Angat Teresa was recently given the opportunity to be part of a master’s research study by a Filipina student from Friedrich Schiller University, where our experiences in disaster response and volunteer engagement were shared through a simple conversation via Google Meet.

It was a meaningful exchange that reminded us that community work, no matter how local it may seem, carries stories and insights worth listening to, learning from, and sharing. More than anything, it affirmed the importance of collaboration, volunteerism, and collective action in responding to the needs of our communities.

“Volunteerism truly helps a community. It is not measured by how many lives you change or how long the impact lasts, but in knowing that, even in small ways, you made a difference. What matters most is showing up in the hardest moments with genuine care, compassion, and empathy.”

Kayang-kaya basta sama-sama!

Ang Angat Teresa ay nakikiisa sa Araw ng Kagitingan.

Ang tunay na bayani ay hindi laging nasa libro. Narito sila sa ating paligid, mga manggagawa, drayber, TODA, at magsasaka na araw-araw lumalaban para sa pamilya at bayan. Ang kanilang pawis, tiyaga, at sakripisyo ang nagbibigay buhay at pag-asa sa ating komunidad.

Sa araw na ito, nananawagan kami ng makataong polisiya na agarang alisin ang VAT at excise tax sa krudo at isulong ang pagbabasura ng oil deregulation, upang mabawasan ang pasaning dinadala ng ating mga bayani sa bawat araw.

Sa bawat Pilipino na patuloy na bumabangon, nagtataguyod ng pamilya, at hindi sumusuko, ang laban ninyo ay laban nating lahat. ✊

From Eastern Rizal to the University of the East!

Angat Teresa warmly congratulates our very own Vice President for External Affairs, Charlize Anne Zapanta, being elected as the University Student Council President of the University of the East for the Academic Year 2026–2027.

With 1,723 votes or 72%, your win reflects the trust placed in you by the student body. More than a victory, it is a reminder that young people are ready to step forward, listen, and lead with purpose.

We also extend our congratulations to all newly elected USC officers. May your leadership be guided by service, integrity, and a genuine commitment to your fellow students.

Thank you for choosing to lead and for continuing to uplift youth leadership in your community.

Angat Teresa Supports the BUKAS Ordinance

A meaningful step forward for participatory governance.

On March 7, 2026, the proposed BUKAS Ordinance (Bukas na Ugnayan at Aktibong Sambayanan) received unanimous support from the Local People’s Council with a 12–0 vote from the Sectoral Representatives.

Angat Teresa, serving as part of the Youth Sectoral Representative, proudly stood among the twelve who endorsed the measure, affirming our commitment to transparent, accountable, and inclusive governance where young people and communities have a voice in shaping local policies.

With this unified support, the ordinance now advances to the Sangguniang Bayan for formal deliberation and the next stage of the legislative process.

BUKAS Ordinance Earns Unanimous Support from the Local People’s Council!

Noong March 7, 2026, buong pagkakaisang inaprubahan ng Local People’s Council ang panukalang BUKAS Ordinance (Bukas na Ugnayan at Aktibong Sambayanan) matapos itong makakuha ng unanimous vote na 12–0 mula sa mga dumalong Sectoral Representatives.

Sa boto ng labindalawang kinatawan, handa ng iendorso ang panukala sa Sangguniang Bayan para sa pormal na pagtalakay at susunod na proseso ng lehislasyon.

Ang pagkakaisang ito ay nagpapakita ng sama-samang hangarin ng iba’t ibang sektor na palakasin ang mas bukas na ugnayan sa pagitan ng pamahalaan at mamamayan, at hikayatin ang mas aktibong pakikilahok ng komunidad sa paghubog ng mga lokal na polisiya.

Happy International Women’s Day! 🌸

“Ang babae ay huwag tingnang isang bagay na libangan lamang kundi isang katuwang at karamay sa mga kahirapan nitong kabuhayan; gamitin mo nang buong pagpipitagan ang kanyang kahinaan at alalahanin ang inang pinagbuhata’t nag-iwi sa iyong kasanggulan.“

— Mula sa Aral ng Katipunan, Julio Nakpil

Isang paalala mula sa ating kasaysayan na ang kababaihan ay hindi kailanman naging pangalawa. Sila ay katuwang sa pagharap sa hirap ng buhay at kaagapay sa paghubog ng bayan.

Sa araw na ito, patuloy nating kilalanin, igalang, at itaguyod ang dignidad at lakas ng bawat babae.

BABAE KA, HINDI BABAE LANG.

Women cannot be confined to someone else’s imagination or reduced to passing remarks. Their worth has never been defined by commentary, but by the strength, intelligence, and courage they bring in shaping our communities and our nation.

Women lead, create, organize, and transform the spaces they are part of. They are builders of change and voices of progress.

This Women’s Month, affirms our unwavering commitment to uphold the dignity, leadership, and power of women. We stand for a community where women are respected, empowered, and free to shape the future on their own terms.

Women cannot be reduced to someone else’s imagination.

Not in the halls of power.
Not in public discourse.
Not anywhere.

Women are leaders, workers, creators, thinkers, and builders of this country. They deserve respect, dignity, and equal space in shaping our society.

This Women’s Month, we reject the many ways women are diminished and affirm their dignity, voice, and power in shaping our communities.
