WASH FOR NO BACTERIA - It is a very ordinary yet dramatic scene of children queuing to wash their hands, their faces smiling, the water streaming out of old but working gas pipes. It is not only a habit, it is an everyday, undisputable prevention, a daily routine that saves a life.
Washing of hands continues to be one of the most successful methods to prevent illness commonly experienced in schools where children are in a gathering, playing and learning together. The photo expresses the hygiene practices of the students to avoid infections and diseases in their daily activity.
Although it’s not much, the practice is part of the first line of defence.
These are not ordinary children learning hygiene; these are learning to be healthy and safety leaders to themselves and the society.
To be the true leaders in safer healthcare we should begin with education, empowerment and the necessities, such as clean water and washing hands habit.

WAITING IN THE RAIN- A young child is sitting down on a toy car in the middle of a wet and dry cracked street barefooted, waiting to get a playmate who has not arrived. The purity of the scene is highly pointed by the cruel surrounding.
This scene is more than a break in action; it is the silence in our systems, the holes in our health care and the children that are trapped in the middle. The kid is not appealing or weeping, he is just waiting and his silence is even heard louder.
Hospitals are not the only places to look to in order to improve healthcare towards safety. It is about making places where children could be sheltered, loved and never have to wait in a rain by themselves, waiting to be taken care of or not to be alone.

Work with grit, never quit
With unwavering perseverance, 63-year-old Nanay Teresita begins her day earlier than most vendors, traveling from Barangay Asia to the streets of Nauhang, Bacuyangan to sell bananas—a fruit rich in antioxidants that strengthen the immune system and fight harmful bacteria. Despite the long distance and the heavy loads, she carries, she faces each day with quiet strength and purpose. Guided by determination, she carefully arranges the bananas she patiently nurtured with her calloused hands, shaped by years of hard work. Though the earnings are modest and competition is tough, she never utters a complaint. For Nanay Teresita, selling bananas is more than a livelihood—it’s her way of putting food on the table and caring for her family. Her story is a powerful reflection of resilience, maternal devotion, and the dignity of honest labor. She is living proof that true strength lies in persistence and selfless love.
