Hello! My name is Francis Ann! I am an Accountancy student in PUP San Juan but I am actually from the Leyte Province. Specifically in Tacloban City! :D My time with the CWTS Mapping was an amazing experience! At first, I was a bit skeptical on what Mapping is and what we were going to do. Before we even tried to attend the first session, we weren’t really oriented on what it is and what to do. However, the first session was great! As expected, we were first oriented on the Basics of Mapping! It was a really fun experience and it was beyond my expectations! It was difficult at first but eventually I got the hang of it. I’m looking forward to volunteering and doing this in my free time. It’s a great contribution to the community especially to the government and non-governmental organizations in times when there is a calamity on places that are not really known. I will definitely recommend this to my family and friends! It is definitely a great help to locate, track and figure out places that are not really know and it can be a basis for organizations to locate places affected by natural disasters to contribute to the community. Like for example, the Supertyphoon Haiyan. My family and I were all lucky to survive the horrible disaster. It made me open my eyes and heart to help those people who are in need because I feel sympathy for them cause I also experienced what they experienced. As an environmentalist on my little ways, I often volunteer to help those people who were deeply affected by typhoons and disasters. Whether it be travelling with other volunteers or contributing money and goods to those affected people. Mapping can be a great help for me and other organizations to help these affected people! Looking forward to doing this and sharing this to all of the people to raise awareness and to help contribute to the community and the society! :)
