Dear ________________________,
(Parents Name)
Your daughter/son ____________ has applied to join the YOS Volunteer Program Year 2013-2014
batch 20 of volunteer-trainees to work for social, peace and development in various places in
Mindanao. To prepare them, they shall be given a special formation and training during the summer
after their graduation. They shall be sent to our partner NGOs/POs, Dioceses/Parishes and Government
to assist in building cooperatives, giving agro-technical assistance, education and training, health care
programs, value formations and other social support services to the communities.
Just like many generous young people who have grown concerned for others, your child is willing to
commit herself/himself through this program as an active response to the call of service. We are
indeed, in search for such dedicated men and women whose vision of their education is a continuing
responsibility to build, to help and serve especially the less fortunate sectors and communities.
Although, your childs desire to join the Year of Service Volunteer Program is a personal
response, we believe that your own support and blessing in his/her decision is equally important
in our consideration of his/her application to the program. Enclosed are documents to help you
know more about the programs thrust, mission and areas of work. You can also visit us at our
office at Volunteer Center for Peace and Development, Manresa Compound Xavier University,
Fr. W. F. Masterson, S.J., Ave., Carmen, Cagayan de Oro City, mobile number 09261904499.
We wish that beyond understanding your childs desire to be of service, you will appreciate the fact
that giving your YES support would mean an opportunity for wide exposure and enriching
experience for your child and at the same time can be your own contribution to the continuing peace
and development endeavors for Mindanao and the whole society.
Thank you very much. God bless you and your family!
Very respectfully yours,
Signed: Pernalyn T. Beja
