ASP Angels Walk for Autism 2026: AUMBITIOUS. AARANGKADA. AANGAT.
On April 26, 2026, ASP City of San Fernando Pampanga — together with other ASP chapters, partner organizations, families, advocates, educators, friends, and members of the autism community, came together for the ASP Angels Walk for Autism 2026 held in Mall of Asia Arena.
Under the powerful call of “AUMBITIOUS. AARANGKADA. AANGAT.”, this year’s theme shone a light on the vocations and aspirations of Filipino adults on the autism spectrum. It reminded everyone that people on the spectrum have dreams to pursue, talents to share, and stories worth listening to.
AUMBITIOUS speaks of their goals and hope. It reminds us that people on the spectrum have ambitions that deserve to be supported, nurtured, and believed in.
AARANGKADA speaks of movement and progress. It reminds us that with understanding, opportunities, and community support, people on the spectrum can continue learning, working, creating, and sharing their gifts with the world.
AANGAT speaks of rising. It is a reminder that inclusion is not only about making space, but also about helping every person grow and be recognized for the light they bring.
As everyone walked together like stars in one wide sky, the event became more than just a walk. It became a symbolic journey of acceptance and unity. Every step showed the strength of families, the support of communities, and the bright future we continue to build for Filipinos with autism.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to SM Cares for their unwavering support in making this event possible. We also sincerely thank the Provincial Government of Pampanga, under the leadership of Gov. Lilia G. Pineda for their continued support and generosity to our ASP CSFP Chapter and to the autism community.
We are also grateful to the Provincial Social Welfare and Development Office, PDRRMO together with the Persons with Disabilities Affairs Office, headed by Ms. Mary Ann Zamora, and the General Services Office, represented by Sir Francis V. Maslog and Mr. Harlan L. Borromeo.
Thank you for providing our Jollibee meals throughout the day, from breakfast and snacks to lunch, as well as the bus and coaster that made our journey to the event more comfortable and memorable. Your commitment helps create brighter spaces where every person is valued and given the chance to rise.
Together, we walked.
Together, we moved forward.
Together, we rose.
Because every journey matters.
Every dream deserves a chance.
Every voice deserves to be heard.
And every star can shine.
AUMBITIOUS. AARANGKADA. AANGAT.
