To become the President of TAPAK on my second year, it felt unrealistic to me but knowing that the current situation needs not only words to motivate and help them, I will ensure that TAPAK will be able to work and act out our Mission. Starting as an editor for the organization's Anniversary Video before finally becoming an official member right after the said event, I am thankful to par [founder] whom shown me a new world where I can help those who are in need by means of being a youth who knows what truly is MALASAKIT. ヾ(≧▽≦*)o

Being a Tapak member is a heartwarming moment in my life. I'd be able to learn and understand the real world. I'd get to see the things that made me realize the importance of the things I have right now. Furthermore, I'd had the members, whom I can count on during the times where I felt gloomy. I was beyond happy to be part of TAPAK

"Trust the Process"
I have been a member of TAPAK since grade 10. I was hesitant at first knowing that being a member has a big responsibility and as a lazy and irresponsible student, I thought that it would not be my cup of tea. TAPAK helps me improve myself and my comembers were the ones who helped me get out of my comfort zone. I experienced a lot of things in this organization, even the things that I thought I would not do or experience like talking in front of many people. I learned to socialize, help people, and be the voice of my fellow youth.

"In order to succeed, you must be willing to experience failure "
The first time I joined TAPAK, I was not a member yet. TAPAK went to the Guitasin and Edwin asked if I could join them for the pictorial or the documentary wherein I enjoyed everything as we have a shuttle ready to go to Guitasin to start the program for the kids with fun games and exciting prizes such as clothes, foods, and money as we then made the kids watch some movies. Right after the program, Edwin asked me if I wanted to become a TAPAK member to which I responded yes which resulted in me to be a part of the San Lorenzo Ruiz Mission Encounter last year too.

"Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, but learning to dance in the rain."
Becoming a TAPAK member far exceeds my expectation about the capabilities that I can do in my life. I wasn't open to others, and here I am, joining an organization that will help change people's lives, even myself. I am proud that I have done something like this in my life because I get to share and influence others about the great things that God has done to all of us. Throughout living my life, having this opportunity will help me; grow, nourish, and allocate my experiences. As they all say, "Every experience makes us grow."

TAPAK members are very friendly to communicate with and I've noticed that we more determined to help other people and willing to build a voice to speak to others who needed to be and what needed to be heard.

APAK happens to solidify my resolve in reaching out to the rest of the community. It brings me acknowledgement for the youth as it supports and nurture the neglected.

"A kind heart is a fountain of gladness, making everything in its vicinity freshen into smiles.” - Washington Irving
Being a part and a member of this organization (TAPAK) is one of the things that taught me and gave me different experiences about life and being an instrument of Christ. One of the experiences that I will never forget is the time when we were able to give joy to children, children who continued to believe in God and trust in its instruments that they will not be abandoned despite the hardships they go through. This organization not only revolves around helping the needy but at the same time it also gradually shapes ourselves to be a youth who is ready to give hope to those who are losing hope without fear in our heart and in the passing trials because Christ is already by our side. These experiences are priceless and I’m thankful that I was given the opportunity to experience these things.

"The noblest thing you can do is to be successful in any aspects in life. :))"
For me, it always been a privilege being a member of tapak since it improves a lot of things that I certainly didn't know about myself. This organization helped me to develop the skills I haven't discovered yet and it really brings out the best in me. Being the president of tapak is a big step for me and I can literally take advantage of this to make myself more ready about the world we are facing. I am really glad I have found this family that can bring out the best within every youth who wanted to help others.

"Learn to take risks but always be logical"
As a Tapak member I feel delighted that in my own ways I am able to participate with my peers into making a beautiful environment filled with positivity and malasakitan. Since I was a kid I always go with the flow of what the universe will give and wont, and right now I feel relaxed along with the currents and the waves.

Edwin Bañas Jr.
Founder of TAPAK
"Life is not a problem to be solved but a mystery to be lived."
I have formed the organization called TAPAK because of the discernment to help those who are in need especially those who are less fortunate. With TAPAK, there's only a goal that we would want to accomplish; to help everyone who's in trouble and in need especially during this time of the pandemic.
