PROJECT

PROPOSAL
 Plant trees, Give life to the Future Generations!

Theme: Fresh and Sustainable Environment, Gift of Youth to Future Life

PROJECT DURATION

This project will be conducted for the whole second semester (5 months). Every Saturday
or once a week the students (CWTS 1) will visit the location or the site where the project propose
to be conducted to check if there is a development in the project produced by the students
(CWTS 1).

PROJECT SCOPE

Our adapted site to conduct the project is in San Roque, San Jose Occidental Mindoro
where we can find the Pandurucan Bridge which connects the downtown to the different
barangays of San Jose, Occidental Mindoro. The students adapted this community because they
have noticed that the trees beneath the Bridge are become lesser than its previous years. Whereas
the trees (bakawan) help the community to lessen floods from the river because the tree is
responsible to control the flow of the water that can also serve as the natural habitat of some
species of fish that can also help the community if there is a scarcity in food.

PROJECT STATUS

This project is on-going. The Community Extension Service of the Divine Word College
of San Jose is conducting the same activity to support the project. We intend to coordinate with
them our activities in order to collaborate with them our activity to perform it successfully that
can sustain the needs of the community. The students can also help the community cleaning the
river in order to avoid an unpleasant smell cause by the improper disposal of waste.

PROJECT BENEFICIARIES

The beneficiaries of this project are the people living in San Roque San Jose Occidental
Mindoro and the people living around the Pandurucan Bridge. But most affected individual
concerned in this project was the people who live beneath the river, they are directly benefited
because in terms of calamities they are protected and safe from the flood.

PROJECT BACKGROUND

Cleanliness is next to Godliness, and it’s better to cure than to say sorry because
environment is important for us as a human person we cannot live by our own and we cannot
provide our necessities without the environment. This is an environmental program that was
designed by the students as a means of conserving our environment with particular emphasis to
town’s people and the communities around them. This program has among its components,
issues that address health, water, and sanitation, environmental awareness, tree planting with
particular emphasis to multi-purpose trees and species especially Bakawan trees for the
community.

PROJECT JUSTIFICATION

This project is very beneficial for those people involve. They will not only learn the
benefit of a clean environment, a healthy body that can perform vigorous activities and becoming
more active in participation in school activities. Planting trees can also be an exercise you can
boost your energy in doing this at the same time helping the environment in growing more
productively that has a future benefit.

PROJECT OBJECTIVE

Our goal and objective for this project are to educate and help the community to be aware
and safe from the disasters coming from different calamities. To provide genereations of children
with healthy lifestyle and environmental education opportunities in the importance oftree
planting in our surroundings.

The objectives are to create preparedness in flooding and extra income for the
community. To pass on environment education for protection of our environment. To preserve
the cleanliness and pleasant smell of the surroundings.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

This project encourage more people to enjoy more in living near the pandurucan river and
enjoy the view, relax and alive smelling the natural resources. Tree planting is also a practical
way of introducing and integrating Environmental Education in community. The most
appropriate and sustainable solution is to support and encourage schools to establish their own
tree woodlots with emphasis on diversity in tree species, with a view to achieving self-
sufficiency in firewood supply.
