Join us in the heart of Manila as we explore the resilient community of Baseco, where residents face daily challenges of poverty and pollution. In this powerful video, we delve into the lives of solo parents and families who are fighting to make ends meet amidst the harsh realities of living in a dumpsite along the Pasig River.
Through the voices of community members like Elsa Paluga, Mike Brusola, and Reach Peñaflor, we uncover the struggles and triumphs of those who call Baseco home. From the daily struggle to find food and basic necessities to the innovative initiatives that bring hope and change, this story is a testament to the strength and solidarity of the human spirit.
Pure Bayanihan has been instrumental in providing livelihood assistance and training to the residents of Baseco. Their efforts have not only helped in reducing waste but also in creating sustainable income opportunities for the community.
Watch as we highlight the impact of Pure Bayanihan’s programs and the community’s collective efforts to overcome adversity. This is a story of hope, resilience, and the power of bayanihan (solidarity) in the face of overwhelming challenges.
