Founder’s Message

My name is Elizabeth-Grace, and I am a high school student in Massachusetts with a passion for literature, language, history, and world cultures. My love for these subjects was inspired by the stories I heard from my grandparents, who emigrated from India and the Philippines to North America.

As I learned more about my family history in recent years, I realized that my passion for history and culture could also become a vehicle for helping others. This was the origin of the documentary Do Justly, Love Mercy, and Walk Humbly, which seeks to share my grandmother’s story and raise money in her honor to support the Filipino and Filipino-American nursing community.

Since the documentary that inspired it all, we have expanded our efforts and partnered with wonderful organizations such as the Philippine Nurses Association of American, with whom we have launched an oral history project called SPARKJustly, now in Season 2. We are always continuing our efforts to raise awareness and support for the Filipino-American nursing community. If you’d like to help, please be in touch to learn what we’ve got going on now!”
