Narrative report

Name: Mac Lovell Keith D. Ates BSIT blk7

In the early hours of May 3, 2024, under the vibrant sun of Barangay
Bolol-Mala, a remarkable event unfolded as students from the esteemed School
of Environmental and Industrial Technology (SEAIT) merged their efforts with
local residents for an impactful clean-up drive. This collaborative endeavor was
not merely about physical cleanliness but aimed at fostering a deeper sense of
environmental stewardship and community pride. The success of the clean-up
drive was rooted in meticulous planning and coordination. SEAIT's dedicated
student council, in close partnership with barangay leaders, laid the groundwork
weeks in advance. Volunteers were recruited, and essential equipment including
stick brooms, gloves, and trash bags were secured.

The air buzzed with anticipation and a shared commitment to make a difference.
As dawn broke, volunteers gathered at the designated site, brimming with
enthusiasm and purpose. At 8:00 AM sharp, the clean-up drive commenced with
a sense of unity and determination. Divided into teams, each armed with their
cleaning supplies, we set our sights on rejuvenating the barangay's Material
Recovery Facility (MRF), a pivotal hub in the community's waste management
infrastructure. The MRF, once a neglected space, became the focal point of our
efforts. Our initial task was to clear the immediate surroundings, removing debris
and creating a safe workspace.

With stick brooms in hand, we methodically swept away years of neglect,


revealing hidden corners and restoring order to the area. Having laid the
groundwork, we transitioned into the core of our mission – waste sorting and
organization. Guided by SEAIT faculty members, we meticulously categorized
waste into recyclables, biodegradables, and non-recyclables. This process not
only cleansed the environment but also served as an educational platform,
enlightening participants about the critical importance of waste segregation for
sustainable recycling and disposal practices. A pivotal aspect of the clean-up
drive was the engagement with the local community. Residents of all ages joined
us in discussions about waste management strategies, emphasizing the
principles of reduce, reuse, and recycle.

Children, in particular, eagerly participated, absorbing valuable lessons through


hands-on involvement and observation. As the sun reached its zenith, a profound
transformation had taken place. The once-dilapidated MRF stood as a testament
to collective action and dedication. Bags of sorted waste symbolized not just
cleanliness but a renewed sense of responsibility and environmental
consciousness. The impact transcended mere physical tidiness; it resonated in
the newfound camaraderie and shared purpose among participants. The clean-
up drive at Barangay Bolol-Mala exemplified the power of collaborative action in
fostering community empowerment and environmental stewardship. Beyond the
immediate results of a cleaner environment, seeds of change and responsibility
were sown, promising a greener, more sustainable future. As we bid farewell to
Bolol-Mala, we carry with us a sense of fulfillment and gratitude for the
opportunity to contribute meaningfully to our surroundings and inspire others to
follow suit.
