The Autism Society Philippines (ASP) is a national, non-profit organization dedicated to the well-being of persons on the autism spectrum disorder. We envision a society where Filipinos on the spectrum become the best of their potentials -- self-reliant, independent, productive, socially-accepted citizens of an Autism-OK Philippines.

Trees are essential gift from Almighty God to the people of Earth. They provide many benefits to everyone such as shield against typhoon, heat from the sun, shelter for animals, food, medicines, clothing, many more. As one of the major beneficiaries it is just right that we must take good care of them.
