TO: ALL STUDENT COUNCILS, PUBLICATIONS, ORGANIZATIONS,
COMMUNITY-BASED YOUTH FORMATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS RE: YOUTH ACT NOW! GENERAL ASSEMBLY ON OCT 18
Warm greetings of solidarity!
Youth for Accountability and Truth Now or Youth Act Now! is an alliance of student councils, publications, national youth and student organizations, community-based youth, young professionals, artists and prominent youth leaders and personalities. The formation of Youth ACT Now! marks the further strengthening of youth and student participation nationwide in the fight for truth, accountability and genuine change in government.
As young people moved with our conscience and aspirations for good governance and accountability for wrong deeds done, we condemn the gross and systematic plunder of the countrys coffers and resources for the benefit of a few influential government officials and cronies.
We have been very active in recent months in the crusade for truth, justice and meaningful reforms in our society. We organized education drives, #DAPatManagot #DAPatMagingay (nationwide noise barrage against pork), and Peoples Initiative against Pork in different Colleges and Universities nationwide.
To continuously plan for our campaign against corruption, we are inviting you to attend the Youth Act Now General Assembly on October 18, Saturday, 1:00pm-4:00pm, at Rm. 305 Mother Mary Joseph (MMJ) Bldg. in Miriam College, Katipunan, Quezon City.
The assembly will tackle the following: Updates on the Pork Barrel Campaign and DAP Updates on the Peoples Initiative to Abolish the Pork Barrel System Youth Act Now Volunteers Orientation DAPatManagot Project Other Plans Thank you very much and we fervently hope for your positive response.
