Celebrating the Launch of Barangay Conel’s Reading Center: A Milestone for General Santos City
On August 8, 2024, the Barangay Hall Compound in Barangay Conel was abuzz with excitement as the community came together to celebrate a significant milestone: the launch of the Barangay Conel Reading Center. This event marks a pivotal moment in the quest to promote literacy and education in General Santos City, and the Kiwanis Club of SarGen Illustris was honored to be part of this remarkable occasion.
The celebration was graced by the presence of the City Vice Mayor, Hon. Rosalita T. Nunez, MNSA, Ph.D., who delivered a powerful and inspiring message of support. As a seasoned educator, Vice Mayor Nunez emphasized the vital importance of reading, urging everyone to contribute to the collective effort to elevate the nation’s reading levels. Her words resonated deeply with the attendees, highlighting the transformative power of education and the critical role that reading plays in personal and community development.
The highlight of the event was the ribbon-cutting ceremony, led by Vice Mayor Nunez, which officially opened the Barangay Reading Center. This new facility promises to be a beacon of learning, providing access to a wealth of reading materials and resources that will benefit the entire community.
The Kiwanis Club of SarGen Illustris played an active role in the event, demonstrating their unwavering commitment to community service. The club provided delicious snacks for the preschool children in attendance, adding a touch of joy and celebration to the day. This gesture reflects the club’s dedication to supporting the youngest members of the community and ensuring that events like these are memorable and enjoyable for all.
Beyond the festivities, the Kiwanis Club of SarGen Illustris is deeply involved in supporting the General Santos City Public Library through various initiatives. The club has donated books and other essential resources, reinforcing their commitment to fostering a culture of reading and learning. These contributions are vital in providing the community with the tools they need to succeed and thrive.
The event also celebrated a remarkable achievement: Barangay Conel’s reading center becoming the first barangay reading center to be affiliated with the National Library. This affiliation is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the local leaders and the community. Hon. Tessie Agbayani, Punong Barangay Conel, deserves special recognition for her leadership and vision in making this milestone a reality.
Additionally, the event highlighted the efforts of the energetic Technical Working Group of the City Library, led by Dr. Cecilia Guaza. Their relentless dedication to reaching out to barangays and bringing reading centers to life has been instrumental in expanding access to educational resources. Their work ensures that more communities can benefit from these vital services, promoting literacy and education across the region.
The Kiwanis Club of SarGen Illustris remains steadfast in its mission to support and uplift the community through education and service.
