A Thank You Message From Charlene Inao, PAMAG Scholar in the Be My Lab Partner Program
Charlene Inao graduated July 31, 2022 from UP Diliman with a degree in BS Chemistry program with Honors (Cum Laude). Here’s her message:
Studying during a pandemic was not easy. There were several adjustments I had to make given my circumstances, but I was fortunate enough to have the Philippine American Medical Association of Georgia’s support as I transitioned to remote learning back in 2020 until I finished my degree this year. It would have been a heavier struggle for me to complete my college education on time if it weren’t for their active assistance in giving me a better learning environment despite the online set-up. Through their help, I am now a BS Chemistry degree holder. With this education, I wish to work as a chemist in the industry and contribute to the advancement of science in the Philippines especially now that it is most needed.
Again, thank you very much for your support. I will always be grateful to your organization.

UP DILIMAN SCHOLARS
As the new semester started, PAMAG continued to support these two outstanding University of the Philippines Diliman BS Chemistry students under the BE MY LAB PARTNER initiative. These students are doing remote learning because of the pandemic and have faced financial challenges thereby the university found a way to match the students with donors such as PAMAG to help them continue their education.
Charlene Inao and Emmanuel Larz Labsan are two of our outstanding scholars for the schoolyear 2020-2021. More power to them and Mabuhay ang mga Iskolar ng Bayan!

Dear Friends,
Happy Thanksgiving to our family and friends in PAMAG and the Georgia community! Even with the pandemic still raging, we are blessed to have our health. Our family and friends have been helping us through this difficult times.
We have been able to share what we have to communities here in Georgia and around the world through our support of Americares. We have been able to do outreach in the Philippines through our local partners there. We aim to continue forging with our mission of sharing with your help.
We would like to acknowledge the great achievement of our recent PAMAG Scholar Dr. Chino Samson from the Lyceum Northwestern University. He placed #5 in the 2020 Philippine Medical Licensure Examination. He is the only one outside of Metro Manila and Davao who is in the Top 10. He was a working student while in medical school and needed our help to finish medicine. PAMAG Scholarship at work!
Happy Thanksgiving!
