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.
