Sample:

Community Problem: Severe flooding during raining days due to blocked drainages
Vicinity: Lapiz St., Oleander Village, Brgy. Pulo, Quezon City
Campaign Name: Anti-flooding Movement
Type of Social Media Used: Blogging
Website Used: WordPress

What will be the content of your social media site?

It will contain pictures of the flooded area during rainy days. It will also contain pictures of the drainages
that are blocked with garbage. I also plan to update it every once in a while. Anyone who views the site
will be able to comment on theses updates.

Why did you choose that type of social media?

People in my community are avid readers of blogs. Most of them follow several blogs that concern the
community.

Why did you choose that website?

WordPress unlike other blogging platforms, has more serious feel to it.
