Hope in Action The hard work that bears the fruit of the organization’s mission requires THP’s five departments operating without a hitch. This is only made possible by the joint leadership of five vice presidents. All of whom with a singular purpose— to share hope. In this article, we interviewed THP’s vice presidents for A.Y. 20202021 to learn more about who they are, what drives them forward, and the most memorable moment they have experienced throughout their stay in THP.
Meet the VP for Hospitals, Julia Rubinos Julia Feliz L. Rubinos, a BA Organizational Communication student, thought long and hard before running for VP for Hospitals. When asked why she had run, she shared that the previous leaders of the organization, specifically the EB of AY 2019-2020, set a great example for her. Julia states, “Nothing can truly beat the purpose of loving and caring for the kids.” She wanted to serve the organization in greater ways, and found that running for VP for Hospitals was the very thing that can fulfill this.
MEET THE THP VPS AND SEC-GEN by Clariel Llenado
With all of the life-changing experiences she’s had with THP, she finds it hard to discuss only one moment that cemented the importance of THP for its members and, most especially, the kids. She recalled her very first hospital visit as the most memorable. If there was ever a word that captures the essence of her experience, it would be belonging. “You need to make the decisions for you to get to that point, and boy, was I at the happiest point in my college life,” Julia says. Seeing the kids and their colorful drawings almost made her cry, but she was happy to have been given a chance to know what she had wanted and still want to do in the future— share hope. Catch the work of the Hospitals Department on the 1st and 2nd issues of the official THP newsletter, The Hope Front. Feel free to share the publication to your family and friends!
Meet the VP for Finance, Eunice Dycueco Eunice Alexis C. Dycueco, a BS Speech Pathology student, takes great inspiration from her grandmother, Mamita, as to why she had run for the position she is currently serving. Eunice shares, “She [Mamita] was diagnosed with cancer last 2017, and I will never forget the number of foundations that supported her as she went on her journey alone in the US.” Eunice wants nothing more than to pay it forward, and what better way to do so than with THP. “Love your work enough to do your best, and trust yourself once you’ve given your best.”
She calls on THPeeps to constantly believe in their abilities and to love the work that they do. Notably, she discusses that this includes knowing one’s limitations. Eunice says, “a big part of believing in oneself is admitting when you’ve reached your limit and trusting in your peers.” She has a great deal of love for her fellow THPeeps, often referring to them as her THPamily, which she finds strange but endearing considering she has only ever met them online. She encourages THPeeps to run for positions in the Executive Board, though scared or intimidated. She shares that, “even entering elections is a HUGE learning experience,” and that when one feels lost, whether in organizational work or not, it is a helpful reminder to repeat the following wise words: “What you are feeling is completely normal and you are totally on the right track.”
Julia, though overseeing new projects for THP (such as this THP newsletter), is also proud of her hobbies this remote set-up which included surpassing level 1959 in Candy Crush and exercising through yoga which she recommends for relaxation.
Though currently working with heads of the Hope Bazaar and the Hopescapades, Eunice still finds time to garden and sew with the new remote set-up. She is also currently residing with and looking after her grandparents. She is the only grandchild on her mother’s side of the family. She notes that her life-changing THP moment is still unfolding right now as she leads the Finance Department amidst a global pandemic. She also praises her fellow EB members for their support in this endeavor. “This bond that my EB and I have with each other goes beyond inside jokes and quality time.” With all the friends that she has made and all the kids she was able to help and are still helping, she recounts her experiences only as worthwhile.
Watch out for the last two batches of the Finance department's The Hope Bazaar this May 2021. Eunice is also inviting THPeeps to join the upcoming event The Hopescapades on May 2830, 2021. She hints at a mini-concert and, hopefully, a surprise partner for the event.
Meet the VP for Advocacy, Alyssa Morabe Alyssa Marie C. Morabe knew from the very beginning of her THP stay that she already wanted to become an EB member. Due to her commitments to her council position in her course BS Public Health back in 2019, she had to postpone her plans. She says, “I knew I wouldn’t be able to give my all, so I waited patiently for the perfect timing, and luckily, God answered.” She shares that the tasks of an EB member seldom feel like work since the environment THP fosters is uplifting and positive. However, she does acknowledge the difficulty of balancing organizational work, academic requirements, and personal commitments. Alyssa says, “If you feel like you can no longer handle the stress and everything is just too overwhelming, please don’t be afraid to seek help from anyone—your family, friends, or even your orgmates from THP.” Like her other EB members, she finds comfort and home in the THPamily. “You can make THP your home by reaching out to us too.”
Alyssa continues her projects for the Advocacy department without impeding her fitness routine. She has recently tried yoga, jogging, and even some exercises from the popular fitness YouTuber, Chloe Ting. She admits timing has been difficult, but any chance she can slide a workout in, she does.

