RC Basilan Celebrates Literacy Day


The Rotary Club of Basilan celebrated Literacy Day and Reducing child Mortality last Sept 16, 2008 by inviting guest speaker in our weekly meeting in the person of Mr. Rheinjohn A. Sampang, a public school teacher and a recipient of the Most Outstanding Secondary School Teacher in Basilan, who spoke on Literacy Education: “A look at the Philippines Educational System”. The Rotarians listened and share ideas on how our literacy contributes to reducing child mortality. This is in connection with RI President D. K. Lee's priority request that all clubs in the world take some action to REDUCE CHILD MORTALITY. President Lee suggested that each club may consider blending the twin concerns together and encourage our clubs to promote the reduction of child mortality through appropriate literacy activities.
