We are thrilled to announce that we are organizing a special charity event, "A Glimmer of Pink Hope," in collaboration with our incredible community partners: Sapphique, Safe Spaces Movement (SSM) Federation organizations, and The Gihay Initiative.

This important initiative is dedicated to supporting women, children, and LGBTQIA++ individuals from the Butuanon River Community in Cebu.

Get ready for a day focused on creating a safe space where the community can relax, unwind, connect, and have fun.

Stay tuned—a glimmer of hope is coming your way, and we have a surprise in store! ✨

We can't wait to meet the Butuanon River Community!

With the remaining ₱4,815 from our relief donation drive with Gabriela Youth - USC and What Women Want, our committed medical volunteers brought the spirit of bayanihan to the communities of Daanbantayan in Visitation and Guinsolongan.

Thanks to their compassion and service, we were able to provide free medical check-ups and distribute relief packs to affected families.

Thank you Nurse Pauliana Mantua and Nurse Syjean Layao! 🌺💗 Gihay is proud of your blooming service.

A special thank you to the BSI Network of Organizations for organizing this meaningful initiative.
