SOWING LEGACY MOVEMENT (SLM)
I supported Sowing Legacy Movement (SLM) since October 2015 so let me tell you what is this all about.
Sowing Legacy Movement (SLM) is a network of committed individuals working together to bring positive change through concrete actions and love. As a volunteer-based organization, the movement has various programs which include supporting the education of scholars and conducting various outreach programs as well as leadership trainings and meaningful fund raising events. Founded in Bacolod City, Negros Occidental and they now have chapters in Bicol, Cebu, Davao, Manila, Marinduque, Tanay and in some cities and municipalities in Negros like in Himamaylan, Kabankalan, La Castellana, Silay and Sagay.
Education is the priority of this organization with its flagship project is known as “A Child Worker No More and Sponsor a Scholar” project. The project was first conceptualized and implemented in 2014, with the strategy, “How far will your 30 pesos a month go?” They believe that such title captures the focus of this initiative which is to bring back children to school and to support their educational and other needs. The project name has both of the vision and action they are calling for. It has the dream that they have for today’s children and tomorrow’s hope while at the same time has that invitation for all who can hear about their project. The project title is told in a singular perspective because each child is treated uniquely and in the most special way. Each of them, every story and every dream --- matters to them. They know that not just as additional scholars but as gems whose stories will always inspire them to do all they can to sustain this project.

Yes, there is a Cebu chapter of Sowing Legacy Movement but it’s still in formation stage.

SLM envisions of people moving the world through acts of sowing and leaving legacies. It is a movement of individuals and networks working together for empowerment of children, youth and communities. The volunteers conduct home visits to keep a meaningful, authentic yet professional relationship to the scholars and their families. Tutorial services are also offered to them, particularly in subjects they have difficulty with.
Moreover, SLM conducts other developmental activities such as legacy camps and leadership trainings, aside from the outreach programs that it also organizes. The core leaders are promoting the “Pledge 30 pesos Campaign” along with other fund raising activities.
