There is no official Thanksgiving Day in the Philippines, like in the US, but I know a lot of Filipino families are feeling that thanksgiving spirit this week.
Thank you for your act of love and generosity It extends wide — think of your arms reaching and hugging the other side of the globe. Literally.
SHOUTOUT: To the organizers, the feet and hands and brains and heart of these groups. They did such a *good* job. Everything was so organized and thoughtfully executed. I’m in awe of you. #Kakabilib