PAGE | 03 Charisse says, “In this way, everything’s all clear right from the start, and everyone, including yourself, has a clear idea of what to expect from you.”
“Clearly define to yourself [...] what you can or cannot do and what you will or will not do.”
When asked about the life-changing moment that she had with THP, she mirrors the response of her fellow EB members. “There are so many life-changing moments in THP; it’s honestly so hard to choose just one.” She recalls her last hospital visit before the start of the pandemic. “I remember getting teary-eyed because there was this kid [that] cries hysterically every time she sees even a glimpse of the nurse. [...] She’s so tired of the injections. About three people had to restrain her, myself included, when her therapy was about to start.” She mentions that this moment grounded her and solidified her intention of becoming a doctor. Her whole experience in THP has been a rollercoaster, but she is far from getting off the ride. The Advocacy Department has recently concluded its Hope is in the Hair, collecting 30 hair donations for THP’s beneficiaries. Alyssa is also excited to announce Welcome Hope, which is a grand one-day open house event for the organization. THPeeps and non-THPeeps alike are welcome to join, as the event aims to widen the audience reach of THP’s advocacy and projects. The event is the collaborative effort of the Advocacy, Hospitals, and Finance Departments. Everyone is encouraged to join the Zoom event, which will be held on May 8, 2021.
Meet the VP for Formations, Charisse del Castillo
Meet the Secretary-General, Bianca Pineda Bianca Alexandra Pineda, a future Doctor of Dental Medicine, knew she wanted to join THP even before taking her college entrance exams. She believed in the organization's advocacy so much so that she even made a deal with herself that she would take any chance to promote its events in the best way that she possibly can. She thanks her fellow THPeeps for allowing her to fulfill this and for welcoming her with open arms. She deviates from the saying, “do what you love, and you’ll never work a day in your life.” She states that “[d]oing something you love still requires effort, thought, and if what you love is serving the organization, then so is your best!” She advises THPeeps to consider making organizational work a routine alongside personal errands and academic activities. "Simply put it, the first step to balancing your duties is choosing to do them despite the work,” she states.
Charisse is currently working with various committee heads on three different projects. The first two, Count ME In and Culminating Night, aim to strengthen THPeeps relations, especially now that the member interactions are confined to online means. She also is giving opportunities for THPeeps to become active leaders with the help of the THS: Hope Leads team. She is grateful for all the members of the Formations Department that stepped up to the plate and are currently leading the said projects. This includes the heads of the Count Me In team, Bianca Ko and Kevin Palay, the heads of the Culminating Night team, Tala Austria and Francheska de Guzman, and the heads of the THS: Hope Leads team, Marc Marquez and Patricia Solisa. In her downtime, she still continues to keep herself busy by crocheting. She has even started an online crochet store on Instagram (@chazzy.ph). She also professes her love for spicy food.
Charisse C. del Castillo, a student from BA Philippine Arts, grew from being a marketing committee head of Dance for Hope 2020 to being the VP for Formations in a relatively short amount of time. She mentions that a big reason for her campaign was the nice and accommodating atmosphere that the EB of AY 2019-2020 provided for all the members. She says, “I wanted to share that experience with everyone in the [organization], to make everyone feel like they have a home in THP.”
To her, every moment in THP is life-changing. She realized the depth of the organizational work she participates in, from a hospital visit down to a general assembly. Charisse states, “In my 2 years in THP, I’ve never met anyone in the organization who grudgingly does his or her tasks, or doesn’t have the passion for the advocacy.” She describes her experiences as fruitful, as these have brought her a family with genuinely kind and like-minded people.
She imparts some knowledge on future EB members and even students who struggle balancing organizational, academic, and personal requirements. She emphasizes the need to set boundaries for oneself and account for one’s strengths and weaknesses.
"For THPeeps, feel free to join the Count ME In conversations occurring weekly in The Hope Project’s private FB Group. Keep updated as well on the official THP AY 20202021 Messenger Group Chat."
Seemingly well-versed in the arts, Bianca admits that she did not explore it before college. She only ever considered arts and creativity in the context of school requirements. It still stuns her to realize that three years later, she would be overseeing the production of publications in THP, which she regards as a well-established organization. She shares that the remote set-up has afforded her more time to read and doodle with pen and paper. She is grateful to have added these two activities to her daily routine. She recounts the moments that kids would look up to her, smile, and ask for her to join them in play or conversations. “The way their faces light up at seeing people other than doctors just hits differently. You see how happy they are to see you, and sometimes it’s just their first time seeing you!” These were the heartwarming moments that changed her life.

