With heavy hearts, we share the passing of our beloved friend, Paolo. He was a gentle soul, a light in our community, and a source of warmth, creativity, and quiet strength.
Paolo’s presence touched many lives—through his kindness, his deep compassion, and the way he held space for others. While words can never fully capture what he meant to us, we hold onto the memories, the laughter, and the love he so freely gave.
Paolo's passing came in the midst of our Kalinong Wellness fundraising efforts to help support his treatment. As we continue with the activities planned for today (July 20), we do so with even more meaning and purpose. All proceeds from the classes, merchandise, and food items will now go toward supporting Paolo’s family, his interment and honoring his memory. Options to donate are also welcome.
We invite our community to come together in remembrance of a friend who gave so much of himself to others. Your presence, your love, and your contributions mean the world.
Thank you for holding Paolo, his loved ones, and our community in your hearts during this time.
With gratitude and love,
Kalinong Wellness & friends of Paolo through the National Youth Consortium for Reproductive Health.
