SEASA and advocacy with Monica Catalan │Winging It │Episode 4

Winging It sits down with Monica Catalan, president of the Southeast Asian Student Alliance, to talk upcoming events, advocacy efforts and how EMU students can get involved.

Due to direct overseas donations being complex, SEASA has created a Cash App account dedicated to receiving funds for aid. For those interested in donating to the Philippines' earthquake relief, money can be sent to: '$SEASA4CebuPH'

For more information on proof of donations, as well as how currency translates, check out SEASA's Instagram page at seasaemu.
