In 2025, Typhoon Tino and other disasters hit Cebu hard, damaging an elementary school and displacing families. With no proper evacuation center, classrooms double as shelters, disrupting learning. Building a multipurpose covered court and evacuation facility will protect students and families during disasters, keeping education safe. Your support brings hope and helps build a stronger, more resilient Philippines.
Biasong Elementary was among the hardest-hit schools during Typhoon Tino, with floodwaters reaching the second floor, damaging classrooms, equipment, and leaving rooms covered in mud. Students faced displacement, fear, and loss. Lacking a proper evacuation center, classrooms double as shelters, disrupting learning and straining facilities. While a permanent site is sought, the school remains the main refuge for families in need.
This shows the urgent need to build a Multipurpose Covered Court and Evacuation Facility on the school grounds that protects both students and families during disasters, ensuring that education continues while communities stay safe.
Building a SPHERE-standard multipurpose covered court means classrooms can stay dedicated to learning. It also provides a safe evacuation space during disasters and supports student and community health with proper water, sanitation, ventilation, and lighting. The facility can also be used for school and community activities, helping to strengthen social bonds and long-term disaster resilience.
