SK INFORMATION DRIVE | KNOW YOUR SK OFFICIALS

SK CHAIRPERSON

The Presiding Officer, Chief Executive, and Lead Servant of the Sangguniang Kabataan

Being an SK Chairperson is more than holding a title. It is a position entrusted with a great deal of responsibility, accountability, and service to the youth.

To lead the SK, one must first understand the SK. An SK Chairperson should have a basic understanding of its laws, structure, duties, processes, financial responsibilities, youth development planning, and most importantly, its mandate to serve the Katipunan ng Kabataan.

Because how can we effectively lead an institution we do not understand?

Behind the position are meetings to preside over, decisions to make, programs to oversee, concerns to listen to, resources to manage, and responsibilities to fulfill.

Being an SK Chairperson is not for fame.
Not for clout.
Not for personal gain or self-interest.

It is a public trust.

The position calls for a leader who is willing to learn before leading, listen before deciding, understand before acting, and serve before seeking recognition.

Every decision should consider the welfare of the youth. Every program should have a purpose. Every public resource should be handled with accountability. And every opportunity to lead should be treated as an opportunity to serve.

The title may give you a position, but knowledge, integrity, accountability, and genuine service give meaning to that position.

Because leadership is not about how many people know your name. It is about how well you understand your responsibility and how faithfully you use that responsibility to serve the youth.

A New Beginning for the Young Mothers of Maricalum

Last September 8, 2026, the Young Mothers Association of Barangay Maricalum officially held its First Meeting, marking the beginning of a new chapter centered on unity, support, and empowerment among young mothers in the community.

A significant part of the gathering was the election of the association’s officers, giving members the opportunity to choose their representatives who will help guide the organization and lead future activities and initiatives.

The meeting was attended by the Barangay Council of Maricalum, representatives from the Sipalay City Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), and Sangguniang Kabataan Chairperson Debriel Jade C. Povar, who joined the young mothers in this meaningful milestone.

As the association begins its journey, may it become a space where young mothers can find support, share experiences, discover opportunities, and work together toward a stronger future for themselves, their families, and the community.

A new chapter begins. A stronger community grows together.

INITIAL INVENTORY SUCCESSFULLY CONDUCTED

Last September 10, 2026, the Sangguniang Kabataan of Barangay Maricalum successfully conducted its Initial Inventory in coordination with the Sipalay City Accounting and Budget Office, together with the Local Youth Development Office, represented by Sir Marlon Salvador.

The activity forms part of the SK’s commitment to transparency, accountability, and responsible management of government resources. Through the inventory, the SK ensured that its properties, records, and accountable items are properly documented, verified, and accounted for.

We sincerely thank the Sipalay City Accounting and Budget Office and the Local Youth Development Office, particularly Sir Marlon Salvador, for their guidance and assistance throughout the process.

Another step forward for a more organized, transparent, and accountable SK Maricalum.

Serbisyo nga may RESIBO. Para sa KABATAAN, Para sa MARICALUM.

LINGGO NG KABATAAN 2026
“Different Context, Common Aspirations”

Different stories. Different struggles. Different dreams.

But for one day, we all gathered in the same place—not as strangers, not simply as participants, but as young people who share one hope: to see our community grow with us.

Linggo ng Kabataan 2026 was more than a celebration. It was a reminder that being young does not mean having everything figured out. Some are still discovering what they want to become, some are carrying responsibilities beyond their years, while others are simply trying to find where they belong. Yet despite our different circumstances, we continue to dream, to participate, to learn, and to move forward.

From laughter and friendly competition to conversations, new friendships, and moments we will remember, this year’s celebration gave us a space to simply be young—to connect with one another and realize that we are not alone in the journey.

Because different contexts do not have to divide us. Our experiences may be different, but our aspirations can bring us together.

To the Kabataan sang Barangay Maricalum, thank you for showing up, participating, and making this celebration meaningful. May we carry the spirit of Linggo ng Kabataan beyond this celebration—by staying involved, looking after one another, and becoming part of the change we wish to see.

Different Context. Common Aspirations. One Maricalum youth community.

Linggo ng Kabataan 2026 — a celebration of who we are, where we come from, and the better future we continue to dream of together.

KNOW YOUR SK OFFICIALS | SK TREASURER

Behind every properly managed SK fund is a Treasurer who upholds accountability, transparency, and responsible stewardship of public resources.

The SK Treasurer is not simply responsible for handling money. As a bonded officer, the Treasurer is entrusted with the custody of SK funds and properties, receiving resources intended for the SK and KK, serving as co-signatory in withdrawals, and ensuring that funds are disbursed according to the approved budget.

The Treasurer is also responsible for certifying the availability of SK funds, submitting certified and detailed statements of actual income and expenditures every quarter, and rendering a written financial report on SK funds and properties during the regular Katipunan ng Kabataan assembly.

The SK Treasurer makes sure that every peso entrusted to the SK is properly received, safeguarded, accounted for, and reported.

Transparency builds trust.
Accountability strengthens leadership.
Responsible financial management empowers the youth.

Know the role. Understand the responsibility. Empower the youth. 🇵🇭

SK TESTIMONY | HON. QUEENIE L. LIGO

Do It Scared. Show Up Anyway.

For Hon. Queenie, serving as an SK Member was never easy—but it became one of the greatest honors of her young life. What started with fear and self-doubt, especially in public speaking, became a journey of courage, growth, and genuine service.

Through the ups and downs of their term, she learned that leadership isn’t about having everything figured out. It’s about taking the chance, showing up even when you’re afraid, and choosing to serve with a sincere heart.

Her message to the youth is simple: Don’t be afraid to speak, lead, and start where you are.

Because sometimes, the biggest step is simply having the courage to say, “I did it.”

One chapter may end, but the spirit of service continues.
