How to Volunteer

You can be a volunteer by sharing your time and talent to GK USA. Several special events and fundraisers are being organized by the various GK teams in your area and your expertise in marketing, accounting, production design, graphic design, writing, IT, and special event management. Even as simple as participating in brainstorming for plans and activities, you can be a great help in the team!

If there is no GK Team in your area and you want to start up, you can organize a small group of advocates and enthusiasts (minimum of 5-10 individuals) and start your own GK Team!

To volunteer, please contact GK USA Community Relations through Howie@gk-usa.org.

Gawad Kalinga’s Continued Support to Typhoon Pablo-affected communities (Read More>>)

Gawad Kalinga’s Operation Walang Iwanan: Typhoon Pablo surpassed the initial target of 10,000 relief packs, reached out to those in need of medical assistance, and brought Christmas to 3,000 children and 2,000 adults. But the work is far from over, and MANY MORE STILL NEED OUR HELP.

The Power of Giving by Cody Wong

My recent trip to the Emelita Marquez Wong Gawad Kalinga Village on December 29th was one that opened me up to the power of giving. All the homes were painted and well-maintained, plants surrounded the outside of many of the homes, and sidewalks and a multipurpose center completed the village. Although I visited the village toward the end of its construction in 2007, I never envisioned that it would reach its current state of completion. I am proud of my parents and Gawad Kalinga for their ongoing efforts in sustaining this village. (Read More>>>)
