Photo was captured using an iPhone 8 Plus and edited in Adobe Lightroom CC App. This was during our CIVAC yesterday.

CIVAC (Civic Action) is one of the program of the local government here in our town. Its about visiting and bringing services to all 68 barangays atleast once a year.

Do you know that most of the people in the far barangays gets to have themselves checked by a doctor once a year, and that is during CIVAC only.

The fare to get to the town proper cost about ₱200-300 ($4-$6) for a roundtrip, and some of them only earns about $2 or even less in a day. And this $2 will be spent on food for the whole family.

An average of 200 patients is seen each day during CIVAC, that's about 2-3 minutes per consultation in order to accommodate all of them.
