Community Volunteers Restore Flood-Damaged Classrooms

Volunteers and parents across the country have stepped up to help clean up classrooms left covered in mud after floods and landslides wreaked havoc.

In many schools, deposits of mud and silt had rendered classrooms unusable, but community members, including parents, former students and local volunteers, mobilized quickly. With determination and solidarity, they scrubbed floors, cleared debris, wiped surfaces and restored order, aiming to make the learning spaces safe and ready for students again.

Their effort was more than just cleaning: it symbolized hope and resilience in the face of disaster, helping bring a sense of normalcy back to educational institutions battered by natural calamities.
