This March, the Paulinian Volunteers for Community Development celebrated National Women's Month through "Abante, Babae!"—a meaningful appreciation wall/freedom wall activity that honored the strength, resilience, and inspiring contributions of women.

Set up infront of the CDAC office for the whole month, the panel board became a space for heartfelt messages, creative expressions, and tributes to the women who continue to shape our homes, schools, workplaces, and communities.

Through this simple yet powerful initiative, PVCD aimed to promote respect, equality, and empowerment while giving everyone a chance to recognize the women who inspire them every day. May this wall serve as a reminder that every woman's story deserves to be seen, heard, and celebrated.

Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! 🙏🏻
