HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR CHAIRPERSON EMERITUS, @lenirobredo! 💗
You have shown us that the work that matters is the work that reaches people, especially those too often left behind.
Through #AngatBuhay, that commitment continues in communities where service becomes real and felt.
Meet Maple, a three-year old corgi strapped on the back of one of the protesters who cycled to Luneta Park in Manila for the anti-corruption protests on Sunday, September 21.
Maple’s owner, Kenn Marasigan, said it’s his first time to join a protest. Before September 21, he would listen in — like majority of the constantly online Filipino public — to congressional hearings about the flood control projects.
“Nakaka-stress whenever you would know na ‘yung hard-earned money natin napupunta lang sa mga certain individuals,” Marasigan told Rappler.
“As time goes by, ‘yung consciousness mo sa nangyayari sa bansa natin, nag-go-grow eh,” he added.
