Project Metamorphosis: “Operation Clean-up Drive Towards Community Progress” a project by Team Loyalty I. Project Title Project Metamorphosis derives from the concept of a butterfly breaking outside its cocoon, in other words it symbolizes transformation. The project composes of three programs which are the Coastal Clean-up, Environmental Awareness Campaign and Educational Outreach programs. The purpose of these programs is to orient environmental awareness and strategic garbage disposal to the residents of Purok 1, Barangay Sta. Cruz. The project also aims for the barangay to maintain the cleanliness and like the butterfly, fly to numerous gardens of opportunity and beauty. II. Expected total budget and duration Total Budget The Coastal Clean-up program had no budgetary plan for the materials needed are just plastic bags and sacks. Meanwhile, the Environmental Awareness Campaign has a total budget of P 1 600 in accordance with the materials for trash-bin making, distribution of pamphlets, building of placards and tree guards . For the Educational Outreach program budget is P 2 000 used in buying seventeen pair of slippers, educational materials and prizes for games. The remaining P 940 was used for additional expenses such as travel fare, vehicle’s fuel and multimedia purposes. The Approximate Budget is P 4 540. Duration Before starting the projects, the first and second meeting was allocated for surveying. The duration of the programs must at least fit the five week bracket for such tasks are done accordingly by assigning team members.

III. Beneficiaries The Coastal Clean-up program focuses on all members of community especially the families living near the seashore whose houses are vulnerable to high tides and also the accumulation of trash carried by the tides. For the Environmental Awareness Campaign, its beneficiaries include all the residents in the Purok 1. Its to encourage all of the indigents to indulge themselves in such activities for recreational purposes and also for the benefit of the environment while discourage the burning of plastics. Lastly the Educational Outreach Campaign’s target audience are children with the age of four to twelve who lives within the area. As the team teaches them basic concepts of proper waste disposal, personal hygiene and sanitation, lessons about nutrition and teaching good manners and right conduct. IV. Potential Donors The team can be considered as an independent social unit in terms of financial needs. But with regards to the trash-bin making, there was an unexpected donation of fifteen wood materials coming from Mr. Reynaldo H. Bacatan owner of a furniture shop and a parent of Renelen Nicole P. Bacatan a member of the team. V. Potential partners The potential partner of the team is a non-government organization named Plan. The team sent a letter of proposal for the assessment of Mangrove planting near the seashore. For the team’s contribution alone cannot shoulder the purchase of mangrove seedlings and the students had premature knowledge about such topic. Unfortunately, the confirmation takes time as the organization evaluates different barangays throughout the province. Up until now, we wait for their confirmation patiently while doing our job by assisting the residents. VI. Team Proponent The project involves the participation of the NSTP-CWTS students specifically the Team Loyalty (comprising of BS in Food Technology, Forestry, Environmental Science, Agribusiness and Statistics). The project would not be successful without the full support of our coordinator Mr. Marlon Dampios, the team facilitators Ms.Samantha Almaden and Ms.Iahleah Besas. The project was at Purok 1, Barangay

5

Sta. Cruz with the aid of the Barangay Captain Engr. William Ramoneda who suggested to implement the project in Purok 1 along with other barangay officials and the residents of Barangay Sta.Cruz. VII. Supervisor/ Team Coordinator The project is supervised by Mr. Marlon Dampios. He monitored the flow of project and guided the team throughout the initiation. He instructed the team by checking for the project's developmental plan, uplifted existing concerns towards the barangay, cite potential problems and coordinated with the barangay captain for further notice. VIII. Rationale Coastal Clean-up Program Throwing of waste product along the shore of Purok 1, Barangay Sta. Cruz is observed as the population increases. Difficulties in controlling its residence on proper disposal of their garbage has been a problem to its environment. As part of the main objective of the proposed project, a coastal clean-up along the shore of Sta. Cruz as well as its nearby areas will be conducted. This aims to promote a better environment for the residents of the barangay. As a twist of this project this involves not just the CWTS students but also the youth through the help of barangay officials. This will encourage them to maintain the cleanliness and will hone one’s ability to get along with others aside from helping them live in a better environment. This would also help minimize the garbage in the coastal areas, prevent diseases caused by improper waste disposal and provide abundant opportunities for the residents especially the fishermen and indigents living in the coastal areas. Such that they are the main target and center of the project. Environmental Awareness Campaign The team noticed that the residents manner of segregation of waste is by burning of plastics, all together with other garbage components. Interviewing different indigents in the said area, we were able to know a shocking past from one of the resident whose identity is withhold for confidentiality and protection of privacy. A parent of five kids supposedly, told us a story about the death of her child from cancer. That resident burned plastics everyday, without knowing that burning it would release harmful chemicals that could cause cancer. With that story, the team’s dedication fires up. The intention of this campaign is to promote complete awareness, that their common ways of disposal is harmful to the

6

environment as well as for their family.

