Families of Slain Journalists Join Summer Program
Quezon City, 22 April 2007



Some 40 family members of slain journalists gathered together this weekend for a three-day summer workshop of sharing, healing, and learning.

The Saranggola Summer workshop was organized by the National Union of Journalists of the Philippines, the Bevil Mabey Study Foundation and the Kasangga sa Kaunlaran Inc.

The Saranggola Summer workshop, held from April 20-21, 2007, at the Subic Bay Freeport, consisted of field trips and psychosocial sessions facilitated by the Children’s Rehabilitation Center. The workshop, the second since 2006, ended on Sunday with lunch with benefactors and photo opportunities for media.

The family members are beneficiaries of the Bevil Mabey Study Foundation-Kasangga sa Kaunlaran-National Union of Journalists of the Philippines Scholarship Program. ###
