When @walkofhope and Bamboo Nation collide : building a Bamboo HUB ...

I posted on August 30th the event that Hive account@flabbergast-art attended, the Bamboo Nation 3, where both delegations from Indonesia and the Philippines gathered in Cebu to showcase their architectural bamboo structures and designs. Hive account@walkofhope was invited to showcase our bamboo art and music through Hive account@flabbergast-art and #tataydagsa.

Let me show you their victory party photo shoots after their event in Bantayan Island then i will proceed to the meaty part. These images were downloaded from Hive account@flabbergast-art's facebook page.

Far left is Hive account@flabbergast-art and the rest were the bamboo nation guys.

Ok, after all that modelling of their skimboards, I for one is very excited of Hive account@walkofhope's future plans.

Creating Livelihood for our 30 scholar students in Kabankalan City, our latest advocacy

To do this, we will be having bamboo crafts and innovation workshops for 30 students, instead of 60, the overall scholar students for Ikthus Foundation. This is family owned where the yearly donations of 2.5M pesos was decreased to 1.5M. An earlier mismanagement of funds occured and has been solved. To continue these kids scholarships, their parents now have to shoulder their extra needs, but because they are unable to fund their kids, a decision was made to help the kids learn from Hive account@walkofhope 2 days workshop. There is a market for bamboo crafts from what we have started in Bayawan City last May.

After this workshop in September 15-16, the parents will in turn have another income-generating tasks already being arranged by the CREATIVES of Kabankalan City.

A Bamboo Hub in Kabankalan City

Remember the bamboo nation guys?

Their head has been collaborating with Hive account@flabbergast-art and the Creatives of Kabankalan City to build this structure as a hub for the future Bamboo Crafts and Innovations. As we have already an architect to do the design, who offered to help create this HUB. All I have seen previously were of structures with bamboo designs...what they will be making, it's not finalised as yet. But the soonest, Hive account@flabbergast-art will send them to me once he have them.

Does that sound cool?

Anyone who wants a skimboard can buy one in Cebu, Philippines. But for a personalised one, Hive account@flabbergast-art can make you one.
