“God will not ask how many good things you have done in your life. Rather, He will ask, ‘How much LOVE did you put into what you did?’” — St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta 💚🙏💛

As we celebrate the International Day of Charity, the UST College of Nursing concludes its relief goods distribution for families greatly affected by the recent typhoons and habagat.

Through our different partner communities in Bulacan, Pampanga, and Rizal, we were blessed to reach a total of 725 families—bringing not only relief goods, but also a message of hope, compassion, and solidarity during difficult times.

This initiative was made possible through the leadership of our Dean, Dr. Rowena Escolar Chua, and the dedication of the Community Development Team, with the invaluable support of UST Simbahayan.

But the success of this mission would not have been possible without the generosity of our UST Nursing Alumni, whose kindness and unwavering support became the heart of this endeavor. 💚💛

To every alumnus, donor, volunteer, partner, and member of the community who shared their time, resources, and love—maraming, maraming salamat!

This is the true Thomasian spirit—a spirit of compassion, service, and love for others.

725 families. One Nursing family. One Thomasian spirit. One mission of love and service. 💚💛

May we continue to live the words of St. Mother Teresa—not simply by doing good, but by putting LOVE in everything we do.

Viva Santo Tomas!
Mabuhay ang Tomasinong Nars! 💚💛🙏
