The Manila Department of Social Welfare stated that presently, the number of institution located at National
Capital Region (NCR) is 90. Wherein 34 institutions were under private companies or celebrities, and 53 institutions were under the local government. In this large number of orphanage, the local government cannot support the needs of every institution.
Researchers group of Philippine National Construction Corporation (PNCC) found out that the Luwalhati ng
Maynila Home for the Aged located at Boystown Complex in Parang, Marikina is also one of the institutions needed a sponsors for their needs. Mrs. Juanita Adame secretary of the said institution stated that the Luwalhati ng Maynila Home for the Aged is in need of additional rooms for the elderly. Mrs. Adame also stated that as of now, the institution only have 52 rooms consisting of 4 elderly per room and 3 rooms consisting of 20 elderly per room with a total of 55 rooms which are not enough to occupy 268 elderly.
In this situation, researchers witnessed how the elderly live desperately because of lack of rooms. This situation pushed our group; the Philippine National Construction Corporation and our sponsor Mr. Cecilio Kwok Pedro to support the Luwalhati ng Maynila Home for the Aged at Boystown Complex, Parang, Marikina in a more holistic way. To give hope to the elderly and pursue the project proposal entitled “Building Extension for the Luwalhati ng
Maynila Home for the Aged”.

II. BODY OF PROPOSAL

1. INTRODUCTION
As the researchers wanted to help the Luwalhati ng Maynila Home for the Aged at Boystown Complex in Parang, Marikina, they are presenting this project proposal to help improve the status of your institution.
According to Mrs. Juanita Adame secretary of institution, the Luwalhati ng
Maynila Home for the Aged is in need of additional rooms for elderly.
To remedy this problem, they propose the building extension for your institution. This proposal details the problems, solutions and the cost of the said project.

A.BACKGROUND
According to Mrs. Juanita Adame, the problem of institution exists not only today. But this problem already exists when the total number of elderly brought to the institution suddenly increased in 2006. From 198 elderly in 2005 it increased to 248 elderly in 2006.
The scenario became their major problem. As the local government handled many institutions and they are out of budget to support those institutions in their needs because lack of sponsors, the luwalhati ng maynila home for the aged is also affected by this case.
According to Mrs. Adame, even the local government provided a budget, it is still not enough for the needs of the institution because, the only budget allotted for the luwalhati ng maynila home for the aged is only for their basic needs like food and, not for an additional rooms for the elderly. Mrs. Adame also stated that some of their basic needs depend on the donations given to them by the people or a group who visited their institution.

Golden Acres Philippines is a one – hectare DSWD home for the aged and elderly facility that cares for senior citizens aged 60 and above. These old people were usually those are neglected, abandoned, left alone and in need of shelter, caring and food.
Basic needs were being provided by the DSWD through government funds.
Thus, it is not enough for the needs of every elderly. Golden Acres is yet another institution looking for people who are willing to help the institution and providing hope for the elderly.
As the researchers witnessed the problem of your institution, building extension would be better because elderly is in need of more rooms. In this project, they will be more comfortable in living. It may also prevent the transmission of the disease because if your institution has enough rooms, we will separate the elderly with disease from the elderly without disease.

Luwalhati ng Maynila Home for the Aged”. The building will measure 2400 sq.m which can occupy more than 268 elderly.
The design of this building will be:
One storey
No divisions; only hand rails so that elderly can walk safely inside the building.
With 4 comfort rooms
Inside the building is:
Single bed with drawers more than 268

2. OBJECTIVES
If your institution will have the extension building, the elderly will live in a more comfortable ways.
