In a heartwarming effort to promote inclusivity, learning, and community engagement, the Supreme Student Council (SSC) of Southern Leyte State University-Maasin City Campus (SLSU-MCC), together with various student organizations, successfully conducted the outreach program entitled โHAPPY THINKERS: PLAY, LEARN, AND GROW โ An Outreach Program for PWD Children and Parentsโ on May 29, 2026, at Tagnipa Gym.
The activity gathered PWD children, their parents, student leaders, and volunteers from different campus organizations, including the Junior Social Workers Association of the Philippines SLSU-MCC Chapter (JSWAP), Circle of Public Administration Students (CPAS), PULSE Publication, Appointed Representatives of MCC Youth (ARMY), Peer Facilitatorโs Circle, and the incoming SSC officers.
The program commenced with an energetic zumba dance session, encouraging participants to engage in physical activity while fostering a fun and welcoming atmosphere. This was followed by a series of interactive games that brought excitement and laughter among the children and their families.
To further uplift the participants, snacks were distributed, providing an opportunity for everyone to share moments of joy and fellowship. The event also featured the awarding of Certificates of Appreciation to recognize the contributions and support of individuals and organizations that helped make the outreach program possible.
Through meaningful activities and community involvement, the outreach program highlighted the importance of creating inclusive spaces where children with disabilities can freely participate, learn, and enjoy experiences that contribute to their growth and well-being.
The program concluded with closing remarks delivered by SSC Vice President Hon. Merry Genesis Cantones, who expressed gratitude to all participating organizations, volunteers, parents, and children for their active involvement and support in making the initiative a success.
The outreach program served as a testament to the commitment of SLSU-MCC student leaders and organizations in promoting compassion, inclusivity, and service to the community, leaving smiles on the faces of both the children and their families.
