About Us
Our Beginnings
Paalam launched in 2021 in the wake of the COVID19 pandemic. Death became a topic that is relevant to us all, and yet Filipinos are still hesitant to talk about it.
There are not a lot of resources available online that explore the things that come with death—such as costs, administrations, and of course, grief.
We want you to know that you are not alone as you go through loss.
Our Goals
Paalam envisions a Filipino culture consciously engaged with the discussion of death and ultimately embracing it as part of the human experience.
The articles on our website are meant to educate people about tasks that need to be accomplished when someone passes away. There are taxes, subscriptions, and paperwork, among other things.
It can be a lot to handle all these things while also processing the death. We want to be your partner as you accomplish them.
