I. Project Title: Renovation of the Dead Road Association

KISSEA, Manggahan Talomo Chapel

II. Rationale:

The project is meant to supply repairs and comfort and convenience

to the chapel of Maggahan, Talomo Davao City, and to repair its signage

for better recognition. For the repairs, the group will need paint, wood,

nails, new electric fans, new fluorescent lights, polyethylene foams, and

few furniture and cloth decors. The old chapel is not in a good state which

makes it hard to conduct daily religious meetings. For the signage, the

group will also need paint to make the content of the signage clear. These

things will provide convenience and recognition for the people in the

community.

III. Project Objectives:

The first part of our project is to give recognition to our assigned

community, Dead Road Manggahan in Talomo. The group plans to repair

the signage of the village. People around could easily know the entrance

of the village with newly repainted signage that will be located exactly

beside the street entering the little community. Giving recognition to our

assigned place is very important because with this, we will be able to

make the village exist.

The second part of our project aims for the renovation of the

community chapel. Meetings are constantly held there and the people

involved would likely benefit from the convenience and comfort that our

group can give after the success of our renovation project. Our objectives

for choosing the chapel to be renovated are not only for the benefit of the

people who meet to pray and celebrate mass. A lot of people would be

enticed to visit. Another purpose of the renovation of the chapel is to

ensure the safety and security of the chapel structure. As for what our

group had observed, the chapel is not really in a good state right now, the

frameworks and wood that build are not fitted properly, head of the nails

are sticking out, and one side of the wood would likely collapse. Also in

time of sunny and rainy weather, the chapel is not in the state of securing

the physical and emotional conditions of the villagers.

IV. Expected Output:

Within five Saturdays, Everything is accomplished. The signage is

newly painted, thus other people will be able to recognize the place. The

chapel will also possess more durable electric fans and PE foam, which is

a good heat insulator, will be attached to the roof. Both of this will give

comfort to the people occupying it, especially at hot seasons. The chapel

will also have more lights, one at the center, another for the priest and

readers, and a small light for the altar. And finally, the windows, walls and

the door will be properly framed, thus furnishing and painting will go

smooth, making the chapel as good as new. Cloth decors such us window

curtains and table mantle will also be seen.

At last, everything is set with the cooperation of the group

members, the purok leader and the volunteered workers from the

community. Everyone will be gathered for a celebration, a mass will be

held in the chapel and snacks will be shared for everybody. The achieved

project is expected to help the residents grow closer to one another, and

grow closer to God.

Attendance of the group members and its cooperation to achieve

fast and efficient implementation of the project

Availability of the materials needed for the repair and beautification

of the chapel and the signage such as paint, wood, ceiling fans,

Creative ideas from the group members

Active participation of the community members, that is to be

headed by the purok leader, through helping the group during the

repair and beautification.

Project implementation should be finished within the five Saturday

working time of the group.

VII. People Involved:

Community Leader – the community leader will assist our group

throughout the implementation of the project. She will be able to gather

residents who are willing to volunteer in imparting man power in repairing

the dilapidated parts of the chapel. The community leader will also assess

the development of the chapel.

Group Members – The group members who propose this project will

act as supervisors in repairing the dilapidated parts of the chapel. The

group members will also participate in the repairing of the chapel. Group

members made do carpentry, painting, cleaning, designing and planning

and can lend some carpentry tools that could be use in the project

implementation. There will also be specific people who will be assigned in

gathering the data of the available prices of the materials needed for this

project. There will also be some group members who are assigned in

hiring workers to help us in this project.

Residents – The residents of the purok, Nansita Makiling, may

volunteer in imparting man power in repairing the damage part of the

chapel.

Workers – The workers hired in repairing the chapel will be the main

source of man power. They will be the ones who will work in difficult jobs

in the repairing of the chapel.

VIII. Monitoring/Evaluation:

In assessing the impact of our project to the residents, we will conduct an interview

to those who are living near the renovated chapel and signage. Two people will conduct the

interview and use the information gathered to tell whether our project is successful of not.

If the result of the interview is good, then we can say that our project is successful.

We will also be holding a mass in the chapel in order for us and the residents to

experience the newly developed church and to determine whether it is better, more

comfortable and convenient than before. With this, we will also be able to know whether

the polyethylene foams that we attached to the roofs and the electric fans are able to

control the temperature of the rooms especially at hot seasons.

Also, we will be evaluating whether the signage is highly visible even at night in

order for all the people to recognize the place.

And to overall evaluation will lie on the residents of Manggahan, Talomo whether

they will appreciate our efforts and the results of the said project.