THE ADVOCACY BLOOMS:
THP prepares for Welcome Hope by John Magnaye
With changing times come new beginnings. While the global pandemic turns the world into a bleak and uncertain field, hope blooms within each struggle like tulips in springtime. Every smile from a kid and every helping hand shines a bright new color to light up a healing world.
Open-house events are not uncommon to THP. In fact, its annual equivalents launched prior to the pandemic involved immersive hospital visits with non-THPeeps. The yearly project aimed to provide outsiders with insightful glimpses on the everyday life of kids in the hospital setting and on the front lines of THP’s advocacy and mission.
This is the vision of The Hope Project in organizing Welcome Hope: an online open house gathering set to launch on May 8, 2021. The one-day event aims to strengthen the organization’s advocacy of providing psychosocial support for the kids by promoting awareness about pediatric cancer through reaching out to people from all walks of life, THPeeps and non-THPeeps alike. Spearheaded by Danielle de Guzman,
According to an interview with Sitty, one of the co-heads of Welcome Hope, the public interest sparked by the project Hope Is In The Hair has become an opportune moment to revive the external engagement project. Hope Is In The Hair was a resounding success for THP in that it garnered inquiries about donations as well as on the organization’s membership process and future projects. The huge engagement then paved the way in welcoming an opportunity to further THP’s advocacy.
Mikaila Reyes, and Sitty Montañer, the event is a collaborative project of the finance,
advocacy,
and
hospitals
departments. The initiative looks forward to the specific aim of building rapport and
coordinating
with

people and organizations and garnering support

importantly, Welcome Hope is expected to inform people about the current state of children diagnosed with cancer during the pandemic and to promote awareness on the advocacy of child psychosocial upliftment during these trying times.
However, the current remote setting proved to be difficult for the project to be executed. The firsthand experience that open house projects’ hospital visits offer the public could not be safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. This was the primary challenge for the feasibility of this project.

To give a little flavor to the party, the coheads decided to add the theme of the cartoon Strawberry Shortcake to invoke a feeling of hopeful nostalgia from the various guests that the project aims to reach. The light-hearted, sweet candy atmosphere aims to remind the people of the kids and the things that make them happy. This way, Sitty notes, the project can reach out to people of different backgrounds while staying loyal to its cause.
Featured in the program are the insights of several experts such as Prof. Nina Nerissa Sumpaico-Jose, a certified child life specialist and a core member of Kythe who shall talk about the current status of psychosocial development of children during the pandemic. Along with other speakers, these discussions are expected to stimulate better understanding and encourage public concern on the current plight of pediatric patients who continue to fight despite their struggles having been bolstered by the pandemic.
Besides the enlightening talks, Welcome Hope participants can also expect entertaining games and raffle draws. Attendance means a chance to win raffle prizes from the event’s donors, partners, and sponsors.
Sitty Montañer
When asked about her personal expectations on the project’s outcome, Sitty notes “As long as we can help the kids and inspire people to lend a hand, that’s a win for this project. Because at the end of the day, our advocacy is not limited within the organization, but translates to people’s everyday actions.”
The Hope Project envisions a community that, having been inspired by the kids’ hopeful struggle, continues to further the advocacy of inspiring hope for the kids even in their smallest actions and everyday habits. These little things will be the sunshine for the smiles that always continue to blossom. Because at the end of the day, even in the darkest times, it all goes back to hope.
“At the end of the day, our advocacy is not limited within the organization, but also translates to people’s everyday actions” - Sitty Montañer, Project Co-Head

