With a dedication to kindness that transcends the boundaries of the campus, Iris endeavors to carve a niche as a secure haven for all. The vision held by Iris reaches far beyond the immediate horizon, with the goal of transforming educational institutions in Bataan into premier safe spaces for the LGBTQIA+ community. Amidst this transformative odyssey, Iris seeks to cultivate a culture of inclusivity, one that reveres and honors the diverse tapestry of gender identities.
