For the past few months every Tuesday only me and @legendary rendered service. But Recently this morning together with @legendarypeter and @mabzter we reunited to accumulate total of 24 hours. In order for us to accomplished the 400 hours before the month of July ends. We need to work together, because the more manpower the more rendered of hours we can get.

As early as 6 o'clock in the morning we prepared our things before going to the site. We live their house at 7:20 AM for us to get the 8 hours service from 8 AM to 5 PM.
As we arrived to the site we go directly to the time keeper to log our time in and wait for their instructions. If what are the tasks we should do that day based also to the list of things to do by beneficiaries.

together with Yesterday while @mabzter and other female beneficiaries do the GI wire twisting. While @legendarypeter we do the mortar or filling the bamboo with mixed 50% sand, 50% cement and part of water.
This task is pretty easy, but most of our problem is when the sunlight is extremely releasing heat that my body can't tolerate. So this day is better than ever days we encounter for the past Sweat Equity project.

because only two of us are the representative that day so we joined instead to the construction worker who is working at the site.

We are very happy because even we are working hard at least the sunlight is below normal and we can work without jacket. The ray of sunlight does not appear but the temperature of the surrounding can cause excessive sweating. The humid here in Negros for the past weeks are very hot even no direct sunlight hitting your skin.

The atmosphere is concealing the heat like you are inside of the sauna. I don't know what's happening in the environment today is it what we called " Green House Effect? ".
However we were able to accomplished a total of 24 hours in total just for today day.
I know what I am doing is what you can do as a friend to the people you consider more than a friend already become your second family.

I am doing this for almost 5 months for them, even the distance of my house is more than an hour away to their residence. Still my desire to help them and give my full support as long as I can manage my time I am willing to offer my hand.

According to the facilitator of the Habitat for Humanity and also in-charge of sweat equity. The possible month that the project will be finished for the first batch is between the months of August to October. So we really need to double time our effort complete the 400 hours requirement.

This Foundation have different branches of offices here in the Philippines. So if you have friends or prospect looking for free housing they can apply and fillip the application form. What I mentioned earlier that the housing is for free, but you have to pay the lot. Don't worry the payment will start after 3 years and the amount ranges from 300-500 pesos per month. So its not really a big amount even your income belongs to low sector.
As long as you meet the required criteria, no reason for your application to be declined.
