What contributions have you made to your country, city or town to make it a better place for everyone?

Answer 1

1. Done manual labor for Gawad Kalinga, building homes for the poor (on top of gathering the cash to build the house!)

2. Continues service as a Scoutmaster with the Boy Scouts of the Philippines troop in the school near my home. Leads my scouts to "Do A Good Turn Daily".

3. Works as a Red Cross volunteer.

4. Done some TV commercials (through our company) on a pro bono (no income ) basis to help save the environment (Haribon TV commercials), etc.

5. Leads, or helps lead fundraising events for colleagues or industry members needing huge amounts for their hospitalization or treatment of some diseases like cancer, etc.

Answer 2

First of all, I pay my taxes including business permits etc. which provide a certain percentage to the country's coffers. Not much but I hope it counts towards making the country a bit financially stable. That is, if the government uses taxpayers' money wisely. Then, I don't do drugs. I stay away from anything that will give our country, my city and the barangay that I live in a bad repute. I throw my trash in its proper bin so that garbage collectors won't have difficulty collecting it. And lastly, I do my share of cleaning up my space (in-between neighbors). Does all the above count as my contribution to making the nation a better place for everyone?
