One of the noble and helpful programs initiated by the current leadership of Barangay Sasa is the palit basura program, wherein residents have the chance to get kilos of rice in exchange for their recycled garbage, such as plastics and bottles, among others.
The incumbent officials of Barangay Sasa decided to implement the program to help residents get some rice for free and throw their garbage properly instead of throwing it into the sea, especially since some puroks in Barangay Sasa are located on the coastline.
For this, the Palit basura project Barangay Sasa allocated residents 20 sacks of rice monthly in exchange for recycled materials.
Since the program has started, it already helped some 1,000 families in the barangay.
The program offers two benefits: the social benefit for the residents and the environment since the garbage will be appropriately thrown away instead of ending up in the seas.
The Noble program is something other barangays in Davao City can replicate since it is a massive help to both residents and the environment.
