TRANSFORMATION. Architect's perspective of the renovated and expanded Good News Clinic and Hospital. The only hospital in Banaue, Ifugao.

This is a press release from the Good News Clinic and Hospital in Banaue, Ifugao.

As part of its 70th anniversary celebration, Good News Clinic and Hospital (GNCH), a non-profit mission hospital that has served in Banaue, Ifugao, is set to hold its fourth “Art for GoodNews’ Sake” fundraiser.

With the theme “Instrumento Tayo!” the exhibit will be happening from November 14 to December 6, 2026, at the GCF Ortigas Fellowship Hall in Pasig City.

It will feature pieces donated by over 70 Filipino artists and creatives, including Ed Uygongco, Rey Aurelio, Addie Cukingnan, Chino Yulo, Vincent Louie Tan, and Coeli Manese.

The annual art show seeks to raise over P5 million for GNCH’s Ipaphod Transformation Project, which includes the establishment of a new emergency room, triage extension, patient lift, and a ramp for the hospital.

GNCH was founded in 1956 by USAFFE medical corps veteran missionary Dr. James Irvine in Barrio Tam-an in Banaue. It endured throughout the years under the leadership of other missionary doctors, including Dr. Antonio Ligot, who served the clinic and hospital for over three decades.

Currently, the Philhealth Yakap-accredited hospital is led by Dr. Carolyn Abayao, a Banaue native once treated at GNCH following a tragic accident at age 13. She had served there as a nurse under Dr. Ligot’s tutelage prior to pursuing her general medicine degree.

“It is only by the grace of God, and His providential work through the selfless hands of missionary doctors and generous donors that GNCH still stands to serve the people of Banaue for 70 years and stay true to its mission of ‘Healing Bodies and Winning Souls to Christ,’” GNCH administrator Dan Andrew Cura said.
