Once upon a time, in the bustling streets of the Bay Area there lived a remarkable woman named Dr. Gwen Agustin-Nodora, affectionately known as Peaches to her friends and admirers. Peaches was not just an ordinary soul; she was a beacon of light, radiating warmth, compassion, and an unwavering dedication to community, education and activism.

Peaches dedicated her life to making a difference in the world, wearing multiple hats as a school psychologist and a passionate advocate for mental health awareness. Her journey began as one of the first Pinays to graduate with a doctorate from SF State, a testament to her intellect and determination. But her achievements were not solely for personal accolades; they were a testament to her commitment to breaking barriers and paving the way for others.

Throughout her career, Peaches worked tirelessly to promote inclusivity and diversity in education and mental health services, ensuring that every individual, regardless of their background or abilities, had access to quality support and resources. As a school psychologist with her PPS credential, she was a guiding light for students facing mental health challenges, providing them with the tools and assistance they needed to thrive academically and emotionally.

But Peaches' legacy extended far beyond the classroom. She was also a passionate activist, using her creativity to inspire others and showcase the richness of Filipino culture and heritage. Her actions were a reflection of her soul, infused with the vibrancy and resilience of her people.

Sadly, Peaches' journey on this earth came to an end far too soon, leaving behind a void that could never be filled. But her spirit lived on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her, igniting a flame of hope and determination to continue her work.

And so, we gather together, united in our mission to honor Peaches' memory and carry forward her legacy of empowerment. By fundraising for the scholarship fund established in her name, we are ensuring that her passion for education and mental health advocacy lives on, providing opportunities for aspiring students to pursue their dreams and receive the support they need to thrive academically and emotionally.

As we embark on this journey together, let us remember the words of Dr. Gwen Agustin-Nodora herself: "No real success is done alone and doing it others makes it more fun!"

Together, let us continue to write the story of Peaches' legacy, one filled with hope, inspiration, and the transformative power of education.
