Day 035:
Today, we went to a certain barangay in San Juan to give an first-time, experimental, interactive, Public Health Lecture (PHL). The response, both by our partners and our participants were overwhelming.
The organizers thought we did this on a regular basis, and the "show" we put on was something we’ve perfected over many tries. They thought we were veterans! The participants all went home with lessons learned, smiling faces, a few bars of soap, and new skills that could save their lives.
Preparing the modules, practicing the routines, getting the materials were all toxic (especially with everything else we had on our plate). But I am damn proud to have been a part of that activity.
There are just things that we do… that makes us so proud to be a part of… that we could no longer imagine ourselves doing otherwise.
