It's good to see that volunteerism is alive in the Philippines.

I had the pleasure of joining a volunteer tree planting activity at Baseco Beach that was organized by BreathePlanetPH under the guidance of DENR (Department of Environment and Natural Resources).

Thanks to the sunny weather, we were able to start early in the morning and avoid the high tide that would have prevented us from continuing the activity.

I only managed to plant 4 seedlings because there were only around 200 seedlings and if I remember correctly the official volunteer head count was almost a hundred.

Most of the people that I have met there have never done any volunteer works or tree planting activities before, so it's good to see them starting now.

Hopefully more people will be able to attend their tree planting activities in the future and I will try my best join them.
