The BAT (Build-a-Toilet) Project
The BAT Project is an on-going program and San Miguel de Mayumo CUSA’s first. SMdM CUSA is
aware that school administrators are often confronted by budgetary challenges that they learn to
navigate by prioritizing necessities in their respective environments. Understandably, books,
classrooms and chairs take the top spots on the list of requirements. The toilet, the most basic of
sanitary facilities, is often relegated to the bottom of the list, if it ever gets on it.
Ill-maintained and inaccessible toilets in public schools pose health hazards to students.
This must be every adult’s concern, especially parents and teachers. SMdM CUSA considers this an
urgent need that must be addressed. Within its first three years of existence, SMdM CUSA constructed
11 toilets in six public schools in San Miguel: Bantog Elementary School, San Miguel Elementary
School, Balaong Elementary School, Salakot High School, Batasan Elementary School, and Paliwasan
Elementary School.
The following public schools benefited from SMdM CUSA's BAT Project:
