I. INTRODUCTION

What makes community worth calling the name is the group of people living in that

same area, sharing the same needs and meeting the same problems they have to deal with.

A group of people living in a same area is not considered a community without the unity

of the people in such particular place. Community is also considered as the unison among

the people to have good intentions for one another. This makes it possible for them to find

new and effective ways on how to have a better and prosperous living condition. This unity

will lead them to the development of their place which, in turn, makes their lives a lot easier

to manage.

As student of Olivarez College Tagaytay in NSTP, I am glad to help and serve my

community as well as I serve our nation. I had given all of my efforts to create a simple but

very helpful project proposal that might help my beneficiary to have a source of income or

on how they can make money growing plants at home, by growing plants and selling them

right from their own home.

II. MISSION

We all have been affected by the current COVID-19 pandemic and has put a large

number of people out of work, paralyzing both small businesses and big industries. A lot of

residents have lost their jobs due to the pandemic and no stable source of income, losing

their ability to pay for basic needs such as food, shelter, water, and medicine. With this

project, it will help the people in barangay San Guillermo, Talisay Batangas to have a source

of income by planting and selling different kinds of plants from home.

My mission as I presented my planned project to my beneficiary in San Guillermo

Talisay Batangas is to share my knowledge to others and to give them the help that they

need which is to create a job that work primarily from home.

III. GOAL

 To provide at-least a minimal source of income through planting fruit bearing trees.

 To input the beneficiary with skills and knowledge of planting.

 To teach the participants the benefits derived from planting.

VI. REFLECTION
My NSTP during this semester was quite challenging and taskful. Challenging because I
am not really a patient person and I’m not that good when it comes to teaching something
like planting. Taskful because there were lot of things to do and accomplish that made me
tire every Saturday. On the contrary from what I had expected, it gave me fun and bit of
excitement throughout.
I have also realized that these plans that I presented to my chosen beneficiary are not
easy to accomplish because it requires patience and hardwork, but because of the
willingness to help for their betterment and through God, I can accomplish all of this plans.
The three most significant learning that I got from the activity are being responsible, and it
really bid me to be more independent in my resourceful in everything I do. Having this
activity really develop my individual personality and give me the willingness to help,
creative, and resourceful because it helps me to communicate with others effectively and
most of all it helps me to become a better person. In my project I learned how to be
dependent and to become close with other people and it build me a good relationship with
others especially with the partnership, we build.
These are the value to me personally because it helps me to understand give
importance and appreciate all the things that I have. It gives me an inspiration to preserve
and to be more effective in everything I do. It gives me a knowledge of how the society
works, how to deal other people and how they live their life.
I would like to react or comment on the activity because it is my right to react and
express my feeling and thoughts, because it is my part to contribute and say something as a
student about this activity that really help to become a better person someday and to
become a good role model that the next generation will be good. It is my first time to have a
community extension service because before I get lazy, get bored when I hear that words
but now, I know what is the meaning of it. That helping others and give time can help me to
be a good citizen. The course NSTP-CWTS let me learn and experience all of these at the
same time. And for the next term, I will assure that all of the proposed plans will be carried
out to them. As a token of appreciation.
At first, I thought that NSTP was just an extra baggage in our curriculum for which
students were required to attend but I was wrong, I’ve learned many things from NSTP and
it served as an eye-opener not just for me but also for the majority of my fellow school
mates. As a first-year student of Olivarez College Tagaytay, the most important thing that
I’ve learned in the exposure was being involved in the community. I’ve learned how to help
other people who are in need and how to understand each family’s status in life.

Having this kind of activity was truly a tiring task, however, the feeling of happiness,
fulfillment and achievement after the activity was unexplainable especially when you see
the happy faces of your beneficiaries, with regards to the values that I’ve learned in the
project, I’ve learned how to be productive and punctual with all the task.
The project ‘Plant to Profit’ is successful because the project is able to generate
profits and repay the funds which were used while working on it. The computed total profit
for this project is ₱5,800.00. The customers ordered 10 grapes which costs ₱280.00 each pot
and 10 pieces of mulberries at a cost of ₱300.00 each pot. It was a great experience to do
this activity in NSTP because I experienced to have a satisfied customer and it makes me feel
good knowing someone is satisfied with the ordered products or the plants they ordered.
Aside from that, we create good relations and build solid contracts due to the trust and
satisfaction acquired from the project.
I’ve also learned that I should exercise my patience dealing with the people in the
community for example. My fondest memory in my NSTP project was when I got the chance
to meet my chosen beneficiary. I really treasured that moment because it made me feel that
she shared a part of her live to me. I’m very proud that I’m one of the students who
experienced it. It made me realize that I’m really blessed. My NSTP project was successful,
my beneficiary has learned a lot from me and also, I’ve learned from her too.
