What is balayan
A community Development and Volunteer Formation Office
Which Begun in 1987.
It was introduced to create a counter culture among college students in the university --- a culture of
service for the less privileged deeply rooted in the Christian and Lasallian faith, a culture of simplicity
and a culture of peace as a means in effecting change.
The program has been successful in producing social action and community development
workers over the years.
It has been handled by 12 different formators in a span of 19 years. In trying to make the program
relevant to the needs of the times , continuing changes are being introduced.
2. Inspired by our Founder’s charism for the youth, BALAYAN responds to this continuing call of forming
young Lasallians to embrace a life of service to our brothers and sisters who are among the last, the lost
and the least.
The ultimate goal of formation is to develop potential social development workers .
