ORGANIC WELLNESS CENTER

Finally, after a long period of government mandated lockdowns, the foundation of the organic wellness center has been built.  It has almost been two years when the pandemic brought about a lot of misplaced workers.  This structure aims to provide a working space for a community livelihood program to augment the income of families whose main source of living was directly affected.

The foundation is the first phase in the construction of a building whether big or small. This is very important to be able to stabilize the building in terms of strength and capacity while ensuring its life.  Because the design is made of bamboo for the purpose of sustainability and friendly to the environment, its foundation has been designed using concrete.

COVID 19 continues to ravage the country and Dumaguete is not an exception.  We appeal to generous GlobalGiving donors for your support in the continuance of this project  and soon enough this  building will be put to use for those workers who lost their jobs and small businesses that closed down at his time of pandemic.  They will be able to have a space  to produce and sell their crafts to support their families.

After a series of declaration of government quarantine requirements by the COVID - 19 Philippine National Inter-Agency Task Force, the Organic Wellness Center has finally break ground.  This is always a positive sign that this project which aims to help the local community rise up to the pandemic challenge of creating a sustainable and enhanced livelihood program to those who have been greatly affected most especially those who have lost their means to earn for a decent living due to Covid-19.

As a refresher of this project for our donors to know about,  the organic wellness center is an alternative medicine production facility.  The location that is in Dauin, Negros Oriental, Philippines is rich in natural resources including local herbs and medicinal plants that the community can utilize to come up with inexpensive and organic products that are alternative sources to maintaining good health.   The facility can serve as a venue for production, packaging and selling.
