My birthday fundraiser for Greenpeace

By Rommel Bellosillo

I’m donating my day to fundraise for Greenpeace #BECAUSE I care for this planet.

Presents are always nice but I’d really like you to donate to my #BECAUSE fundraiser for Greenpeace instead.

I’m donating my day because Greenpeace is making a real difference by acting on climate change, working to save our oceans, forests, and other vital ecosystems, and encouraging sustainable consumption and production.

I know my friends, family, and colleagues care about these issues as much as I do, so please help me reach my fundraising goal by making a donation now.

Every gift counts and together, we will have an incredible impact.

As we get closer to my birthday, I will also take you on my personal journey with Greenpeace. How I started from my volunteer years to now working for the organization -my first Climate Rally/March, actions that I participated in and organized, some success stories that I'm so fortunate to be a part of. Greenpeace had given me a platform so that my voice can also be heard.

Philippines Beach Clean Up & Brand Audit

Monday 22nd Feb
One of my most memorable experiences with Greenpeace was joining this project. This was in 2017 at Freedom Island, Parañaque, Metro Manila, Philippines. This was the start of the annual Greenpeace announcement of the top 5 plastic polluters in the world. I also wrote an article on Greenpeace Magazine. https://greenpeacemagazine.tumblr.com/post/168756122885/global-action
