The groundbreaking (or should I say water splashing?) of a Toilet Facility project at Mariki Elementary School in Mariki, Zamboanga City, a community on stilts devastated by the Zambo siege in 2013 was held last Marh 17, 2015. The community on stilts was totally razed by fire during the siege, with some concrete structures left like the Mariki Elementary School (though some structures need to be retrofitted or demolished due to deterioration).
The project is a collaboration of different groups, a UAP Bayanihang Arkitektura (CSR) initiative with UAP Area D and District D-2, National Housing Authority and the UAP Emergency Architects with DepEd and Barangay Mariki. Donations for materials were pledged by Gulf Canary Construction, Shera for the cementboards and roofing, and Rain or Shine for paints. Other donors are welcome to participate.
