*Science Month Celebration*

       In this month of September, this is the start of the "ber" months where we can feel excitement but before anything else let us enjoy the remaining months where we can spend our time in anything that make us happy.
       In the month of September is considered as the National Science Club Month Celebration (NSCMC) under the Presidential Proclamation No. 264. Which then-President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo signed in September 2002. During the National Science Club Month Celebration, the Philippine Society of Youth Science Clubs (PSYSC) conducts activities that encourage the youth to actively participate in the science clubbing movement.
          The Philippine Society of Youth Science Clubs is a non-stock, non-profit, non-government, and non-sectarian organization. It is the only national federation of youth science clubs in the Philippines. Its thrust is to promote the Public Understanding of Science, Technology and Environment. With more than 100,000 active members nationwide, the society on its 39th year of existence is continuously conducting activities geared towards the promotion of scientific interests and consciousness among our youth.
        Let's talk about the insights of the Science Month Celebration. According to a post on the official Facebook page of the Philippine Society of Youth Science Clubs (PSYSC). The group explained the rationale behind the theme as follows: "It is a play on words on ammunition and immunization. We would like our science clubbers to be armed or to be immune against diseases through imparting knowledge about disease on how they spread and etc. Our goal is not only the science clubbers that benefit from this knowledge but also their school and communities and thus leading to national wellness."

        As the Science Club Vice-President of our school, I would like to promote the mission of our organization and this is where we would like to promote the public understanding of Science, Technology and Environment to be immune or to be armed against the present issues of diseases where it can affects the life of the person.
