Nearly $150,000 has been granted to the Guam Community College to help
preserve the island's indigenous tongue. The Administration of Native
Americans in Honolulu approved the funding, which will support the
development of media-based learning modules to teach Chamorro to current
and future generations.

The Protehi I Lengguahen Chamorro project helps maintain the survival and
continuing vitality of the Chamorro language, and the forthcoming videos,
CDs and DVDs will be disseminated to help teach, preserve, and maintain
Chamorro.
