Could this dilapidated three room building within the limits of San Roque Elementary School in Tanauan, Leyte be the next location for a Volunteer for the Visayans (VFV) Community Center? With over ninety regular program recipients in the area, VFV strongly believes that Tanauan, Leyte could and should be the next location for its community center expansion and with a little bit of help from Department of Education officials, could be made possible by as early as the first quarter of 2012.
The building, which has been abandoned for many years is a total eye sore for the school and the nearby community, not to mention an immediate health and safety hazard for the local Elementary school children.
After being granted permission, VFV hopes to renovate the entire building in order to create two brand new classrooms for the school as well as creating a small community center and satellite office so that it may closely monitor and nurture more sustainable social welfare projects for the surrounding area.
