
the progress of the project. The team leader will be tasked to facilitate a short meeting every
Saturday after NSTP. In the meeting, the member who is in charge of a specific task will be

OUTPUT
APPENDIX A: Community Profile
Background of the Community
The community is situated in Purok 6, Bago Aplaya, Davao City.
Current Facilities in the Community
Facilities such as the barangay hall, a covered court, and an elementary school are
conveniently accessible to the citizens. Other facilities such as the police station and the health
center are around a five-minute jeepney ride away from the community. The presence of barangay
tanods is also advantageous for their safety. Programs by the government in partnership with their
barangay such as medical check-ups, vaccinations, etc. are also being conducted there. Local
organizations like women's organization who promotes health and cleanliness are also present.
Health Information
The citizens had experienced a lot of coughing and fever during the rainy season, especially
the younger ones. According to an interviewee, this might be caused by their weak immune system
and how they take care of their health. They also suffered from a dengue outbreak, which in
response, the authorities conducted the fogging process to prevent the further spreading of the
virus in the community. This was said to be a turning point for the citizens wherein the importance
of keeping the community clean and healthy was emphasized. Moreover, the community’s health
care facility has held an anti-polio vaccination, deworming program, and feeding program. Most
of their programs are intended for children since they are more likely to be susceptible to diseases.
Socio-cultural Information
The people in the community came from different places but most of them are Bisaya,
speaking the Cebuano language, and practicing the Bisaya culture while some residents are Waray.
There are also a few residents whose mother tongue is Tagalog.
Political Information
An interviewee believes that the politics in the community has been said to be influenced
by a ‘palakasan system’ wherein some officials favor those who are close to them, which is unfair
to all the other members of the community. However, some believes that the government officials
are doing their best to attend to their needs and concerns in the barangay. Being ruled by their
barangay captain, an interviewee says that the community is handled and managed well.
10
Socio-economic Information
Each family in the community have their own livelihood. Some of them have sari-sari
stores which help them sustain their everyday needs while most of the people are employed in
companies in the city proper. An interviewee mentioned that he was a former taxi driver, and that
some of the teachers that work in the nearby school also live within the community. Despite having
sources of income, it is not enough for some families especially when family members get sick.
Yet, the community can be considered a developing community. Many projects are being
implemented and the community members work hand in hand to achieve their goals in the
economic aspect.
Religious Information
The community is composed of people coming from different religions but most of them
are Catholics who are active members of the Gagmay'ng Kristohanong Katilingban or GKK which
is the basic ecclesial community of the Catholic Church. The GKK conducts several regular
activities which involve its members and sometimes, it collaborates with the purok. An interviewee
mentioned a nearby church in which they attend mass but the interviewee also noted that there are
some that do prayer and worship within their homes. Some other citizens are Muslims and
Christians and despite having different religions, they still understand each other. They know how
to respect each other and they consider their neighbors as family.
Other Needs of the Community
According to an interviewee and from what we have observed, the cleanliness of the
community is the major area to be improved. They need a clean canal. Their canal is very narrow
and dirty which results to some bad effects such as flooding and increase of dengue cases in the
community. Additionally, they also have a trouble in cleaning their places since there are
insufficient amount of garbage bins found in their area. Another interviewee also opened up that
their unfinished basketball gym concerns him. This project was proposed and was put into action
last year but there was a sudden stop to the construction process.
