Message from the President

“Greetings, beloved ACheS members!

I would first like to commend you for expressing interest in ACheS-celerate – our annual leadership formation program in the Ateneo Chemistry Society.

This year proved to be a challenging year as we continue our second academic term in an online setup, one that can sometimes feel isolating and taxing. It is indeed hard to lead at this point of time but it is through these challenging moments that we stretch and expand the limits of our potential. Launching our official website, partnering with OSCI and PIPAC are just some of the highlights in ACheS that are testament to our capacity to be more.

The teasers to these announcements have elements of galaxy and solar system as we invite our members to reach for the stars by moving on to bigger and better things. We want to keep the momentum of our progress by continuing with our celestial theme in ACheS-celerate in the hopes that you join us to maximize your potential to be of service to others.

“ACheS-celerate aims to jumpstart your leadership journey in order to further our shared goal of a progressive nation-building.“

Now is your time to unleash the transformation that’s on deck for your life.”
