MANILA, Philippines — In February, the distinguished award ceremony for the Department of Education's stakeholders and sponsors was held at the GSIS Theater in Roxas Boulevard, Pasay City.

The event saw attendance of leading global brands and market leaders, together with Education Secretary and Vice President Sara Duterte who spearheaded the program. She was joined by DepEd Undersecretary Atty. Michael Poa and GSIS General Manager Jose Arnulfo Veloso.

The celebration highlighted the shared values and commitment of DepEd and SMS Philippines, a healthcare marketing agency, in supporting the government's aim to establish a robust Basic Education System. This commitment creates an environment where both students and teachers can thrive together.

Having been recognized and awarded in the said event, SMS Philippines takes pride in its commitment in actively supporting programs such as the Brigada Eskwela Program. This exemplifies the transformative influence of collective action.

Through the mobilization of volunteers to prepare classrooms for the upcoming academic year, this initiative stands as a beacon of how collaboration can instigate meaningful change.

SMS Philippines’ recognition for its effective partnership extends beyond this, being integral in other DepEd national projects such as the Palarong Pambansa, Teacher’s Day, and the WINS Washing in Schools program.

Alongside esteemed brand allies we underscore our dedication to fostering educational excellence. United in this cause, we tirelessly work to ensure that our joint endeavors pave the way for a more promising future for all.

“We at SMS Philippines express our gratitude to our client partners for the trust in implementing the health and educational activities awarded to us today.  I am proud to be part of making a difference, one Filipino child at a time,” Lia Chua-Rivera, SMS Philippines country manager, said.

This collaboration is a beacon of empowerment and progress, leaving a legacy that not only signifies new beginnings but also reinforces SMS Philippines’ ongoing commitment to improving lives. As it navigates this transformative journey, the focus on impactful community engagement and the mission to disseminate compelling healthcare information remains paramount.
