TRC Conducted Beaded Accessories Training for Umingan Local Council of Women

A livelihood training course on Beaded Accessories was held on March 22, 2011 at the NGO Building of Umingan,Pangasinan. It was sponsored by the Local Government Unit of Umingan headed by Mayor Eldred P. Tumbocon through the initiative of Ms Camila M. Tumbocon, the Honorary Chairwoman of ULCW, and in coordination with the Municipal Social Welfare Development Office headed by Ms Elma C. Bequio and ULCW President Ms Lovenia Jasmin.
Trainers were from the Technology Resource Center, San Juan City, Metro Manila. A total of 32 women from different barangays actively participated in the training.
The activity is in line with the vision of the Umingan Local Council of Women (ULCW) which is “Empowering Women Through Entrepreneurship”. It also coincide with the celebration of International Women’s Month.
Mayor Eldred P. Tumbocon showed his support for the empowerment of women by gracing the affair with a message of encouragement for the trainees. DILG officer Carmen Rosario C. Rafanan also gave a message.
Participants of the said training were able to come up with beautiful and intricate designs of earrings, charm bracelets, cellphone holder, key chains and many more. They learned the basics of Beaded Accessory making. Given the proper guidance, it showed a great potential for the ULCW members to earn extra cash for the family should they decide to make it a full time business since this kind of venture only needs small capital and can be utilized even in the confines of their homes. Ms Camila M. Tumbocon together with the ULCW secretariat are working on the follow-up activities of the group.
