GIVE THE GIFT OF READING 📚🩷

Angat Buhay is partnering with Adarna House for Readgalo: The Gift of Reading, a book donation drive that turns every purchase into a meaningful gift for a Filipino child.

Whether through a single book or a shared effort, every purchase can help put stories, knowledge, and new possibilities into the hands of a child. We invite everyone to be part of this simple but meaningful way of making reading more accessible to the children who need it most.

From September 1 to December 31, 2026, use code READGALO for 20% off, or READGALO FS for free shipping. The proceeds from every book purchased through Readgalo will go directly toward providing books for children and communities supported by Angat Buhay.

Together, let’s give the gift of reading and help more children discover where a good story can take them. 📖🩷

Can you imagine a painting 11.8 meters long and 2.6 meters high?

Just to put that into perspective: Juan Luna’s monumental Spoliarium is about 7.7 meters long.
Erin's newest work stretches 11.8 meters — more than 4 meters longer.

How do you even begin painting something that big? 😊

A little glimpse here. For now… just imagine the scale.

Protection against measles is dangerously low.

Here’s the latest data:
In 2025, 84% of children received their first dose of measles vaccine, and just 77% received a second dose.
This is far below the 95% coverage needed to prevent outbreaks. This leaves children at risk worldwide.

Measles is serious and can be fatal.
The prevention? 2 doses of measles vaccine.
Give your children the best protection.
