Pictures of Erap City's creek before Ondoy


There's a little isle on this creek. The people rely on these bridges they've made to get to real land.
Almost 50 families were squatting here.
13 of Paaralang Pantao students lived on this isle.
On rainy days, kids living here won't go to school cos the creek will be swollen and they can't cross these bridges.
Last year I asked a resident living on the isle what would happen if there was a flood.
He replied that they would lose everything. Maybe even their lives.


This family's home is one of the 1st houses we past when we walk towards Kasiglahan.
The boy is one of our students.
