Giving Back to Nature

The Gear Up Team has been receiving a lot of blessings for the past years and such is our gratitude that we want to share our blessings. Apart from our community services last December 2010, we decided that this time we give back to the environment.

A partnership with Toyota, Outdoorsmans' Hub, RISK, Circle of Friends, the local government of Guadalupe, DENR, and several other mountaineering clubs made the Tree Planting and River Clean-Up last September 18, 2011 possible. This was done throughout the Kahugan Trail to Mt. Babag. The activity ended with a free time to swim at the cool waters of Napo Falls.

Gear Up believes that taking care of the environment is important and that we must all do what we can to ensure that it is protected.

"Magtanim ay di biro," so the saying goes.
