  Scholars sign covenant
with RAFI, City Savings
   
 

One hundred five scholars of the Young Minds Academy (YMA) Season 2 signed a covenant with the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc. and City Savings Bank (CSB) last December 1 at the Eduardo Aboitiz Development Studies Center (EADSC) in Lopez Jaena St. Cebu City.

   

As a youth development program, YMA aims to shape the youth to become responsible citizens of the community. It also aims to breed accountable-leaders and successors in the future.

The Young Minds scholarship was granted on a team basis. After tough screenings and panel interview, five teams qualified from Generation 1 (ages 21-30), ten from Generation 2 (17-20 years old), and six from Generation 3 (12-16 years old).

"Be part of the solutions. Stop putting the blame on others," said Evelyn Nacario Castro, RAFI-EADSC Executive Director, in her opening message. She added that the youth has a dynamic passion in uplifting this nation.

"It is important to equip the youth so that they will be prepared in coping up with the challenge life brings,' said Harry Abellana, AVP Marketing of City Savings Bank. He also said that CSB will continue to support programs for youth development.

With the theme public health, classes of the academy will begin on January and will end on August 2008. Classes are scheduled on Saturdays, holidays and sometimes on Sundays.
