fueled by stories.

We started our work because of the story of the Yangil Tribe and their home. This story has sent us across our country meeting new friends, exploring far-off lands, and most importantly, showing us just how powerful stories are. Stories can change the world-- they're already touching lives.

​

Our goal is to tell the stories of the Philippines to Filipinos, and by doing so, gather more support for our indigenous groups who deserve much more. In sharing the stories of our home, we can get a better understanding of what it means to protect it.
