In today’s fast-paced world, where time is a precious commodity, finding efficient ways to earn, learn, and develop new skills is essential. In line with this, Solution Ecosystems Activator (SEA) Inc., in partnership with the Barangay Local Government Unit (BLGU) of Jelicuon Este, New Lucena, Iloilo organized a livelihood training on October 27, 2023. The focus of the training was non-bake food production, led by Mrs. Rosanna P. Constantino, the Municipal Coordinator of SEA Inc. She guided the participants through the creation of various non-bake foods, including Pitsi-Pitsi, Kutsinta, Tuna Pie, Buchi, and Puto Pizza.

The training proved to be a success, with participants creating 15 pieces each of Buchi and Puto Pizza, 30 pieces of Tuna Pie, and 28 pieces of Sapin-Sapin. These products were shared among the members and Barangay Officials.

Throughout the training, the participants exhibited genuine enthusiasm for learning new skills, visibly enjoying the hands-on experience. With the support of Barangay Officials, the activity became a resounding success. Mrs. Rosanna P. Constantino and Angela L. Betita expressed their gratitude to all participants, encouraging them to sustain the skills they acquired.

In response, the members formed an association after the training to ensure the continuity of the livelihood project. They started selling “kakanin” every other day within their community and nearby schools. The members attribute their transformed way of living from individual earners to a unified group. With this, they are now economically productive and socially involved in the community. According to them, SEA Inc. not only provided an opportunity to earn money but also fostered unity among the members, making their livelihood project a sustainable success.
