College Pala invited me to come to Palawan. It was my first time to immerse myself in a very marginalized, rural community. There was no electricity, no signal, no water. When we came to the community, we should help each other. Went to volunteer for the kids. But when we came there, they were still there for us. At first, they were just asking for help. Then, when we came there, they were the first catch that they were given. Then, they were there for us. It's a different feeling when you want to help, but the community there, the ones who realize that it's up to them to help. When I realized that, wait, t I went back to my apartment and mastered my skills. I didn't work anymore. I just volunteered to volunteer for my education. I have groups that are more on-door, speeding, gift-giving. After four or five years of volunteering, I didn't change my state of living. I asked the elders who are Because we are thankful to those who helped us. We can see that we are more inclined to help others. Because they are the ones who came. That's where I thought, oh, goodbye, we have a mindset. We want to help, it's a beautiful intention. But we have different effects of long-term go-out. We have a life. We are the ones who see our own lives. We will talk to our family, our own life. But there is a big need. We designed the operation, the business model around that premise that it should be empowering to the community. It's not us telling them what they need. It's them telling us what they need and us helping them realize. We started here in Daraita in 2016. They organized the work of the community. One person will be able to earn money and sell it. Fast forward, nine, ten years after, from scratch, individuals who formed into a small group of 12 to 15 farmers. Finally, last year, we decided to cover it. That's where we need to walk them through. The feeling that officially they are a cooperative, they need to work together. T And we, our dream is to be more inclined. They can want as a group, but they should no longer need us here. Because they can't. Those who are growing, they have to buy it, but it's too much. We will have to pay 25 cents per piece. Because we will have to pay 5 or more. They can learn to do it. They can finish their c The c But they can do it themselves. I learned a lot about the mass. It gave me better appreciation for the product and the process of how it is prepared from their organic farming practices to their actual ways of life. Even the farmers be Next time, I will not really miss you. I saw that it was difficult, how to do it, how to find the places where we are. Climate change, it has a huge effect on the climate.
