DLSU Volunteer Program

About the Org (Taken from Org Website):

The Lasallian Family can look back at a long legacy of volunteerism, of competent and compassionate graduates and teachers, Lasallians who took a different path, who chose to devote an important part of their lives by being with the poor.

In 1994, the Lasallian Volunteer Program was set up by the District to formally recognize the volunteer spirit and initiatives which had expanded over the years.

Since the, batches of graduates have been trained and sent off to teach and serve in La Salle schools and poor communities all over Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. Wherever these LaSallian Volunteers (LSVs) were sent, they vowed to share a human and Christian education with the young and the poor in their everyday ministry.

Today, communities of LaSallian Volunteers are found in poor mission areas where there are pressing needs, primarily in the education of children and youth-at-risk. Graduates, teachers and staff members from Lasallian schools make up these LSV communities. The LSV communities enter the mission area with a set goal of initiating and implementing a sustainable educational program for youth-at-risk in the area.

The educational programs introduced are eventually turned over to the care of the community within a specified period of time, thus empowering the mission area in program conceptualization, implementation and evaluation
