We started in January 2016 with only 32 entrepreneurs. We support local communities in developing local products.
Local musicians, performers and artists are given a venue to share their creativity, advocacy and talents.
Our team is led by volunteers. Startups test and showcase their products’ marketability during our weekend fairs.
We integrate training and workshops in our initiatives to help equip ourselves and our partners. We believe that equipping stakeholders will pave the way towards sustainable initiatives. Here are some of them:
Plastic Solution

YOUTH FIRST
This is a social conversation wherein the youth, government officials, lawmakers, advocacy champions and target institutions meet and talk together in finding solutions in overcoming social inequalities.
The area of conversation is being prioritized into few categories to give focus and special attention to make it more achievable in a span of 6 years.
The idea is simple, here are our issues, and what can we do to overcome these? As a lawmaker, government official, among others, what can you contribute to help shape the future of the succeeding generation?
