Project Proposal: Extension of Children’s Activity Center
September 2007
The Children’s Activity Center was completed in May 2007 and has since then,
become the “second home” of children, youth, mothers and fathers of the
community.

Soon after, with the support from the Catholic Education Association of the
Philippines (CEAP) a community library was set-up for the basic Rs (reading
writing and arithmetic). A set of Encyclopedia and children’s books on science,
math, Pilipino and English Reading were donated by the group. The center also
received four (4) new computers donated by Outreach Asia. One unit is being
used for mothers’ & children’s training on Mother’s Class and Story Telling and
another one for office use. About 10 children and youth were given Basic
Computer literacy and they now use the computers for composing letters,
drawing, educational games and listening to stories on CDs.

The center has been the main activity place for small children coming together to
enjoy and have fun browsing and reading books, playing with toys and doing art
works, drawing, coloring and staying there until its time for them to go to school
and home. Children visit the center before going to their classes for a bowl of
soup and light snacks. For some children who just arrived from school the
center served as their relaxation area, while others do research work and
assignments using the reference books and materials. The center has served as
an extension of their home as children love to stay there the whole day because
of the warm ambience of the home and the caring attitude of the staff.

Presently, Child’s Growth Class is conducted among reproductive women
thereby learning basic knowledge and practical skills on child rearing, caring and
proper nutrition. The children enjoy each others company as well as the
sessions provided by volunteers and staff of GEMS Heart. Children are also
taught proper hygiene and sanitation integrated with cultural and values
orientation. Volunteers and staff teach new songs, the latest dance steps and
games. About 4 regular volunteer mothers help in preparing nutritious snacks
that are served during the children sessions and parents training.

With the increasing number of children and parents utilizing the center for
sessions, training and research work, often times the space is not enough to
accommodate them. When Child Growth Class with the mothers is on going,
children who would like to do research work could not anymore be
accommodated while other children who do the artwork are also crowded in the
tiny library.

We are then proposing to build an extension of the Children’s Activity Center to
accommodate the increasing number children and parents who come and make
the center their “second home”.

Project Proposal: Extension of Children’s Activity Center
September 2007
C. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The CHILDREN’S DREAM CENTER is constructed in a 166 sq. meter lot. The
Center is about 63 square meters with about 22 sq. meters utilized as session
area/space. The tiny library is about 5 sq. meters.

The center has a vacant space in front that is presently being used to grow
vegetables. This is approximately 42 sq. meters and is the area being proposed
to be the extension/expansion.

The extension will be an open type building so that the air circulation would be
free flowing from the extension area to the main door entrance of the Center.
Additional roofing, flooring, trusses and steel posts will be needed to construct
the extension. The fence on the right wing of the center will be renovated to
complete the height needed to strengthen and support the extension roof. The
front fence will also be renovated and additional hollow blocks will be laid to give
protection to children from falling. A concrete partition, about ½ meter, will be
set-up to separate a study nook of about 7-8 meters. The study corner will serve
as assignment and research area. The remaining portion of the proposed
extension will be an all-purpose – multi-purpose space for gathering, training,
meeting and group activities. The entrance will be wide open to give everyone a
warm welcome.

The steps approaching the entrance to the Center will be cemented to make it
sturdy and withstand the increased number of people who will come and visit the
center.

avoided.

GEMS Heart. A Consultant engineer will be hired to supervise the construction
of the extension of the center. The engineer will conduct regular checking of the
project’s progress of implementation per approved building extension design and
contract.

The staff of GEMS Heart will monitor the progress of the construction as well as
deliverables of the project engineer. Regular meeting with the engineer will be
conducted by the GEMS Heart Personnel and President to monitor and evaluate
the progress of the construction.

The phases of development will be properly documented as well. Status of
progress and major accomplishments will be reported to Outreach Asia Office

every month or as needed. To ensure that the funds are properly utilized, a
financial statement will be submitted upon completion of the center. Documents
to support the finances will be kept for audit and evaluation of Outreach Asia.

Organizing activities for the parents and community residents will be conducted
simultaneously while construction is on going. These organizing activities will
include the community activities for land preparation, and formulation of policies,
