Our future, today!
People in poverty need to create opportunities for themselves to improve their economic well-being. The National Confederation of Cooperatives (formerly known as National Association of Training Centers for Cooperatives or NATCCO) was formed by cooperators who believe that the task of coop development lays primarily in the hands of the private sector.

Featured Cooperative of the Month
Toril Community Cooperative
Davao City
After a series of false starts, a group of some thirty men of the Santo Rosario Parish, Toril, Davao City, started attending orientation lecture on Credit Union given by social actionists from the Sta. Ana Parish. Foremost among the social actionists were Mr. Hardenio Hofilenia, Atty. Fernando Alag, Mr. Epifanio Datoy, Mr. Pablo Naong and Mr. Eustaquio Ancheta, the CCC of Davao City. These lectures were conducted sometime in November and December, 1968.
These culminated on December 29, 1968 when, under the supervision and guidance of the City CCO, Mr. Ancheta , these men decided to form the Toril Community Cooperative Credit Union, Inc. and elected their officers, in conformity with the provisions of Republic Act No. 2023. The first elected officers were: Fernando Pantig, President; Pedro Concepcion, Vice President; Constantino Rabara, Secretary; Jose Ferriols, Treasurer/Manager; and Noe Albay, Director

A 10-minute nap produces immediate improvements in all outcome measures (including sleep latency, subjective sleepiness, fatigue, vigor, and cognitive performance), with some of these benefits maintained for as long as 155 minutes. https://www.forbes.com/sites/daviddisalvo/2012/07/24/why-you-should-take-a-10-minute-nap-every-day/#293197a11b0f
ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY TIP
After you eat fruit, plant a tree! On sidewalks, around your house, in an open field, anywhere there is space and light, all you have to do is: 1. bend down 2. push your finger into the soil about to about 2cm (1 inch) depth – or use a pen – and pop that seed in. 3. Then stand on the hole to close it over and tuck it in. 4. And tell your friends and family to do the same! SOURCE: https://wwf.panda.org/get_involved/plant_seed.cfm/