ACLE 2021:
Reconnect with Hope After sharing hope and renewing values, the last featured event, ACLE 2021: Reconnect with Hope, circles back to THP’s roots. Through the recounts of the experiences of guests Timmy Vista, Reena Reyes, Marion Navarro, Novaya Dolor, Mikaela Pascual, Tia Leuenberger, Kent Salvador and Chrizel Madlangbayan, THPeeps revisited what brought them to the organization, who they are doing this for, as well as the culture of the university and its connection to THP.
Partner institutions Silungan ng Pagasa and Kythe Foundation also took part in helping the participants reconnect with hope despite the confine of the new normal. In general, Ugnayan 2021 was able to help the THPeeps reconnect with each other and remind them of the organization’s main purpose, to #InspireHope #ForTheKids.

EVENT REPORTS by Genli Binangbang With #ShareHope, THP Website release, and ACLE 2021, The Hope Project embraced April with events primarily focused on member and social engagement.
#ShareHope
Spearheaded by THP members Seijiro Ogata and Micah Mandanas, the organization kick-started the month with #ShareHope, a week-long social media campaign that aimed to raise awareness about THP’s advocacy and official donation line, Gift of Hope. The campaign comprised a series of challenges announced every day at 8 in the evening, with Facebook and Tiktok being the main social media platforms for the participants’ entry. Some of the themes for the challenges were #ChildhoodCancer, where participants made Tiktok videos about pediatric cancer awareness in the Philippines, and #WeAreTHP, where participants played a bingo game about their experiences in the organization. Essentially, the main highlight of the event was encouraging the participants to share their own form of hope beyond the screen, and while the first few days were slow, a rise of engagement was seen because of the organizers’ efforts of monitoring and disseminating information.
By the end of the campaign, it was realized that hope, in any size, shape, or form, is something that definitely reaches out to other people and encourages them to do the same.
THP Website THP kept the ball rolling through the release of its most-awaited website. Project heads Joan Agustin and Kristina Jao led the creation of the THP website which serves as the organization’s main database. It contains a summary of THP’s projects since 2018, the organization’s vision and mission, partner institutions, and modes of donation. In general, the main purpose of the THP website is to provide an accessible overview of THP for other people, especially future partners and potential donors. It can be accessed by visiting thehopeprojectupm.wixsite.com/my-site. Building the website from scratch, compiling information, and organizing a brief and comprehensive content were not easy feats, but the biggest challenge lies in promoting the website as a platform and integrating future projects on the site. Nevertheless, the proponents believe that these challenges awaken a sense of responsibility and renew the essence of volunteerism--both important values for upholding the organization’s cause.

