The good experiences that Pamulaan Center has been given me were the trainings, team building workshops, and other seminars. I really learned a lot especially in working with my classmates as we deepened together our realizations on the essence of volunteerism and leadership.

Had I not been to Pamulaan Center, my life would still be without direction, motivation, and inspiration.

Recognizing the roots of my culture and the diversity of the Filipino indige nous peoples is for me a high achieve me nt; it is more than all the laurels and any material wealth anyone can gain in the world.

How was my life in Pamulaan? It was truly a challenging, funny, and inspirational one. I thank God for being my refuge and for enabling me to surpass the pressures and difficulties of being a student; and I know He will continue to guide me in the coming years. I thank Pamulaan for giving me the opportunities to discover and utilize my skills and my academic successes.
