SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS
 The proponents were assigned at a community in Sitio Tomas to
identify the problems and challenges that the community is facing. The social
work student went to Sitio Tomas to conduct community organizing last
November 30, 2023. Based on interviews, observation and evaluation were able
to gather data. As we enter in the community we try to approach first the
Barangay Captain to get their approval to conduct the said task.
They are accomodating and very hospitable. They help us to drive
right away in the exact sitio safely. We try to act as a strong and confident
community organizer to gather data using the assigned tools. To gather around
for us to have an easy interview for them. And we introduced ourselves for the
formalities and get that opportunity to conduct the FGD. And as we leave the
community they make sure to us that we are always welcome to comeback
around.

ASSESSMENT
Sitio Tomas Espiritu is located in Brgy. Lulen, Tupi, South Cotabato. It
was known and called as "KALFISUT" which in B'laan means balimbing fruit but,
after a long time it was identified as Sitio Tomas Espiritu which is from the name
of the owner of said sitio. The tribes of the people are B'LAAN tribe which has
nineteen (19) households, seventeen (17) families and fifty eight (58) population.
Based on what we noticed when visiting their site, we found out that their
population is small because they are quite far from the town center. Before
starting the activity, we talked and made friends with each individual there so it
was the beginning of our interaction that will help our purpose in their site, to
interview and observe in their place.
In the middle of our conversation, we started asking questions about
some of the problems that exist in their site that affect their daily lives. We found
out that this is about the lack of their water (drinking) which is still taken from their
other barangay/sitio. Other than that, the water they use for washing, cleaning or
bathing comes from the nearby spring in their area.
Abraham Maslow's Theory Heirarchy of Needs is the one that conforms
to the people of Sitio Tomas Espiritu where it is stated in that theory that one of
the human needs is water.
If action is not taken or attention is paid to the problem facing their sitio,
they will still have difficulty in getting water from the other barrio and the suffering
will continue which can also cause them to get sick or have issues regarding their
health due to the lack of clean water.

The proposed project is the water tank to install in their community as
a solution that could be help in children, families and the community in
general to lessen their burden in terms of their source of water. Although there
are few pitcher pump available but it’s not safe to drink. This gives an idea on
tye severity of the issue and how important it is to provide water resources
since it is essential to the community.
Additionally, it is also equally important to practice the use of recycling
and reusing products to enhance resourcefulness of one's individuality.
Hence, the proponents have come up with the idea of creating products that

solicitation to earn for project funds that eventually result in a successful
installation of water tank in the community.

III. Project Description/Design

The proposed project is the installation of a water tank. To address the
deficiency of water resources in the community, the proponents planned on
generating funds through solicitations and collecting recyclable materials and
transforming it to recycled products and selling these products to the market. The
project would be implemented by distributing first the solicitation to sponsors,
followed by the collection of recyclable materials from the students and transforming
it to marketable recycled products such as drawstring, bracelets, head turbans and
wallet. When all the distributed solicitations are collected.
The scope and limitation is within the assigned community. Through this
project people in the community will benefits to have a drinking water supply. It is
also guaranteed that every resident has a clean water to drink and use instead of
