Declutter with intention and create impact ♻️📚

In partnership with Clean Greenius and Hand & Heart PH, we’re excited to invite you to Circulate the Stories: A Community Book Swap!

Bring your pre-loved books to find new homes, and join us in supporting Deaf education and meaningful work opportunities.

With a ₱300 door fee, all proceeds are donated to Hand & Heart PH. Every contribution spreads kindness and opportunity. 💚

Let’s circulate abundance, stories, and goodwill together. ✨

What if decluttering your books could also create impact?

We’re gathering for Circulate the Stories, a community book swap where books find new readers and new purpose.

Bring 1–5 books to swap
Bring more if you’d like to donate.

Donation books will support literacy initiatives through Let's Read and Library Hub Philippines, while proceeds will help empower the deaf community through Hand & Heart PH.

Hosted by Clean Greenius, in partnership with Wishcraft Social Fund, this gathering is about practicing intentional decluttering, circulating stories, and building community.

Limited slots available.

Language is more than words—it is identity, culture, and connection. 🤟

Through Republic Act No. 11106, Filipino Sign Language (FSL) is recognized as the national sign language of the Philippines, affirming the right of Deaf Filipinos to communicate in their natural language.

This law also supports the use of FSL in education, government services, broadcast media, and workplaces, encouraging institutions to provide interpreters and accessible communication. By promoting FSL, the law recognizes not only a language but also the culture, identity, and lived experiences of the Deaf community in the Philippines.

Recognizing and using FSL helps ensure that Deaf Filipinos have equal access to information, learning, and opportunities, allowing them to participate fully in society. It is an important step toward a more inclusive and accessible Philippines for all.

Because inclusion begins when everyone is heard—and understood. 💛

This International Women’s Day, we honor the extraordinary Deaf women whose courage, talent, and advocacy have shaped history and strengthened the Deaf community. 💜🤟

Helen Keller proved to the world that deafblind individuals can break barriers in education, writing, and global advocacy. Her work inspired generations to fight for disability rights and equal opportunities.

Laura Redden Searing, a Deaf poet and journalist, used her writing to demonstrate that Deaf individuals have powerful voices in literature and media. Her work helped challenge the misconceptions surrounding Deafness during her time.

Gertrude Galloway dedicated her life to advancing Deaf leadership and representation. As an influential advocate, she worked tirelessly to strengthen organizations within the Deaf community and empower Deaf women to take on leadership roles.

Marlee Matlin, an award-winning Deaf actress, made history as the first Deaf performer to win an Academy Award. Through her career in film and television, she continues to advocate for authentic Deaf representation in media and greater accessibility in the entertainment industry.

Their achievements remind us that Deaf women have always been pioneers, leaders, and changemakers. Today, we celebrate their legacy and continue advocating for accessibility, equality, and recognition for Deaf women everywhere.

Something’s infusing! 🍵

A quick look back at our collaboration with Yi Fang Philippines for FSL. Last January 17, 2026, when we held our One-Day Basic Filipino Sign Language Workshop.

We are grateful for the opportunity to partner with Hand & Heart in supporting our goal of creating more inclusive and accessible workplaces. Together, we continue to break barriers and open doors.
