On September 13, 2025, Reading is Vital by Vital Signs, in partnership with RAFi Microfinance and AMSA WVSU through the Kaagapay Outreach, was successfully held at the Mambusao Civic Center in Mambusao, Capiz.

The activity gathered AMSA volunteers, RAFi Microfinance representatives, licensed medical doctors, and residents of Mambusao for a meaningful day of learning and community engagement. Through this outreach, participants took part in book reading activities while also gaining valuable insights on proper hygiene practices and overall health awareness.

This regional initiative highlighted the importance of literacy and health education, fostering a more informed and empowered community.

Eye health remains an essential part of overall well-being, with awareness and early care playing a key role in preventing vision problems. The need for accessible information, proper eye care practices, and community-based education continues to be important.

In line with this commitment, Vital Signs brought to Brgy. Estancia Covered Court, Kalibo, Aklan, last August 9, 2025, promoting eye health awareness, sharing practical care tips, and supporting a more informed and health-conscious community.

Taking care of your vision didnโ€™t have to be expensive! Last August 9, 2025, in Kalibo, Aklan, we shared simple, affordable ways to keep eyes healthy and vision clear.

This regional initiative was open to all residents of Kalibo, because everyone deserved access to better eye care without breaking the bank. ๐Ÿ’™

On April 17, 2026, the 4th and last series of Reading is Vital: Book Reading and Hygiene Drive under its second season was held at the Iloilo City Public Library, located in Brgy. Fajardo, Jaro.

AMSA WVSU participated in a Medical and Dental Mission held at the Brgy. Claudio Castilla El-98 Multi Purpose Hall in partnership with Brgy. Claudio Castilla last March 21, 2026.

Five volunteers worked alongside three resident physicians, one dentist, and one assistant dentist to provide essential healthcare services to the community. The mission catered to 40 patients including 15 medical consultations, 12 dental services, and 13 optical services.

Additionally, Health Awareness and Educational Lecturettes were done with Vital Signs Publicationโ€™s MEDucate initiative, represented by VS Member Miya Ocayo and Jo Andrei Bonite.

AMSA extends its gratitude to Brgy. Claudio Castilla and all healthcare professionals who made this collaborative service activity possible. The organization remains committed to community engagement and accessible healthcare for all.

Held last March 27, 2026, Reading is Vital Series 3 brought together children from Brgy. Fajardo, Iloilo City at the Iloilo City Public Library for a day of book reading and a hygiene-focused activity.

Storybooks created by the publication, titled โ€œLuna and the Bad Loboโ€ and โ€œEsang, the Brave,โ€ were presented by Virna Barsanalina and Yun Bayotas, respectively. To further enrich learning, the children participated in interactive game of identifying body organs. They were also given coloring materials, worksheets, and maze challenges as take-home activities to encourage continued creativity and problem-solving.

A handwashing activity under the hygiene drive was also conducted, teaching proper handwashing techniques using soap and water to promote basic health practices among children.

Launched in 2024, this marks the second season of the initiative, which aims to foster a love for reading while strengthening word skills and integrating health education.

Rabies remains a serious yet preventable public health concern in the Philippines, as animal bites, delayed wound care, and failure to seek timely vaccination continue to place lives at risk. Misconceptions regarding first aid and treatment may further contribute to avoidable deaths. The need for accurate information, responsible pet ownership, and prompt medical action remains essential.

In line with this commitment, Vital Signs launched Project MEDucate | Rabies: Bite Back with Knowledge on August 22, 2025, at WVSU La Paz Campus to raise awareness on rabies prevention, promote proper bite wound first aid, discuss the importance of post-exposure vaccination, and empower the community to respond quickly and responsibly after animal bites.

Mental health in the workplace remains an important public health concern, as stress, burnout, anxiety, and poor work-life balance continue to affect productivity, relationships, and overall well-being. Stigma and limited access to support may also prevent many individuals from seeking help. The need for open conversations, supportive environments, and mental wellness education remains essential.

In line with this commitment, Vital Signs launched Project MEDucate: Mental Health in the Workplace on August 22, 2025, at WVSU La Paz Campus to promote awareness on workplace mental health, discuss stress management strategies, encourage healthy coping mechanisms, and empower individuals to prioritize well-being in professional spaces.
