Message from Anna 
Dear Friends,
February is the month of love. No doubt, many of you will be giving and receiving flowers, cards, chocolates or maybe just a heartfelt "Happy Valentines" from significant others, families, and friends. But in the midst of the sincere exchanges, I hope that we don't forget another kind of love that is now thankfully spreading among many a Filipino's heart - love for country. I just recently came from the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland where Human Nature was invited to share our experiences in starting and scaling up a world-class social enterprise. My heart swelled with hope and pride as global leaders expressed admiration for how the Philippines has been able to recover from being "the sick man of Asia" to become one of the region's fastest rising stars. President Aquino also represented our country very well in Davos by showing clarity of vision and a keen focus on addressing corruption and fostering inclusive growth. And this all started only a few years ago when buying local products, volunteering and publicly expressing love for the Philippines became fashionable. See what love can do in just a few short years! The Philippines has a lot to share with the world with a thriving social enterprise community. We just recently concluded a very successful Humanity Fair wherein we showcased some of the promising young social enterprises that are quickly following Human Nature's path of profit and purpose. We are very thankful for all our dealers and customers who shared this day with us. May you continue to support enterprises that do more to ensure that the Philippines continues to grow without leaving anyone behind. Have a love-filled month of February! With resolute hope,  Anna Meloto-Wilk President Gandang Kalikasan Inc.
