La Colina Cares Foundation - LCCF

🎄Season’s Greetings from La Colina Cares Foundation🪼

As the year comes to a close, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to our partners, volunteers, and supporters. Your kindness and generosity have helped us bring hope, care, and positive change to the communities we serve.

May this Christmas be filled with peace, joy, and renewed strength, and may the New Year bring continued compassion and opportunities to make a difference—together.

Warmest wishes for a blessed Christmas and a bright New Year.

Nothing to see here. Just some jellyfish enjoying salt water 🏊🏽‍♂️🪼

Shoutout to our chairman, Ria Colina for finishing the Chicago Marathon! Congratulations on the strong finish, for the safe race, and in earning your second star in the World Majors!

26.2 miles through the heart of Chicago.
Moved by the rhythm, like a jellyfish in deep water — steady, quiet, relentless.

Rest and recover, Mother Jellyfish! Mahal ka namin! 🫶🏼

Happy Birthday, Jellyfish - our dear friend, the one-man support crew, the big and cuddly legend himself! 🪼💪🎉

You’re the kind of friend who floats through life with chill vibes, steady strength, and a beer in hand – always ready to offer support, share a laugh, or just sit in comfortable silence. You might be squishy on the outside, but you're rock solid where it counts.

Here's to another year of races, beers, banter, bad decisions, and being the big-hearted jellyfish we all love. Wouldn't trade you for a whole ocean.

Happy Birthday, Ramon Miguel! 🥳🪼

Well done, Jellyfish! 🪼🪼🪼

We wobbled, we wiggled, and yes — we jellied our way through Damosa Land 5150 Samal (1.5 km swim, 40 km bike, 10 km run — aka: 100% too much land).

🏊‍♂️ Swim: Our natural habitat.
🚴‍♀️ Bike: Slightly less graceful without tentacles.
🏃‍♂️ Run: Basically just a controlled collapse with style.

Did we sting the competition? Maybe not.
Did we squish across the finish line in glorious, gelatinous triumph? Absolutely.

Big thanks to electrolytes, questionable pacing decisions, and the ancient power of sea creatures for getting us here. Time to hydrate, celebrate, and never speak of that hill on the run course again. 💀

P.S.
Sorry absent among layout artist, agwantaha sa ninyo ni 🥴

Let’s Go! 😤🏊🏼‍♀️🚴🏽‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️

Wishing a legendary birthday to the one person who can diagnose a sprain, run an obstacle course, crush a triathlon, and still outlift everyone at the gym — all before breakfast. You’re the only one we know who can talk about VO2 max, squat twice their body weight, and still give life advice that hits harder than leg day.

Have a good one, Jude! Happy, Happy, Happy Birthday! Mahal ka namin! 🪼
