8 Months Later, Still Growing. Still in Action. 💙🌱

What began just hours after our 34th Induction Ceremony continues to grow—literally and purposefully.

On January 4, 2026, JCI Catbalogan Balud, together with our partner agencies, planted mangroves through Project Bakawan, turning our commitment to service and environmental protection into something that could take root and thrive.

Now, on its 8th month monitoring, we return to check, care for, and document the progress of the mangroves we planted. 🌱

Because planting is only the beginning. True environmental stewardship means coming back, monitoring growth, protecting what we have planted, and making sure that our small efforts today can become a lasting contribution for the generations to come.

From an induction ceremony to muddy shores, from promises to actual action—Project Bakawan reminds us that service does not end when the program does.

This is what it means to remain Still in Action.

Earth’s great treasure lies in human personality—in people who choose to care, to act, and to sustain what they have started.

SUSTAIN THE FUTURE: Financial Literacy for Sustainable Leadership 💡

JCI Catbalogan Balud successfully attended the two-day ONT-hosted training, “SUSTAIN THE FUTURE: Financial Literacy for Sustainable Leadership,” conducted on August 19 and 26, 2026.

The training provided valuable insights on the importance of financial literacy, responsible financial management, and sustainable decision-making—essential skills for leaders who aim to build organizations that are not only effective today, but also prepared for the future.

As Jaycees, leadership goes beyond creating programs and serving communities. It also means learning how to manage resources wisely, make informed decisions, and build systems that can thrive and create lasting impact.

We are grateful for this opportunity to learn, grow, and strengthen our capacity as leaders committed to sustainable and purposeful service.

Sustain the future. Lead with purpose. Manage with wisdom.🌱

On September 1–2, 2026, JCI Catbalogan Balud Inc., in partnership with SSU-Psychology Society and the Psychosocial Peer Support Organization (PPSO), successfully conducted Oplan Kaagapay: Psychological First Aid Training.

The two-day training brought together individuals who were equipped with essential knowledge and practical skills to listen with empathy, respond with compassion, and provide appropriate psychological support to those experiencing distress or crisis. 🤝🫂

This initiative reminds us that sometimes, making a difference begins with simply being present, knowing how to listen, and knowing how to help.

Our heartfelt gratitude to our valued partners and leaders:

SSU University President, Dr. Redentor Palencia
SSU-USC President, Kaven Nuñez
PPSO President, Mark Brian Pacoma

And to all our trainers, participants, volunteers, and partners who made this meaningful initiative possible—thank you for helping us build a more caring, resilient, and mentally supportive community. 💙

Learn. Listen. Support. Empower.
Because through Kaagapay, we remind everyone that no one has to face difficult moments alone. 🫂✨

On August 31, 2026, JCI Catbalogan Balud Inc., under the Beyond Prison Walls National Program of JCI Philippines, in partnership with PAFCPIC Samar, through its Manager Mr. Philip Lominoque, and the Province of Samar, headed by Hon. Sharee Ann T. Tan, officially turned over the Baskog Paglaum: Health Within Reach Health Clinic to the Catbalogan City District Jail.

This project is a testament to what meaningful partnerships and collective action can achieve. More than a facility, it is a step toward providing accessible healthcare, dignity, and hope to our Persons Deprived of Liberty (PDLs).

Our heartfelt gratitude to the Catbalogan City District Jail administration and personnel for welcoming this initiative and for their continued commitment to the welfare of the PDLs.

A special thanks to our Project Chair, VP Aika Galban Camarillo, and Project Co-Chair, Engr. Victor Samboy Franz, for their dedication and leadership in bringing this project to life. 💙

To all our partners, volunteers, and supporters, thank you for helping us make health and hope within reach.
