My Heartfelt love and gratitude to Far Eastern University President, Chairman, Board of Trustees, Family and community for believing in my dreams and my mission to plant seeds of hope and inspiration to as many people as we possibly can.

You just never know how your little acts of kindness have a ripple effect in the life of an empoverished child...it happened to me and together let's make it happen to many others.

Please pass it on...

Peace, love and light
