Eco-Warriors Join Puerto’s Clean Up Drive

Updated: Oct 31, 2022

In line with Typhoon Odette’s rehabilitation efforts in Puerto Princesa, the City Government initiated a Clean-Up Drive inviting volunteers to participate on January 8, 2022.




With an estimated number of more than 900 truckloads of green wastes, the fastest way to clean up the roads and ensure the safety of the motorists is to conduct a community-based clean-up to hasten the process.


However, the ongoing local restrictions for COVID-19 only allow fully vaccinated citizens to participate. Thus, seven Eco-Warriors qualified as volunteers together with at least 1,000 individuals who took the initiative to join the said activity to clean up the streets from the debris of fallen trees along with its target areas.


Bancao-Bancao, the community where our Eco Warriors reside, has the greatest number of green wastes left by Odette amongst all urban barangays in Puerto Princesa, according to the City Solid Waste Management.


It was a great time for our Eco Warriors to become part of the City’s volunteer force in situations like this. They moved from place to place and worked hand-in-hand with volunteers from the Philippine National Police, Coast Guard, military, Bureau of Fire, and employees of the City Government of Puerto Princesa.


Go Eco-Warriors!

Update Video 03 : Help on Wheels Relief Program



PZC's Help on Wheels spent Php 78,000 on its third wave of help to the communities damaged by Super Typhoon Odette on December 17, 2021. A total of Php 250,000 including the first and second wave have been spent to buy canned goods, rice, vegetables, and water.


1,550 households have been reached by the project since it was activated on December 18, 2021, a day after the typhoon.


We are so thankful for all the support that we have received from all our partners and donors who selflessly extended their helping hands to assist heavily stricken communities in Puerto Princesa.


As more and more aid, especially food, are being extended to these communities, our constituents are now seeking help in the form of construction materials to assist them in rebuilding their homes.
