: 350 Hope Boxes have reached our newly adopted school in San Fernando, Romblon! 🎁🌟

We are delighted to announce that 350 Hope Boxes, brimming with vital school supplies generously donated by our partners at SGV Foundation have arrived at España Elementary School.

In remote communities such as ours, these pencils, notebooks, and kits ignite creativity, foster confidence, and empower children to shatter poverty cycles through education. Without them, aspirations remain earthbound. With them, futures take flight!

Our sincere thanks to SGV Foundation for your steadfast dedication to the next generation. Your generosity transforms lives and motivates us all to champion equitable access to education.

We extend our deepest gratitude to Mr. James Pantonial, our committed Hope Paddler in San Fernando, Romblon, for coordinating the delivery of these Hope Boxes. Your passion and relentless efforts bring these opportunities to children who need them most. Truly, because of you! ⛵

Special thanks goes to Gov. Trina Firmalo-Fabic for her essential logistical assistance, guaranteeing these kits arrived safely and promptly. Your leadership bolsters our mission and exemplifies authentic partnership.

Let us keep , , and ensure until No Filipino Kid is Left Behind! 💛

: 165 Hope Boxes have arrived at our adopted school in Odiongan, Romblon! 🎁🌟

We are thrilled to share that 165 Hope Boxes, filled with essential school supplies kindly donated by our partners at SGV Foundation have reached Tulay Elementary School.

In remote areas like this one, these pencils, notebooks, and kits spark creativity, build self-assurance, and enable children to break free from poverty through learning. Without such resources, dreams stay unfulfilled. But with them, these dreams can take flight!

Our heartfelt thanks to SGV Foundation for your unwavering commitment to the next generation. Your generosity changes lives and inspires us to advocate for equal access to education.

We offer our profound appreciation to Ms. Mischelle Fainsan for facilitating the delivery of these Hope Boxes. Your dedication and tireless work deliver these opportunities to children who need them most. Indeed, thanks to you! ⛵

It's far enough to reach a child who’s waiting for a chance. It might not buy much for us, but for them, it can mean the world. Your PHP 100 might feel like a drop in the ocean, but for a child in need, it’s a tide of change, bringing hope, learning, and light.

So, let’s make Grateful Giving more than a moment, let’s make it a movement. Send your PHP 100 via GCash to 09204393261 and watch how a small act of kindness sets sail into a wave of transformation.

Be the reason a child dares to dream. Help us and , because when we lift one child, we lift the future.

We are thrilled to share that 73 Hope Boxes, brimming with vital school supplies and kindly donated by our partners at SGV Foundation, have safely reached Layag Cultural Minority School for our enthusiastic young learners.
In isolated areas like our adopted school, these pencils, notebooks, and kits spark imagination, build self-assurance, and empower children to rise above poverty through learning. Without these essential tools, their ambitions remain out of reach. But with them, dreams soar!
We offer our heartfelt thanks to SGV Foundation for your unwavering commitment to the leaders of tomorrow. Your generous support changes young lives, unlocks possibilities, and builds pathways to promising futures. Together, we cultivate enduring hope!
Special recognition to Gov. Trina Firmalo-Fabic for her vital logistical assistance and coordination with Layag Cultural Minority School to guarantee safe delivery of these kits. Your dedication bolsters our mission and exemplifies genuine collaboration. ! ⛵

𝗠𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗮𝘆𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗸𝗮-𝟵𝟯 𝗔𝗻𝗶𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝗿𝘆𝗼 𝗻𝗴 𝗣𝗮𝗴𝗸𝗮𝗸𝗮𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗴 𝗻𝗴 𝗠𝗮𝗴𝗱𝗶𝘄𝗮𝗻𝗴!

Ngayong araw, buong dangal nating ipinagdiriwang ang 93 taon ng makabuluhang kasaysayan, marangal na pagkakakilanlan, at matibay na pagkakaisa ng Magdiwang sa lalawigan ng Romblon.

Nawa’y patuloy nating pahalagahan ang pamana ng ating mga ninuno at sama-samang tahakin ang mas maunlad at mas maliwanag na kinabukasan para sa bawat Magdiwangon.

Mabuhay ang Magdiwang! Halina't Magdiwang!

Today, we commemorate the 30th Anniversary of the declaration of 𝐌𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠-𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐤 as a protected area! 🏔️ 💚

On 𝗙𝗲𝗯𝗿𝘂𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝟮𝟬, 𝟭𝟵𝟵𝟲, through 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗡𝗼. 𝟳𝟰𝟲, this magnificent treasure was officially declared a protected area, ensuring the protection of its towering peaks, dense forests, crystal-clear rivers, and extraordinary wildlife.

Nestled in the municipalities of Cajidiocan, Magdiwang, and San Fernando on the beautiful island of Sibuyan Island, this natural park stands as a symbol of resilience, conservation, and pride for the province of Romblon and the entire nation.

Known also as the “𝘎𝘢𝘭𝘢𝘱𝘢𝘨𝘰𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘈𝘴𝘪𝘢,” Mt. Guiting-Guiting is home to rare and endemic flora and fauna found nowhere else in the world. For three decades, it has reminded us of our shared responsibility to protect and preserve our natural heritage.

As we mark 30 years of protection, we honor the communities, environmental stewards, local government units, and partners who continue to safeguard this priceless landscape for future generations.

Mining has no place in our mountain. Our forests are worth more standing and fighting.
