NGO Spotlight on Kaya Natin

Today's NGO is Kaya Natin! Movement for Good Governance and Ethical Leadership.

This is the group started by the late Sec. Jesse Robredo, former governor Ed Panlilio, and former governor Grace Padaca, together with my husband and me, way back in 2008. KN has served as the support group for like-minded government officials. If you need someone to vent out to because your police chief refuses to arrest the top drug lord in your city, if you need ideas on how to streamline government services in your municipality, if you need support for your proposed bill on transparency, the KN members are all there to help each other out. We also do youth leadership trainings and trainings for public officials, depending on our partner organizations.

The KN Champions of Good Governance

We have over 40 local and national government officials as members, including the presumptive Vice President-elect Leni Robredo, widow of our founder. It's like Alcoholics Anonymous, only we're not alcoholics, and we're not anonymous.

We are addicted though, but to a good thing--good governance.

If you want to be a proactive citizen and be involved in all things governance and politics, by all means sign up as a KN volunteer here. We'd love to have you!