Educational Awareness Program During Saturday visits, the team noticed children playing near the seashore. Upon arrival, a sudden curiosity strikes them. That leads us to an inspiration which is to involve them in such lectures that would help them to be more productive and spend their spare time on meaningful things. The purpose of the program is to influence and inspire young people to indulge in fun and helpful activities. Emphasizing the fun for a cause concept, the children in the said purok became the front runners for awareness. They influence their parent’s to stop burning plastics and to segregate. The team also teaches them the most vital part of work which is loyalty as their service commemorates to our National Hero’s famous quotation which is: “Ang Kabataan ay ang Pag-asa ng Bayan.” IX. Objectives 



Improve the lifestyle of the residents of Purok 1, Barangay Sta. Cruz.

X. Methodologies/ Strategies The three programs share the same methodology and strategy. It involves survey, lecture about the problem and most especially the application of the said programs. Methodologies

7

Division of labor and concrete plan of work is the main method for the success of the project. To achieve that the team has the following methods:  The team is divided into three subgroups ( in accordance with the program) and is then again subdivided into factions ( documentation, logistics and communication) in which every member has assigned tasks so that the project will work efficiently.

 The logistics will take care of the materials and will prepare for the area of venue during the respective programs. They will be the ones to follow up the members of the subgroups if they have prepared the materials that are essential. They must report to their team leader two days before the initiation.  The communication team is responsible for making surveys, gathering data and providing information during lectures. They are the link between the residents and the team. They must record the data every time the team visits and puts the project into action. They are encouraged to show a progress/ development report at the every end of the initiation.  The documentation will compile videos and images throughout the project in order to see the progress and also showcase what the project is all about. They are tasked to show their compilation in the end of every program. Strategies  Consistency The strategy of the team is consistency. The team must be consistent in maintaining every part of the plan and must also practice discipline by passing and accomplishing their tasks in accordance to the respective deadlines.  Effective Communication Also establishing communication is important. The team must communicate with one another by sharing the data that they gathered through any forms of media such as facebook, texting and having regular meetings at least once a week with the president as the proponent. Also the team must communicate with the residents and must listen to all their concerns and suggestions. The team collected contact numbers from the residents in order to propagate effective communication and interaction every week, for us to know if they are practicing the concepts learned.  Discipline

8

The role of the facilitators and the coordinator is to guide the whole members of the team. Discipline is highly emphasized throughout the project by giving out demerits according to their deficiencies. Also the facilitators and our coordinator would not want to exercise inferiority complex. And breaking that atmosphere , they implement conditioning by giving out merits to every job well done. Consistency, effective communication and discipline are they key ingredients for a more clean and environment friendly community.

XI. Expected Outputs/ Outcomes The outcome or expected output of the Coastal Clean-up Program is for the residents to introduce the importance of a clean coastal area. Since the elderly are busy with their works and whereabouts as a parent and guardian, their children will be the one expected to do a clean-up drive after high tides. It’s to lessen the waste materials which are being thrown and to be able to set a permanent schedule for a coastal cleanup which during their free times (e.g weekends and holidays). The prospect of Environmental Awareness Program primarily focuses on the engagement of proper waste disposal and discourage the burning of plastics. By showing them video clips on segregation, recycling and documentaries from TV shows (specifically from GMA Network) gave us an opportunity to orient them to stop burning and do recycling. To have a clean surrounding that is essential for a healthy living, people will segregate biodegradable materials, apply the 3R’s (reduce, re-use, recycle) and practice the “clean and green” principle. Lastly, the Educational Outreach Program’s outlook is to educate children in the most basic principles of being a productive Filipino citizen. We give out writing materials, for the children to remember the lectures conducted. As the team orients them into five lectures and they are expected to live with those learning's and put them into practice. These are made possible by doing a forum after every clean-up drive which is done during weekends and holidays. XII. Plan of Work The three programs still share the same plan. Though it has a different ways of implementation depending on what the type of program it is. It’s decided that there should be at least four or five meetings per program . It can be achieved by assigning a certain program in its specific date of implementation. The plan of work goes like this:

9

1st meeting - Surveying 1. Conduct a house to house interview and know every resident’s outlook and situation. 2. Determine the projects that needs to be implemented by asking potential questions that would inspire us to put the programs into practice.

2nd meeting- Preparation 1. Making tree guards, trash-bins and placards. Jotting down ideas for the lectures, pamphlets and videos. 2. Initiation of the program. 3rd meeting- Implementation 1. Initiation of program. 2. Report the developments and tackle concerns in order to avoid future problems. 4th meeting- Implementation 1. Initiation of program 2.
