PASCGGI Raises $3,500 for Typhoon Tino Relief and School Support in the Philippines

Posted on by maryrose

On 23 November 2025, the Filipino-Australian community came together in a remarkable display of unity, generosity, and cultural pride as the Philippine Australian Social Club for Good Governance Incorporated (PASCGGI) hosted its very first Christmas Party at Pabico. The event, filled with camaraderie, entertainment, and community spirit, successfully raised $3,500.00 through a charity auction—funds that have since been channelled to two designated beneficiaries in the Philippines.

Led by the organisation’s dedicated officers, PASCGGI ensured that every dollar donated made its way to communities most affected by the devastating impacts of Typhoon Tino, which recently struck various regions in the Visayas. Following careful assessment and coordination with local contacts, the funds were divided between two locations:

  • $2,000 allocated to Cebu, supporting immediate Typhoon Tino relief operations

  • $1,500 allocated to Leyte, directed towards outreach activities and the completion of a kindergarten school ceiling damaged during the disaster

These contributions aim to provide both urgent assistance and long-term support to families rebuilding their lives.

A Community Organisation with Heart and Purpose

The Philippine Australian Social Club for Good Governance Inc. is a community-based organisation registered in New South Wales under the Associations Incorporation Act 2009 (Registration No. INC2500591). PASCGGI was established with the mission of promoting unity, empowerment, and accountability among Filipino-Australians while strengthening relationships within the broader Australian community.

The association recognises the significant contributions of Filipino migrants to Australia and strives to provide a supportive, empowering environment for its members. At the centre of its advocacy is a commitment to justice, equality, and genuine community upliftment. The organisation firmly believes that no family or individual should be left behind—especially in the face of discrimination, systemic disadvantage, or personal hardship.

Through its programs and outreach initiatives, PASCGGI works to ensure every person in the community has access to equal opportunity and fair treatment. This includes providing practical support, advocacy, and pathways to empowerment for those who need it most.

Commitment to Disaster Relief and Global Filipino Solidarity

Beyond its local community work, PASCGGI is deeply connected to the Philippines and remains steadfast in supporting Filipino families affected by calamities. The organisation actively raises funds and mobilises resources to assist areas struck by natural disasters, including typhoons, floods, and other emergencies.

Working in collaboration with local leaders, volunteers, and grassroots organisations, PASCGGI helps deliver emergency aid, relief goods, financial assistance, and community rebuilding resources. Every initiative is carried out by volunteers who generously give their time, expertise, and compassion to uplift those facing adversity.

The recent support sent to Cebu and Leyte through the Christmas charity event stands as another testament to PASCGGI’s ongoing mission of compassion, service, and global Filipino unity.

Leadership Dedicated to Service

The success of PASCGGI’s initiatives is made possible by a committed team working tirelessly behind the scenes:

  • Chairman: Maryrose Salubre

  • President: Cherfield Metilla

  • Vice President: Linie Pates Slade

  • Secretary: Mhila Carson

  • Treasurer: Sandra A-tomenio Hughes

Their shared passion for community development and strong advocacy for good governance continues to inspire Filipino-Australians across New South Wales.

Heartfelt Gratitude to the Community

PASCGGI extends its sincerest appreciation to everyone who attended and supported the Christmas charity event. The success of the fundraiser would not have been possible without the generosity of sponsors, donors, volunteers, and bidders who participated in the auction.

The organisation expresses its deepest thanks to the Filipino-Australian community for their unwavering support, compassion, and commitment to making a difference. Each contribution—big or small—helped bring hope and assistance to families in Cebu and Leyte who are recovering from the devastation of Typhoon Tino.

As PASCGGI continues its mission to promote empowerment, unity, and good governance, the organisation looks forward to expanding its outreach efforts and strengthening its ties with both the local and global Filipino community.

Posted on by maryrose

In a heartwarming victory for Mrs Universe Official and Human Rights, CEO Maryrose Salubre recently spearheaded a charitable initiative that raised $1,500 to secure the release of inmates who had served their time. This philanthropic effort resulted in the pardon of 50-plus inmates just before Christmas at Lipa Jail in Batangas, Philippines, with further releases planned through ongoing fundraising efforts.

The impactful event occurred on December 17, 2023, at the prestigious Sir Stamford Hotel Circular Quay, where a community of supporters came together to contribute to the noble cause.

The Dress that Made a Difference

The centerpiece of this humanitarian initiative was a remarkable dress worn by Mrs Universe Official CEO Maryrose Salubre. The dress not only showcased elegance but also symbolized hope and freedom for those seeking a second chance in life. The funds raised through the dress contributed significantly to the successful release of inmates.

Freedom Granted

Before the year-end festivities, more than 50 inmates were granted freedom, thanks to the generosity and determination of those involved in the fundraising campaign. The impact on these individuals’ lives is immeasurable, giving them the opportunity to reintegrate into society and rebuild their futures.

Contributors and Human Rights Advocates

This successful initiative was made possible by the collaboration of dedicated individuals and human rights advocates who generously contributed to the cause. Among the notable contributors were Minerva SoyLatino, a fervent human rights defender, who donated $700 and now owns the gown named after the phoenix – a symbol of resilience and rebirth.

Other key contributors include Melai Peralta, Maryrose Salubre herself, Miel N Ika (Mrs. Universe Official 2023 & Youth Human Rights President), @alister (Human Rights Admin), Ceres Calizo Ledesma (Mrs. Elite Global Universe 2022), and Brian Worrell Frugtniet, all of whom made significant donations ranging from $100 to $200.

In a remarkable show of support, Mrs Elite Universe Eimee Cragun stepped forward with a substantial donation of 50,000 pesos to the cause. Her generosity adds a new dimension to the campaign, significantly boosting the funds available for inmate releases and emphasizing the widespread impact achievable through collaborative efforts.

Looking Ahead

The success of this initiative underscores the power of collective efforts in creating positive change. As Mrs Universe Official and Human Rights continue their mission, the funds raised will contribute to additional inmate releases, fostering a sense of hope and justice within the community.

This victory stands as a testament to the commitment of those who believe in the transformative power of compassion, empathy, and human rights. Mrs. Universe Official CEO Maryrose Salubre and her team are determined to carry this momentum into the new year, striving for a world where everyone is afforded the opportunity for redemption and a fresh start.
