Barangay Kanlurang Palale is a secluded community located near the mountains of Tayabas City, Quezon Province. It is divided into seven (7) sub-communities or “purok” with 45 households. The main source of income of the residents here is farming and selling household items, such as mugs, buckets, basins, and kitchen utensils.
For the past 20 years, the residents have been enduring the rough road leading to their barangay. Its lack of lighting fixtures has made it even difficult for them to use this road, especially at night when it’s pitch black. Because Barangay Kanlurang Palale is located at a higher terrain, it has become an everyday challenge for them and risk to their safety to pass through here, more so in times of emergency.
Recently, the LGU of Tayabas City Installed solar lights in the pathways leading to Purok 2, Purok 3, Purok 4, Purok 5, and Purok 7 for the safety of the residents. Unfortunately, the installation of solar lights leading to Purok 1 and Purok 6 has not yet been completed due to insufficient funding. These remaining two areas are relatively more remote compared to the other communities and the people who live here are still experiencing the challenges of having an underdeveloped pathway on a day-to-day basis.
The residents of Purok 1 and Purok 6 are still hoping that the road to their communities will be much safer through solar lights and that their enduring of the dark road for more than 20 years will come to an end. The installation of the solar light for the two communities would cost Php 59,974.00. Help us and be their source of hope by raising funds for the residents of Kanlurang Palale for their installation of solar light.

When an act of kindness multiplies, it helps more people. Everyone can help, no matter how small or big. As long as it comes from the heart, we can persuade more people to help. Financial scarcity is not an obstacle to helping those who are in need.
The installation of solar streetlights began on April 5, 2024, and was completed on May 4, 2024. The solar lighting construction encountered persistent delays caused by frequent rain in the area. However, with a stroke of luck and almost four weeks of favorable weather, the villagers completed the installation of solar lights.
Eight solar lights were successfully installed in Barangay Kanlurang Palale, with one placed in the barangay hall and one in each purok from purok 1 to purok 7. The community members were overjoyed and deeply grateful for this much-needed improvement. For years, they endured dark and unsafe roads, believing it was impossible to light the way due to a lack of funding from the LGU. Thankfully, their prayers were heard, and now light illuminates their paths, bringing safety and hope to their village.
On behalf of the residents, we express our deepest gratitude to Yinson Holding Berhad and all the kind-hearted individuals involved. Your support has not gone unnoticed, and the residents of Barangay Kanlurang Palale are truly grateful. The installation of solar lights has made a remarkable difference, offering well-lit pathways through the eco-friendly street lights.
