Load the trucks

Phase one of our project to replace the Badjao village walkway (bridge) is finished... all the wood we have cut down is complete, treated and ready to go. Everything that can be done at the farm is over and we're ready to start phase two, the actual building of the bridge! 

Three huge trucks came here to the farm where the safe home is based, and with the help of a group of Badjao men we have loaded everything on to the trucks. It was a huge task and heavy work loading everything on the three trucks. The trucks then transported all the wood to the Badjao village where it was all unloaded and the local government provided a guard for all the wood. 

It was great to see the wood arriving at the village after months of work. Everyone was excited to see it, knowing that work on their bridge would soon begin. Many of the locals helped with the unloading of the trucks at their village – it was good to see the teamwork and joy on everyone’s faces. I was given the

task of counting and checking all the wood was loaded and unloaded safely and that it all made it to its destination.

Back soon with the start of the construction work! To see more pics, click here