Start the Light, Be the Light By Sophia Gapuz
Taking the first step and starting new beginnings may never be easy, especially when faced with challenges. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought upon multiple adversities including the struggle in reaching out to others while keeping up with the daily obligations in school and at home. One may wonder, I want to step out of my boundaries, to lead, and to share hope, but how? Am I even capable of doing that? With a heart of a THPeep, Mikaila Monica Julianne C. Reyes, a first-year BA Behavioral Science student, starts her journey, igniting her light that radiates to others. She joined The Hope Project early this academic year with an indefinite idea of what will come her way. In an interview with Mikaila, she describes how hope exists in the little things. May it be in art, music, or food, hope is found as people continue to pursue their interests and desires despite difficult journeys or unsupportive environments. Mikaila also believes, "If only everyone would be kinder to each other, the world would be better.” Sadly, reality hits her, where people come from both desirable and unfortunate backgrounds with different experiences and attitudes that shape them to become different people. But this did not hinder Mikaila from being the light that she is now. She mentions, "I don't want to be indifferent about these situations happening around us." This motivated her to become the light of hope whom people will encounter and realize that good people still exist. From little acts of kindness such as greeting our Ate's and Kuya's who work as janitors or guards in our schools, hope flourishes and proliferates. As a student, Mikaila also has her share of struggles, especially with feeling overwhelmed by the number of academic requirements along with other endeavors. Being a light to others when you feel like being in the dark may suddenly be of great difficulty. However, as Mikaila continues to smile and greet the school staff, hope becomes reciprocal. The smile she gives brings hope to others while the pleasure she takes from this act becomes her hope to continue amid difficulties and challenges. Taking the first step in giving hope is crucial as well as taking the succeeding steps; however, it becomes a reward in itself that is immeasurable and priceless.
Continuing her journey as a THP member, Mikaila was invited to be one of the project heads of the “Welcome Hope”, an open house on the identity and advocacy of THP. The opportunity sets her on another journey to help inspire others in giving hope.
FRONT
PAGE | 11
Mikaila shares three key methods in organizing and implementing a successful project:
1
Delegate the tasks well
In distributing the tasks to the project members, trust should be built, where they may work independently without putting too much pressure.
2
Prioritize
Knowing which tasks are needed to be accomplished first and which are optional helps the project to progress smoothly.
3
Know your purpose
Simplifying the objectives of the project to its main purpose is especially useful to prevent the project from becoming too complicated and unmanageable. Additional inputs and adjustments may be better pursued once the foundation is concrete. During this time, giving light to others may be more of a challenge given the unforeseen circumstances and adjustments. Leading a project may already be difficult, and working with people you just met online may require more effort. Mikaila also emphasizes the difficulty in balancing academics, extra-curricular activities, and personal life. However, when we grab the opportunity to give hope and regularly go back to our purpose, these struggles may soon be stepping stones toward success. A simple smile also goes a long way. As Mikaila experienced in THP, the members are consistently nice and calm but with an appropriate level of assertiveness, which builds good rapport and influences a positive mindset toward accomplishing a successful project.
Overall, Mikaila hopes for her fellow freshmen, new THP members, and those who are starting out as leaders to grab opportunities, to take chances, and to serve the people. She encourages everyone to join organizations and accept project tasks, especially those that stimulate interest and self-development, despite being reluctant as these instigate learning, opportunities, and chances to lead and to help others. As Mikaila referenced a message of Judy Hopps from Zootopia, “We have to try to make the world a better place, because change starts within us. It starts with you, it starts with me, it starts with all of us.”
UPCOMING EVENTS by Sophia Gapuz

HOW TO DONATE by Claire Llenado The Hope Project (THP) fervently continues its mission of providing psychosocial support and charitable aid for kids with acute and chronic illnesses. Adapting to the new normal, THP has made the donation process seamlessly safe for both benefactors and beneficiaries. The Gift of Hope (GOH), in collaboration with Crossworld Charity Foundation Inc., is the official donation program of THP. GOH has recently become an open and permanent donation line in order to better support the needs of pediatric cancer patients living in two temporary shelters, Bahay Aruga and Silungan ng Pag-asa . These halfway homes house children and their guardians as they seek medical help in Manila. Both shelters are in need of monetary assistance as they are not funded by nongovernment organizations (NGO) or corporations. These shelters heavily rely on time-to-time donations especially now during the pandemic.
GOH accepts both monetary and non-monetary donations. Those interested in donating may follow the brief procedure below: 1. Choose your preferred mode of donation. a. For non-monetary donations, kindly direct your message to the official Facebook page of THP @TheHopeProjectUPM. b. For monetary donations, kindly choose the preferred mode of donation only from these verified channels: Paymongo (includes credit card, debit card, Grab Pay) donation.ph/thehopeprojectupm BDO Eunice Alexis D. Dycueco 006800179735 G-cash Eunice Alexis C. Dycueco 09356415624 BPI Patricia Mae A. Pangilinan 6556-3461-58 2. Fill out the google form: bit.ly/THP2021-Gift OfHope .
