Dear Valued Community Partner,

We, Team Temptation Saturday, are a group of friends responding to a growing need of the gay
community in the Metro - that is to “host and mount a party that will go beyond everyone’s
expectations”. “Temptation Saturday” originated as an idea, an idea of people getting together,
boys getting together, and going to a certain place, to have really great parties and enjoy
ourselves. Here, “everyone is welcome and celebrated, regardless of whether you’re gay,
bisexual, trans, discreet gays, or whatever you want to be. Temptation Saturday” intends to be a
LGBT dance event; a party to respond to the diversity of the community and culture, gathered
together in one place to enjoy the night as we dance for hours and hours of good music with
friends and new-found friends while enjoying our drinks.

This is an “Aqua-holic” Gay Party meaning a pool and drinking party. We launched back in
December 2021, had our second event last March 2022 and our third event was recently held
last October 8, 2022. #PartyWithAMessage - One goal of our team is to raise visibility on certain
issues that affect the community. Given the state of the SOGIE bill in the country and the unjust
discrimination the gay community continues to face today, it has never been more important to
take a stand, discuss, talk and resist the prejudice. The event hosts multiple efforts that support
everything from education on specific issues to celebration. Our 4th edition of Temptation
Saturday will happen on February 25, 2023, from 7 PM onwards at Pansol, Laguna. The
event will be attended by 150-200+++ attendees. Our ingress time is anytime from 4 pm to
6 pm on Feb. 25, 2023.

In recent reports, there was a 149-percent increase in the average monthly calls for urgent help
received by the National Center for Mental Health. In 2021, the Philippine Statistics Authority
reported that deaths caused by suicide rose by 57.3 percent from 2020. The LGBTQ+
Community has a higher prevalence of mental health issues than heterosexuals. These
numbers prove that the Philippines is still lagging behind in terms of providing quality mental
health resources and services to individuals battling mental health challenges. #LiveKindly -
To further raise awareness on Mental Health and, as we celebrate 'INTERNATIONAL BOOST
SELF ESTEEM MONTH' this February. Our theme aims to help us believe in and appreciate
ourselves more, despite whatever we may be facing. It is important to nurture ourselves by
empowering other individuals to be a conduit of change through the spirit of action fueled by
kindness. Kindness has been proven to improve well-being and happiness. With kindness in
everyone's heart, we can prevent many problems like mental health issues, and enjoy good
overall health and a state of well-being.
