Profriends Supports GalingPinas’ Alab Fest Community-Led Fun Run
Profriends Kapitbuhays in Cavite are gearing-up for the AlabFest Community-Led Fun Run this June 2025. Organized by GalingPinas’ youth volunteers, the event will be one of their main projects for the year that upholds their commitment to build a thriving community by empowering and engaging fellow youths through relevant, community-based, and high-impact activities. More than just a race, the Fun Run is a statement of how young individuals may “ACT ON” to continue to inspire their peers and lead initiatives grounded in relevance, impact, and community spirit.
AlabFest Community-Led Fun Run is expected to be participated by Lancaster New City residents, nearby communities, Profriends employees and other stakeholders. “Harnessing the energy of the 21st century, the youth now express themselves in vibrant ways--- through movement, creativity, and meaningful participation,” says Erika Clavido, On-Ground Partners Culture Development Head. “We are expecting to raise enough money to support various GalingPinas youth projects, as a result of this community fun run,” she added.
Proceeds of this event will support 30 village youth groups with leadership and community building grants, help organize the GalingPinas Youth Leadership Camp that will be attended by 240 young individuals across Cavite, fund Youth4Youth grants to aid local barangay/public school youth, and assist an identified institution dedicated to promoting youth welfare and development for an outreach project.
Profriends, its employees and other stakeholders support the youth in this initiative by volunteering their time and participating in the run.
