𝘈 𝘕𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘓𝘰𝘷𝘦, 𝘈 𝘊𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘰 𝘚𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘦

On this solemn Maundy Thursday, we remember a night of humility, service, and boundless love—when bread was shared, and hearts were opened to sacrifice for others.

Just as that sacred table became a symbol of compassion and giving, the Philippine Red Cross continues its mission to serve those in need—quietly, tirelessly, and selflessly.

This Holy Week, may we be reminded that true service begins with simple acts of kindness. Whether through lending a hand, giving blood, or supporting those in crisis, each act carries the power to save lives.

Be the reason someone finds hope today. Be part of the mission.

💧 Celebrating World Water Day: Water and Gender 💧

​Earlier today, the Philippine Red Cross - Mountain Province Chapter joined the global community in celebrating World Water Day at Butigue National High School, Paracelis, Mountain Province.

​With the theme "Water and Gender," our Grades 7 and 11 students participated in an energetic Water Relay, followed by a meaningful session of sharing experiences and realizations.

​🌊 3 Things We Need to Know About Water & Gender Equality:

​1️⃣ The crisis affects everyone—but not equally. Where safe water and sanitation are missing, inequality flourishes. Women and girls often bear the brunt of the water crisis, and it is time to center them in our solutions.
2️⃣ Women must shape the future of water. We need a transformative, rights-based approach where women’s voices, leadership, and agency are fully recognized to ensure water services meet everyone's needs.
3️⃣ Where water flows, equality grows. When women and girls have an equal voice in water decisions, services become more inclusive, sustainable, and effective for the whole community.

​A huge congratulations to the winners of our Water Relay and to all participants for your insightful contributions.

​Special thanks to the School Head, Sir Russel R. De Joseph, for welcoming this activity to Butigue NHS, and a job well done to our dedicated personnel at the Paracelis Field Office for making this event a success.

𝘍𝘖𝘙 𝘈 𝘞𝘈𝘛𝘌𝘙-𝘚𝘌𝘊𝘜𝘙𝘌, 𝘌𝘘𝘜𝘈𝘓 𝘍𝘜𝘛𝘜𝘙𝘌

This World Water Day, we unite around the theme “𝘞𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘎𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘌𝘲𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺.”

Our work at the Philippine Red Cross goes beyond emergency response—it is about building sustainable, resilient communities. The burden of water collection often limits opportunities for women and girls. By ensuring safe and equal access to water, we empower everyone to thrive.

Saving water is not just about today; it’s about generations yet to come. At the PRC, we leverage a vital ecosystem to make this happen:

𝘝𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘦𝘳𝘴 + 𝘓𝘰𝘨𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘴 + 𝘐𝘯𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘛𝘦𝘤𝘩𝘯𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘨𝘺 = 𝘈 𝘙𝘌𝘋 𝘊𝘙𝘖𝘚𝘚 𝘛𝘏𝘈𝘛 𝘐𝘚 𝘈𝘓𝘞𝘈𝘠𝘚 𝘍𝘐𝘙𝘚𝘛, 𝘈𝘓𝘞𝘈𝘠𝘚 𝘙𝘌𝘈𝘋𝘠, 𝘈𝘓𝘞𝘈𝘠𝘚 𝘛𝘏𝘌𝘙𝘌.

Together, we can create a future where clean water is a reality for all. Be part of the solution. Visit our official channels to learn how you can support our WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) programs.

On March 17, 2026, the Philippine Red Cross – Mountain Province Chapter, in partnership with the Mountain Province State University – College of Health Education (Level 4, Section B-1), successfully conducted a Health Caravan in Barangay Sacasacan, Sadanga, Mountain Province.

The activity reached the learners of Sacasacan Elementary School, where various Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) sessions were conducted. Topics included Preventive Nephrology, Menstrual Hygiene Management for Grades 4 to 6, and Hygiene Promotion sessions tailored for Kinder to Grade 3 pupils. These sessions aimed to instill essential health practices and awareness among the young learners. After the discussions, individual hygiene kits were distributed to the pupils to reinforce proper hygiene practices.

Simultaneously, at the Barangay Hall, community members participated in an IEC session on Rabies Prevention and Wound Management. This was conducted while residents were waiting for their turn for YAKAP enrollment facilitated by the Sadanga Municipal Health Office (MHO) and DOH-HRH. In addition, the Philippine Red Cross provided urinalysis services to clients as part of its commitment to preventive healthcare.

Basic first aid kits, along with informational brochures on Dengue Prevention and Immunization, as well as Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS), were also distributed to the community members.

This initiative highlights the continued commitment of all partners to promote health awareness and accessible services in grassroots communities.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Mountain Province State University – College of Health Education Level 4 Group B-1 for this meaningful partnership.
