Kalinga 777
in the Philippines - p#1 |

 |
| The people
of Amparo Subdivision lived a good, middle-class life except for one minor
problem- in their midst was a slum enclave where 48 families suffered abject
misery due to lack of basic amenities for a decent life. |
Instead of
shunning them, neighboring villages decided to help. Together with the poor
residents, they built roads, a canal system, a bridge, stairways, houses,
a clinic, a school, a multi-purpose covered court and set up programs for
education, health and livelihood. |

| With a strong
Kapitbahayan (neighborhood assocaition) in place, the spirit of Bayanihan
(cooperation) now throbs in the area. |
The poor
have gained confidence and now aspire for a better quality of life. |
