My Appeal
This October, I’m joining the Verde Island Classic—a virtual challenge that lets me walk, hike, or run anywhere in the world to raise funds for something deeply important: protecting the Verde Island Passage in the Philippines. It’s a place you may not have heard of, but it’s one of the most biodiverse marine ecosystems on the planet—literally called “the center of the center of marine shorefish biodiversity.” It’s also under threat from pollution, overfishing, and lack of protection. This is personal to me. As a Filipino American, ocean lover, and mom, I believe in fighting for the places and people often overlooked.
I’d be so grateful if you could support my campaign by donating what you can: https://www.charityfootprints.com/AFIVerdeIslandClassic/
Whether it’s $5 or $50, every bit helps fund marine conservation, mangrove protection, local advocacy, and citizen science in the Philippines. Thank you for being part of my circle, always.
