Today marks the celebration of the International Women's Day where we all aim to fully . It is the right of every woman to be included โ€“ to be free of discrimination, to belong, and to be given immeasurable opportunities.

This year, we challenge gender stereotypes, call out discrimination, draw attention to bias, and seek out inclusion.

Dahil ang mga babae ay HINDI basta-bastang mga โ€œbabae langโ€.

Happy International Womenโ€™s Day!

We bleed justice! ๐ŸŒธ

ICYMI: The Gihay Initiative, one of the flagship programs of VYM, launched its first Gihay Kit distribution at the Ramon Duterte Memorial National High School last December 5, 2022.

The Gihay Initiative advocates against the socio-economic setbacks of menstruation on women in poverty, and thus manufactures reusable napkins using both recycled clothes and new materials to be given away to underprivileged people in Cebu.
