Support Jeepney 2 Jax: Celebrate & Give Back
Support Jeepney 2 Jax: A Celebration of Filipino Culture & Community!

Jeepney2Jax is back! This weekend-long event, hosted by the University of North Florida's Filipino Student Association, is dedicated to celebrating Filipino culture, music, and community—while giving back to those in need.

This year, we are fundraising to cover event costs and donate directly to Gawad Kalinga, a non-profit dedicated to ending poverty in the Philippines. Your contributions will help us secure artists, equipment, and venue expenses, ensuring that as much of the proceeds as possible go towards Gawad Kalinga’s mission of building sustainable communities for those in need.

Why Donate?

✔️ Help us bring the Jeepney 2 Jax experience to life

✔️ Support a cause that provides housing, livelihood, and education for underprivileged communities in the Philippines

✔️ Ensure we can bring together amazing artists and cultural experiences

Every donation, no matter the size, makes a HUGE difference. All proceeds beyond event costs will go directly to Gawad Kalinga.

Be part of something bigger—support Jeepney2Jax today!

Maraming Salamat!

Donate now and help make Jeepney2Jax 2025 a success!

Help the Children of Gawad Kalinga
Our Gawad Kalinga village in El Dorado, Paranaque City is home for 23 poor families with disabled kids. The kids are mostly with cerebral palsy and require physical therapy to improve their mobility and limb functions. The kids’ families are unable to pay for regular therapy sessions due to financial incapacity.

The kids are going thru regular physical therapy (PT) sessions with licensed professional therapists. A volunteer rehab doctor comes at least once a month. The therapists come into the village and work on the kids at least 3 times a week. We pay the PTs P650 (~$13.11 USD) per day; with 2 PTs, we spend P1,300 (~$26.22 USD) per day-sessions. The funds for the PT came from generous friends and former colleagues. The parents help by providing meals and snacks for the PTs.

We still need funds to sustain the PT sessions for at least 2 years; maybe even up to several years.

Gawad Kalinga is a Philippine-based movement that aims to end poverty for 5 million families, by first restoring the dignity of the poor. Our website is http://www.gk1world.com/home.

Join Me in Fighting Hunger and Poverty in the Philippines
Help Build Homes, Fight Hunger, and Change Lives with me for Gawad Kalinga

Hello everyone!

I am fundraising for Gawad Kalinga, a Philippine-based non-profit movement dedicated to ending poverty by building homes, developing sustainable communities, and fighting hunger. Their mission is simple yet powerful: to give care to those who need it most.

A family struggles to survive when basic needs go unmet. A child cannot dream of a brighter future when they are hungry or without a safe home. That’s why I am passionate about supporting these families, so they can build a foundation for a better life, access education, and break the cycle of poverty.

Gawad Kalinga has already fed 100,000 hungry children on school days, giving them the nourishment they need to grow and learn. But there are still many more who need our help.

Every donation, big or small, brings hope and joy to these communities. Your kindness can put food on a child's plate, build a home for a family, and create opportunities that last a lifetime.

If you can, please consider donating—together, we can make a difference.

Thank you for your support!
