1. Executive Summary
This project proposal aims to implement a community-based Good Manners and
Right Conduct (GMRC) program to instill and promote Filipino values in children,
youth, and adults in our community. This initiative will engage participants in
learning the significance of respect, kindness, responsibility, humility, and empathy.
Through workshops, interactive activities, and outreach programs, we will foster a
sense of discipline, respect for others, and a commitment to positive social behavior
in our society.

2. Project Rationale
In today’s fast-paced and highly digitalized world, traditional values such as respect,
courtesy, and empathy are often overlooked, especially among the younger
generation. GMRC plays a crucial role in shaping individuals who are not only
academically or professionally capable but also morally grounded and socially
responsible. This program seeks to revitalize the importance of these core values,
equipping participants with the tools they need to be respectful, responsible, and
kind individuals in both their personal lives and their communities.

3. Project Objectives
General Objective: To promote the practice of good manners and right conduct
among the youth and adults, ensuring that Filipino values are deeply ingrained in
everyday interactions.
Specific Objectives:
1. To raise awareness about the significance of GMRC in community
development.
2. To foster positive character traits, including respect, humility, empathy, and
responsibility, among participants.
 3. To provide engaging, hands-on learning experiences that reinforce the
importance of GMRC in real-world situations.
4. To create a ripple effect by encouraging participants to share their learning
with their families, peers, and communities.
5. To assess and evaluate the effectiveness of the GMRC program in shaping
better behavior and attitudes.

4. Target Audience
1. Children (Grades 1-6): Engaging young minds early on through age-
appropriate activities.
2. Adolescents (Grades 7-12): A more advanced program tailored to teenage
development, dealing with peer pressure, social responsibility, and personal
integrity.
3. Adults: Workshops for parents and working professionals to reinforce
positive conduct in both their family and professional lives.
4. Community Leaders: A program for local influencers, educators, and role
models to create a multiplier effect within the community.
