My art always served a greater purpose in my life. Since 2015, I've been doing fundraising to help various charities. It started with Mother Theresa Spinelli Retreat house & Orphanage in Tagaytay. A simple sketch back then helped me gather enough funds to do my first outreach program. It wasn't much, but it was my first & it was something I kept with me until now. I've done couple of outreach at the orphanage before exploring other charity organizations.



In 2017, l organized another charity outreach program for the elderly. The funds I gathered from my artworks were donated & used for the feeding program at San Lorenzo Ruiz Home for the Elderly. Looking back, my only regret was not being able to take photos. Nonetheless, it served me great memories.



One of which is Nanay Edith. When asked what her advice is, she answered, "Huwag na huwag kang bibitaw sa kapit mo sa Dyos. Gumanda o pumangit man ang buhay mo, huwag kang bibitaw."


Since then I've moved on to different advocacies - organizing art bootcamp, curating art exhibits, to environmental work. In the coming years, I hope to do more & learn more from various walks of life, as well as share more through my art.
