Founded in 1993, the Samahan ng mga Litratista sa Rizal (SLR) is one of the most dynamic camera clubs in the Philippines. Believing in the power of communicating through the lens, SLR members aim to showcase the Philippines to the rest of the world to foster camaraderie among photo enthusiasts and to use photography as a tool for national development.
SLR regularly conducts outreach missions to less fortunate brethren from funds coming from the generous donations of members who regularly win photo contests here and abroad as inspired by the club’s motto: “It is not just about winning, it is all about giving.”
The group has already produced the following recognitions from among its members:
