Join us for Four Tuesdays of Giving, starting November 11, leading up to Global Giving Tuesday on December 2 — a month-long celebration of generosity, community, and the UP spirit.
|
| Each Tuesday, we’ll gather in our Virtual Giving Room to trim our holiday tree and decorate the room. Every donation adds a new decoration — from sparkling ornaments to bright garlands to colorful parols and wreaths— symbolizing your support for our scholars and other programs. Together, we’ll watch our goal thermometer fill up! Whether you give a little or a lot, every decoration you add helps light up the season for our UP community. |
Let’s make this Global Giving Tuesday truly meaningful — one ornament, one act of generosity at a time. |

GIVING TUESDAYS UPDATES We are excited to share highlights from our Four Tuesdays of Giving campaign!

A Special Thank You to Our First Four Major DonorsTo express our gratitude to the first four donors who contribute $1,000 or more to our Four Tuesdays of Giving campaign, noted muralist and UP alumna Venazir Hannah Martinez is gifting each of them a signed, original art print of her newest mural, Pandanggo sa Ilaw. Created during her 2025 HCUAP International Artist Residency in Pittsburgh, Venazir’s 20-by-40-foot mural portrays a Filipina performing the traditional Pandanggo sa Ilaw, balancing candles as a symbol of the many influences shaping Filipino identity. The work weaves together Filipiniana dress, indigenous textiles, colonial history, and the evolution of Folk Catholicism into one powerful visual narrative.
Venazir Martinez We extend our thanks to Venazir and to our early major donors for their generosity and support. |
