From Seeds to Success: ​The Better Facilitators' ​Origin Story

Featured Story

August 1, 2024

The Better Facilitators (TBF) started with a group of friends who were passionate ​about helping the youth and serving our communities. We all came from different ​organizations but shared a common dream of building a better and growing Church. ​We saw the spiritual needs of young people in parishes, schools, communities, and ​workplaces which led us to a decision to begin our new mission.


It was on March 3, 2024, that our journey started officially. At first, our goal was to ​create an agency and pool our skills in marketing, training, and events management ​to help local businesses in our area. After reaching out to friends for referrals, we ​landed our first engagement as facilitators for a recollection program for students in ​5th and 6th grade. Inspired by one of our mentors, we accepted an invitation from a ​public school and decided to include this as our advocacy.


After facilitating several recollections for different grade levels and student groups, ​we kept the momentum going and decided to invite more facilitators to join our ​group. Later on, we held our first community retreat and started our monthly ​community gathering to nurture the bond between volunteers and facilitators.


To prepare for the upcoming academic year, our team has started developing new ​modules, training, and formation programs. To enable new facilitators, our first ​facilitators’ boot camp was held in late July 2024.


As we begin the month of August, we welcome yet another milestone for our ​community, the launch of our digital platforms which includes our official website ​and social media accounts. This will allow us to engage with an even wider audience ​and share relevant content.


We’re excited about the future and I can’t wait to meet our new partners and journey ​with them towards better experiences.


Joining TBF means being part of a fun, inclusive community where meaningful ​connections and personal growth are at the heart of everything we do. We can’t wait ​to grow with you!
