The following video is an annual event held in Davao City with a competition between the barangay responders. These volunteers are often
- self taught,
- self funded,
- self organized,
and make use of the limited resources they have on hand, at times without the support of their local barangay (town leadership).
Not only have all of them responded to emergencies in their communities, they also know how to have fun.
It was an honor to get to know these dedicated volunteers and true heroes. They are role models for others around the world.
Additional information about this competition can be found in an earlier posting at Competition Brings People Closer.
