Sa pamamagitan ng kanyang mga akda at mapayapang pakikibaka, ginising ni Rizal ang diwa ng nasyonalismo at ipinakita na ang panulat, talino, at malasakit sa kapwa ay makapangyarihang sandata laban sa pang-aapi at kawalan ng katarungan.

Gayunpaman, makalipas ang ilang dekada, patuloy pa ring hinaharap ng sambayang Pilipino ang mga suliraning sumasalamin sa mga babalang isinulat ni Rizal—ang katiwalian, korapsyon, pang-aabuso sa kapangyarihan, at sistemang tunay na nagpapahirap at yumuyurak sa karapatan ng karaniwang mamamayan. Hanggang ngayon, nananatili ang mga suliraning panlipunan na labis na pumipigil sa ganap na pag-unlad at pagbangon ng Pilipinas mula sa pagkakalugmok.

Ngayong taon, ang tema ng paggunita sa kabayanihan ni Rizal ay ‘𝐑𝐢𝐳𝐚𝐥: 𝐒𝐚 𝐩𝐚𝐠𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐨𝐧 𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐠𝐚 𝐌𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐧, 𝐀𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐭 𝐃𝐢𝐰𝐚 𝐦𝐨 𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐮𝐧𝐚𝐲 𝐧𝐚 𝐆𝐚𝐛𝐚𝐲,’ isang panawagan upang ipagpatuloy ang kanyang adhikain para sa isang lipunang pinamumunuan ng katarungan, katotohanan, at kapayapaan. Sa kabila ng lumalaganap na mga suliranin sa ating bansa ngayon, nawa’y lagi nating isabuhay ang mga aral na ipinamalas ni Dr. Jose Rizal—ang kahalagahan ng edukasyon at kolektibong pagkilos ng sambayanang Pilipino, lalo na ng kabataan, na kinilala ni Rizal bilang pag-asa ng bayan para sa makatarungan at malayang lipunan.

Mas lalo nating palalimin ang ating kamalayan at paninindigan laban sa mga hamon na humahadlang sa ating pag-unlad bilang isang malayang bansa. Tulad ni Rizal, ipakita natin ang ating pagmamahal sa bayan sa pamamagitan ng patuloy na pakikibaka laban sa korapsyon at tiyaking mapanagot ang mga lider na taksil sa sambayanan.

𝗔 𝘄𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗲! 🪄💫

On December 18, 2025, the UP Sigma Alpha Nu Sorority Manila had the honor of bringing the girls of Tahanan Sta. Luisa back to Star City after seven years for the annual 𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗛𝗼𝗽𝗲 project. 🎄

For the girls, this was more than just a trip to an amusement park. It was a reminder that they are seen, valued, and loved. Each laugh on the rides, every sparkle in their eyes, and every shared story became a symbol of hope, resilience, and the power of community.

As we celebrate the holiday season, we are reminded that it is in giving that we truly receive. This day was a powerful reminder of our mission to serve and to uplift women. 💝

From the bottom of our hearts, we extend our sincerest gratitude to everyone who believed in this vision and helped make the magic happen. Your generosity, time, and unwavering support transformed a dream into reality and brought smiles that will be cherished for years to come. ❤✨

ΣΑΝ Manila would like to thank the sponsors who made this possible: 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫 𝐂𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐥𝐚, 𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐭𝐲 𝐂𝐚𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥, and 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐅𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬.

In fulfillment of our long-standing commitment to service, compassion, and the uplift of women, the residents of ΣAN Manila proudly present this year’s Christmas outreach for the girls of Tahanan Sta. Luisa (TSL), a recovery center for sexually abused and formerly street-involved children.

This December 18, we hope to finally fulfill the girls’ long-time Christmas wish: a joyful day at 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑 𝐂𝐈𝐓𝐘, filled with rides, laughter, good food, and small gifts prepared just for them. Beyond the celebration, Trinkets of Hope is our way of bringing healing, hope, and lasting memories to these brave young girls.

Bilang isang makabayang lider noong pananakop ng mga Espanyol, kanyang ipinamalas ang matatag na tapang at pagmamahal sa bayan sa pamamagitan ng paglilingkod at pagsasakripisyo para sa kalayaan ng sambayanang Pilipino.

Ilang dekada man ang lumipas, hindi pa rin nakakawala ang mga Pilipino mula sa mga katiwalian, maling pamamalakad, at sistemang patuloy na pinapasan ang ating demokrasya at mga karapatan. Patuloy pa rin tayong minumulto ng mga 𝘨𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘫𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘴 na nagpapalubog sa pondo ng bayan at ng mga pinuno na hindi tunay na sinisilbihan ang taong bayan.

Ngayong taon, ang tema ng paggunita sa kaarawan ni Bonifacio ay ‘𝐈𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐧, 𝐈𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐋𝐚𝐛𝐚𝐧: 𝐊𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐭 𝐊𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐧 𝐊𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚 𝐊𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧,’ isang panawagan upang magkaisa ang mga Pilipino sa pagtutol laban sa korapsyon at pagtindig para sa katotohanan at katarungan. Sa kabila ng mga lumalaganap na suliranin sa ating bansa ngayon, nawa’y lagi nating isapuso ang diwa na ipinamalas ni Bonifacio bilang Ama ng Rebolusyon.

Mas lalo nating patibayin ang ating paninindigan at pakikibaka laban sa mga hamon na humahadlang sa ating pag-unlad bilang isang malayang bansa. Ipamalas natin ang ating pagmamahal sa bayan sa pamamagitan ng paglilingkod sa kapwa nating mga Pilipino. Patuloy tayong tumindig para sa ating mga karapatan, makibaka laban sa maling pamamalakad at katiwalian, at tiyaking mapanagot ang mga lider na taksil sa sambayanan.

Nearly 4.8 million Filipino women aged 18 to 49 have experienced emotional, physical, or sexual violence from their intimate partner or husband, each representing a story that cannot be ignored [1].

Rooted in harmful social norms and systemic gender inequality, violence against women and girls continues to threaten their safety and fundamental human rights. Now, digital tools have been weaponized to target women and girls through cyberbullying, deepfakes, doxxing, and stalking. This vicious cycle continues to take a toll on the victims both online and offline, and it must end.

The 2025 Global Initiative “UNiTE to End Digital Violence against All Women and Girls,” led by UN Women, reminds us that an impactful change is only possible when everyone in all sectors stands united against digital violence and all other forms of abuse against women and girls [2].

Committed to our goal of Uplift of Women, the UP Sigma Alpha Nu Sorority Manila calls on everyone to mobilize our voices and call for collective action to empower survivors, demand justice, and eradicate gender-based violence against women and girls. May this year’s theme also remind us to use digital platforms responsibly by advocating for truth, respect, and protection rather than allowing such spaces to become tools of harm.
