Independence Day reminds us how valuable freedom is. Habang ipinagdiriwang natin ang kalayaan ng ating bansa, magandang tanungin din natin ang ating sarili: ano ang mga bagay na patuloy na kumukulong sa puso natin—fear, bitterness, guilt, o worry?

True freedom is not just about where we live, but also how we live.

As we celebrate today, may we choose to walk in the freedom, hope, and purpose that God desires for us, and use that freedom to love, serve, and bless others.

Urban Farmers is working with graduate students from Ateneo de Manila University to develop our upcoming Sustainability Report, and we’d love to include your perspectives as we move towards our next chapter 🌼

We’re inviting our volunteers, partners, and community members to answer a short Stakeholder Materiality Survey. Your insights will help us understand which issues matter most to you and guide how we improve our programs and impact 🌿

It only takes a few minutes, and your voice will really help shape the report.
