So join us and continue to support Aral Pinoy's journey as it tries in keeping you well-informed about its programs, projects activities and the progress it is making in cooperation with the Department of Education (DepEd) and National Youth Commision (NYC) through its Abot Alam www.abotalam.ph, a nationwide program with the vision of helping our community-based youth through opportunities for education, possible career and employment. It's a national strategy to organize efforts in integrating programs for our out-of-school youth (OSY).

At present, Aral Pinoy’s project is Aral Pinoy eSkwela Center (APEC), which is in partnership with Bureau of Alternative Learning System (BALS), Division of City Schools, Parañaque City, L.A. Realty Holdings Inc. and Barangay Don Bosco. APEC is housed at Room 202, 153 Executive Suites, Better Living Subdivision, Doña Soledad Avenue, Barangay Don Bosco, Bicutan, Parañaque City (beside Paranaque Doctors Hospital). APEC has a classroom and a computer laboratory to facilitate learning activities in the classroom and to apply what students will learn in their lecture and facilitate hands on learning in the computer laboratory.

APEC is based on the eSkwela Project, a word play on the Filipino equivalent of "school", which is a flagship project of the Commission on Information and Communications Technology (CICT), in partnership with DepED's Bureau of Alternative Learning System (BALS), that is envisioned to provide ICT-enhanced educational opportunities for Filipino out-of-school youth and adults (OSYAs).

The initiative responds directly to a national development priority and will bring elearning opportunities and ICT for learning resources to mobile teachers / instructional managers and out-of-school learners in the Philippines in an exciting, innovative, and locally meaningful way. Under this project, community-based e-Learning Centers or eSkwela Centers are being established around the country to conduct ICT-enhanced alternative education programs for interested individuals.

These centers serve as venues where out-of-school learners and other community members can learn new skills and competencies, review for the Accreditation and Equivalency (A&E) Exam of the DepEd-BALS, and/or help prepare learners to rejoin the formal school system, if so desired.

HAPPY catholic TEACHERS' DAY! [reposting]

After John Baptist de La Salle was proclaimed Saint by the Church under Pope Leo XIII, his relics was moved to a large chapel inside a new school along Rue Saint Gervais in Rouen. But when the religious teaching congregations in France were suppressed, the relics had to be moved again to the relocated Generalate in Lembecq-les-Hals, Belgium in 1906. Then from Belgium they were transported to Rome, where they arrived on January 26, 1937, which is the same date of the promulgation in 1725 of the Bull of Approbation of the Institute of the Brothers of Christian Schools. The relics of St. John Baptist de La Salle are now venerated in the church under his name at the Generalate in Rome.

A Place of Learning (APL)

Mac Milan Runs for Aral Pinoy

ARALPINOY.ORG INC. or Aral Pinoy (AP) is dreaming to have just one-classroom-size learning place in support of Alternative Learning System (ALS) Program of the Department of Education (DepED).

We are hoping to build "A Place of Learning" (APL) for the socially marginalized community. With your help, support, advice and generosity, it will come true.

Mac Milan (Cenen Milan Jr), an Ultra Marathoner, is joining the Bataan Death March Ultra Marathon Races on January 26-27 (160km ) & March 2-3 2013 (102km). It's the most prestigious long distance running competition in the country which only elite runners are allowed to join.

*Mac is running for Aral Pinoy instead of BDM 102km on March 2-3... it will be at KOTM 160km on February 22-23, 2013... 2013 HARDCORE HUNDRED MILES TRAIL ULTRAMARATHON (H1) February 22-23, 2013 160km... http://frontrunnermagph.wordpress.com/2012/05/31/3093/

Mac Milan had just set a record in the said sports discipline as the fastest runner to conquer Davao to Manila in just 17 straight running days from Dec 1-17, 2012.

- - -
This time, Mac Milan is running for Aral Pinoy to raise seed fund to realize AP's dream of having APL.
- - -

Part of raising social awareness on this fund raising advocacy of Aral Pinoy and Mac Milan is to offering series FREE One-Hour Running Lecture & Clinic for kids or youth or adults. The reason we do it for FREE is to get support from the communities that value the importance of Sustainable Advocacy and Capacity Building for Education, Health, Youth and Environment.

We believe that another reason for doing this is because of our education and experiences. Mac and I are both former-seminarians, campus-ministers, educators, alumni of De La Salle University, Manila and advocates.

We can schedule FREE One-Hour Running Lecture & Clinic for kids or youth or adults in any days of your choice from January 3 to 12, 2013 and January 28 to February 28, 2013.

We can do it in any community of your choice within Metro Manila or Luzon Area.

We hope you will help us build Aral Pinoy's A Place of Learning.

Thank you very much!
