Nadasig sa kasingkasing sa mga Cebuano

Dasig means “full of spirit” or “to inspire.” It's the strength that moves people to act with heart.

When the 6.9 earthquake struck Northern Cebu, something beautiful happened amid the chaos. I saw people who had nothing offering coffee to strangers stuck on the road. Tricycle drivers ferrying evacuees for free. Neighbors checking on neighbors. Strangers becoming family overnight.

I saw someone offer their car to deliver relief goods to the mountains. Another family sharing their last pot of lugaw with evacuees. In Facebook groups, hundreds of volunteers posted “Saan pwede mag-volunteer?” — and waited for a reply that sometimes never came.

But I also saw the frustration. Donations piling up in one barangay while the next sitio had nothing. Trust eroding as people wondered if their money actually reached victims. Everyone self-organizing, no one coordinating.

Filipinos don't lack heart. We lack coordination.

Dasig was built so that the next time disaster strikes, the spirit of bayanihan doesn't get lost in the chaos — it gets organized, amplified, and delivered to those who need it most.

Community response to disaster
“I saw people who had nothing to give offering coffee to strangers. That's the spirit we want to protect.”

The story repeats every typhoon season

“Para sa mga nasalanta”

A friend shares their GCash number. You send ₱500 without hesitation — that's who we are. But weeks later, you wonder: Did it reach anyone? Was it used for rice? Medicine? Gasoline? You never find out. And slowly, that generous instinct starts to hesitate.

“Saan pwede mag-volunteer?”

Facebook groups flood with the same question. But there's no central place to find out what's being organized, where help is needed, or who's already mobilizing nearby. Relief drives happen a street away and they never know. Good people ready to act — with no way to find each other.

The sitio that gets forgotten

A community in the mountains waits three weeks for relief that never comes. Meanwhile, a barangay on the highway receives donations from five different groups in one day. No one mapped the need. No one tracked the response. Everyone helped — but not everyone was helped.

Trust breaks down

Scam stories spread. Questions arise about government funds. Private donors get accused of misuse. The generous Filipino starts to wonder: “Can I trust anyone with my donation?” And slowly, the willingness to help fades — not because we stopped caring, but because we stopped trusting.

This isn't a lack of kindness. It's a lack of infrastructure.

Dasig is the coordination layer that connects hearts to hands to help — with transparency every step of the way.
