ABOUT THE THEME

 

We chose the theme ‘Encompass: Transcending Borders, Actualizing Vision’ because the time is ripe for CCYD to tread new lengths of fostering excellence, honing leadership, strengthening commitment, and spreading evangelization to create positive and significant change felt not only among its members but extending its reach to the community. For the organization, going that extra mile for the betterment of our society means seizing every opportunity that promotes holistic growth conceived as the attainment of the conditions most conducive to the full development of the human personality.

 

It reflects our hearts’ full of excitement to broaden our cultural horizons and to give valuable service to the community. It also serves as our inspiration in broadening and strengthening linkages to promote and foster international understanding, cooperation, and world peace starting in the grassroots level.

CONGRATULATIONS, JB!
