A significant show of support from the Catholic Church has bolstered the upcoming “Trillion Peso March” rally, with a total of 86 dioceses nationwide endorsing the anti-corruption and anti-political dynasty demonstration set for Sunday, November 30.
The protest, organized by the Trillion Peso March Movement, will converge at the historic Epifanio Delos Santos Avenue (EDSA) People Power Monument in Manila, marking a powerful continuation of anti-graft efforts amid ongoing probes into government infrastructure projects.
The mobilization includes dioceses and archdioceses spanning Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, highlighting a unified call for accountability across the country.
Caritas Philippines, the humanitarian, development, and advocacy arm of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP), formally expressed its support for the massive gathering.
“Isang napakalakas na panawagan para sa katotohanan, pananagutan, at tunay na transparency. Tuloy ang pagkakaisa. Tuloy ang laban,” Caritas Philippines announced on social media, translating to “A very strong call for truth, accountability, and genuine transparency. Unity continues. The fight continues.”
Organizers have clarified that the primary objective of the rally is not to call for resignations but to press for the prosecution and jailing of corrupt officials, whose alleged activities have cost the nation massive public funds—estimated to be in the trillions.
The November 30 event follows a previous anti-corruption rally held by the same movement earlier this year.
