The GK PInasuan Village in Barangay San Miguel, Hernani, Eastern Samar was turned over to 59 families on September 25, 2005. It is located in a sloping area that is 100 meters away from the main highway and 500 meters away from the shoreline. Their main source of livelihood are mostly farming and fishing.
The residents of GK Pinasuan have been struggling with accessing clean water for their daily use. Currently, the only water source existing in their area is 300 meters away from the village, which they have to walk to everyday in order to fetch water. The supply of water here depends on the season - it may overflow during the rainy season, but might be insufficient during the dry season. In order to fulfill their need for water, they have to head to another sitio or barangay to fetch water.
Water is a basic need that each community must have access to in order to have a better quality of life. Through this project, we aim to raise PHP 232,470.00 in order to build a proper water facility within the GK Pinasuan Village, where they no longer have to walk 300 meters in order to fetch water. This will also enable them to expand their existing water intake box and pipelines to be able to accommodate more water sources.
Support 59 Families in Barangay San Miguel in Hernani, Eastern Samar rebuild their water system.

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 restoration of the water system began in June 2022 and was completed in November 2022. During the construction of the water system, the residents faced difficulties. The delivery of the materials was difficult because the community is situated in a sloping location, and the village's main water supply is 300 meters away. The volatility of the weather and the frequent rains made this more difficult for the volunteers and workers because the main road is slippery during the rainy season. These hardships, however, did not deter the inhabitants. Such obstacles motivated them to finish the renovation of the water infrastructure. And their efforts paid off as a result of their commitment and tenacity.
The water flow becomes enough and constant with the help of the two concrete water tanks and big pipelines for water intake and distribution. The locals won't have to worry about access to clean water anymore. It will be very beneficial to them in their daily needs.
Residents in Barangay San Miguel, Hernani, Eastern Samar, would like to commend FedEx and other stakeholders for making their dream a reality. It will be no longer difficult for them to acquire clean water; this water system will enable them to establish a better quality of life.
May your generosity grow, and together we can develop better communities.
