Aling Janneal's Ukay-Ukay!

On the last day of our NSTP, we were required to do a family-day activity and have an ukay-ukay.



Aling Janneal's Ukay-Ukay


Together with some of my blockmates, we were assigned to manage and arrange the ukay-ukay area. The preparation was brief since we were only informed a week before the event. We were procrastinating and a lot of ideas was flowing and coming out from the group. In the end, we decided to do the event simple and followed the rules gave to us by Ate Selyn, our coordinator. I was really excited and a bit anxious of what was going to happen.





The idea of the ukay-ukay we had was to sell Php35 for a pack of 3-5 clothes. It was sort of pre-arranged ukay-ukay where for every five minutes, groups of five mothers were allowed to come to the table. Some mothers were considerate and organized, while others were hurling and opening the presegregated plastic bags of clothes. In conclusion of the event, all the mothers were essentially happy as they go home and give their new acquirements to their children.


I may say that it was a job well done, because aside from the happy mothers, our table was left totally empty!
