National Heroes Day🇵🇭

Today we commemorate the bravery and sacrifice of our heroes who helped us to obtain our nation's freedom and independence. In a time where freedom is challenged, abused, and manipulated even, these faces are timeless reminders that being a modern-day hero means fervent action and conviction. They remind us that greatness is never fame, but a responsibility to do good and be good for the sake of our nation.

Be the hero you need, Aurista!

On August 21, 1983, it was not the scorching sun that woke the sleeping Filipinos, but the deafening gunshot that echoed across the Manila International Airport and the entire Philippines.

The assassination of former Senator Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr. may have ended his battle against Martial Law, but for the Filipino people, it was a wake-up call; a catalyst that became the new-found driving force behind the fight for the country’s freedom.

A dark scene that shed light to the hidden atrocities of the Marcos regime.

A bloody death that gave birth to the bloodless campaign against dictatorship.

42 years after that fateful day, let us be reminded that the Philippines is worth fighting for—“The Filipino is worth dying for.”
