The Franciscan College of the Immaculate Conception (FCIC) continues to uphold its mission of nurturing future leaders as it proudly participated in the PAPSAS 3rd Regional Student Leadership Summit and Conference, held from March 5–7, 2026, at Summit Hotel, Tacloban City.
The three-day summit gathered student leaders from across the region, providing a dynamic platform for learning, collaboration, and growth. Through engaging discussions, leadership workshops, and meaningful exchanges, participants were equipped with essential skills and insights needed to navigate the challenges of modern leadership. The event emphasized not only academic excellence but also character formation, ethical responsibility, and service-oriented leadership.
Representing FCIC in this significant event was Ms. Rowena M. Donayre, who actively participated in the various sessions and activities of the summit. Her involvement reflects the institution’s dedication to empowering its students to engage in meaningful leadership opportunities beyond the campus.
FCIC’s participation in this prestigious gathering highlights its unwavering commitment to molding young leaders who are not only competent but also compassionate and values-driven. Rooted in Franciscan principles, the institution continues to inspire students to lead with integrity, humility, and a strong sense of purpose. Opportunities such as this summit serve as a vital extension of the college’s mission, empowering students to become proactive contributors to society.
The success of this endeavor would not have been possible without the collective efforts of dedicated organizers, supportive mentors, and partner institutions who believe in the transformative power of youth leadership. FCIC extends its heartfelt gratitude to the Philippine Association of Practitioners of Student Affairs and Services (PAPSAS), the event facilitators, and all those who supported and made this initiative meaningful and impactful.
As FCIC moves forward, it remains steadfast in its vision of developing empowered student leaders who will make a difference in their communities and beyond.
