As a proud enlisted member of the Armed Forces of the Philippines, I am committed to leadership, integrity, and service, guided by a deep belief in justice and respect for all. My journey has demanded resilience and courage, shaping me into someone who stands firm in the face of challenges and hopes to inspire positive change, both in uniform and beyond.

But there’s a personal dream that also keeps my spirit uplifted—a love for baseball that goes back to my childhood, one that has grown into a shared family passion. This October 2025, I have a once-in-a-lifetime chance to fulfill that dream by attending a live Dodgers game in Los Angeles. Seeing players like Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and Kike Hernandez in action at Dodgers Stadium would be incredible, and being part of that electric atmosphere would truly be a highlight in my life.

Yet, this love for the game goes even deeper for us. My husband, a former pitcher and designated hitter during his grade school and high school years, is on the cusp of retirement. And as he transitions from his career, he feels drawn to give back by teaching kids in our community how to play baseball and softball. He wants to pass on the skills and values that baseball once instilled in him: resilience, hard work, and the joy of a shared purpose. This isn’t just about coaching a sport; it’s his way of giving these kids something meaningful, offering them the same confidence and pride that baseball gave him.

For me, having this opportunity to attend a live Dodgers game isn’t just about cheering for a team. It’s a chance to bring that joy and passion back to our community, inspired by an unforgettable experience in Dodgers Stadium. By supporting this dream, you’re helping create a ripple effect—one that reaches beyond just me or my family. You’re supporting a vision that brings strength, hope, and resilience to the next generation of young athletes, who will step up to the plate with new dreams and a belief in their own potential.

Your support can make this journey possible, and with your help, we can bring the spirit of baseball home, planting the seeds of joy and discipline that only the love of the game can offer.
