The people of Sulaco are hard-working and resourceful. They live
with shortages of clean water (Sr. Joan has remarked that showering
with brown water is not one of her favorite parts of the experience),
shortages of electricity, medical care, safe food, communication and
transportation systems, and basic human services. The people of Sulaco,
especially the women and children, learned new skills during the creation
of building materials for the nutrition center. They learned to create
roofing tiles and concrete blocks for construction. Many simple, sturdy
homes have been built using these newly-learned techniques. |
