JULIA CAMPBELL AND FRIENDS

March 2007. In preparation for the coming of
the US Ambassador Kristie Kenney to Donsol
Sorsogon. Julia and her friends came to the
e-kubo: Environment Center, in Dancalan, Donsol
Sorsogon and helped paint the Environment Center.
With them are the youth of Dancalan and the
SOS V4E ( the Scouts of St. Joseph Vounteers
For Environment).

It was planned earlier that the good ambassador will visit the place, hence excitement and fun. The Environment Center: Bahay kalikasan or the e-kubo will be blessed/ inaugurated with our special guest: the US Ambassador Kristie Kenney.

This Center is a project of the SOS V4E and funded by Thomas Waters Foundation through the Peace Corps. Ms. Julia Campbell was responsible for soliciting the fund with the environment group SOS V4E as the lead group.

The Local Government Unit of Donsol ( Municipal Level) gave Seventy Thousand Pesos ( Php 70,000.00) for the project and the Barangay Council of Dancalan donated the lot.

The dream of Julia is for the people, especially the youth to have a venue for Environment Education. In fact, she with another PCV is preparing for the modules that will be used in the Environment Education. Julia’s noble dream became a reality; Fifty (50) persons, participated in the Youth Environment Seminar (April 12-15) held in the Center: the e-kubo. This seminar is a facilitated/funded by the WWF Donsol led by Mr. Ruel Pine.

SOS V4E Youth and other youth participated and enjoyed this activity. More activities will follow.
