Together as a Community We Can Make a Difference

On Earth Day 2013, we the youths of Tawi-Tawi together with the rest of the community joined hands together with the rest of the world to celebrate Earth Day, and getting involved to Save Mother Earth.  As Youth for Nature, we commit to share our time, efforts and abilities to promote preparedness to climate change and to increase environmental conservation awareness in the coastal communities of our Province in Tawi-Tawi, Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao, Philippines. We understand that it is indeed a climb, but together, we can achieve it and we can make a difference.

With more youth participation to celebrate Earth Hour, more people turned up for this momentous event.  The objective of this event was to send a message of unity with the rest of the world, that no matter where we are, no matter how small our contributions may be to help save Planet Earth, if we work together, we can make a difference.
