From Principles to Practice: Dumangas Cooperatives Committed to Compliance and Empowered Leaders.”

The Metro Dumangas Multi-Purpose Cooperative (MDMPC) and the Dumangas National High School Consumers Cooperative (DNHSCC) have undertaken a Compliance Training on the Fundamentals of Cooperatives and the Governance and Management of Cooperatives to empower their cooperative leaders and underscore the importance of translating cooperative principles into concrete practices that ensure effective governance, transparency, and accountability.

The activity provides participants with a deeper understanding of the fundamentals of cooperatives, the roles and responsibilities of officers, and, more importantly, it highlights compliance not as a mere obligation but as a purposeful effort toward sustainability, credibility, and long-term service to members and the community.

Dumangas cooperatives demonstrate their dedication to embodying the values of cooperation, good governance, and collective growth, anchoring their development on both principles and purposeful action.

WVAC Recognized as Accredited Cooperative Training Provider | by LGAF

WVAC will soon announce the training schedule for its member-affiliates, following its recent accreditation as a Cooperative Training Provider. This milestone enables the federation to deliver the required capacity-building programs under Republic Act 9520, which mandates cooperative officers to undergo mandatory training as one of the requirements for securing their Certificate of Compliance.

Furthermore, cooperatives may remit their Cooperative Education and Training Fund (CETF) due to federation or union to support continuing education and promote collaboration within the cooperative movement.

The WVAC officers and affiliates express their sincere gratitude to the Cooperative Development Authority Regional Office VI, led by Regional Director Antonio C. Escobar and Supervising Cooperative Development Specialist Ms. Joyce Losaria, for their unwavering support in making this achievement possible.

🌟 Honoring José Rizal: A Hero and a Visionary for Unity 🌟

Today, we honor Dr. José Rizal, not just as a national hero but also as a pioneer of community empowerment. During his exile in Dapitan, Rizal demonstrated the spirit of cooperativism by organizing projects that uplifted the local community.

He worked hand-in-hand with the people, promoting education, building infrastructure, and establishing sustainable enterprises. These initiatives were built on mutual aid, shared responsibility, and self-reliance—the principles defining modern cooperatives.

Let us celebrate Rizal’s enduring legacy of hope, resilience, and the power of working together. 💪🇵🇭
