Jae’s 27th Birthday 2025

You are invited but… this year has a different story!

Every year when my birthday comes around, I get excited in planning trips, celebrations, and surprises. But…

this year feels different. I realized I don’t need a trip or a big party. What I truly want is something more meaningful, something that will outlive just one day of celebration.

Earlier this year, we adopted Fendi. Since then, my heart has only grown softer for animals. Around our home, we’ve been feeding strays: Ellie, Mr. T, Misoup, Queenie, Friday, Bruno, Cyclops, Benji and so many others are just trying their best to survive. This birthday is for them, and for all the animals who deserve love, food, and safety.

That’s why this year, my birthday is not about me, it's about them, and every animal out there fighting for another day.

Hello, Mr. T! 👋🏼

Hello, Friday! 😴

Our goal is to raise ₱20,000 for animals in need — but let's dream bigger together.

I'll match the first ₱10,000 donated, which means every peso you contribute gets doubled: your ₱500 becomes ₱1,000, your ₱1,000 becomes ₱2,000.

There's no limit to the impact we can make — the more we raise, the more lives we save. Surpassing our ₱20,000 goal is surely better since it means we get to open our hearts to even more animals who need love. Together, we can fill their bowls with meals, heal their hurts, and surround them with the care they've been longing for. Your kindness is the key that unlocks hope for these sweet souls.

Our Beneficiaries

  • God's Home of Refuge (Lemery, Batangas)

    This one feels close to home. They’ve been quietly rescuing, feeding, and rehoming strays with so much persistence. They don’t always get the spotlight, but they keep showing up every day for animals who would otherwise remain unseen. Supporting them means directly helping strays in our own community.

  • Happy Animals Club (Davao)

    Every time I see their updates, I’m amazed at the patience and gentleness of this rescue team. They take in the most broken and frightened animals, and with steady care, transform them back into beings full of trust and joy. Their stories remind me that healing takes time and they’re willing to give it.

  • Strays Worth Saving

    This group has a special place in my heart because they take on the rescues that seem impossible, the harshest cases, the ones most people would give up on. Yet somehow, they pull life back from the edge. I’ve been a supporter since I first became a fur mom, because their courage to face the hardest battles is nothing short of inspiring.

How It Works

The support will be a mix of goods and cash:

  • For nearby shelters like God's Home of Refuge, we’ll deliver goods like food and supplies. We've secured wholesale pricing from trusted suppliers, which means no retail markups — ensuring your donations stretch as far as possible.

  • For shelters that are farther away, we will send financial help so they can cover urgent needs like food, vet bills, and rescues.

And because I want this to be real and transparent, I'll be posting receipts and real-time updates of donations so you can see exactly how your help is being used.

Track The Fundraising Status

Join me on October 5, Sunday at 8AM

We’re planning to personally visit God’s Home of Refuge located in Lemery, Batangas. If you want to do more than just donate, come with us.

Right now, we can only bring 2–3 people in our vehicle. Some friends might have available transportation, but it’s not confirmed yet. So if your heart is saying yes, let me know. I want this to be memorable. We can figure out the details together. Logistics aren’t a big problem when our intention is pure. 💛

As a thank you for joining us, I'll sponsor simple snacks for everyone after our visit to the shelter. It'll be a great way to celebrate the difference we've made together!

When your heart dreams of something good, that becomes the starting point, never the limit…
SO DREAM BIG.

No gifts for me this year. Just this one leap of faith because sometimes, the best gift is the one we give together.

From the bottom of my heart—and on behalf of Rolex, Tumi, Fendi and so many others, thank you. 🐾💛
