Setting a New Standard in Future-Proofing the Next Generation of Financial Advisors

Allianz Asia Pacific proudly announces the inaugural graduation of 200 agents and agency leaders from its Pinnacle Excellence Program (PEP), a first-of-its-kind initiative co-designed with INSEAD, one of the world’s leading business schools. This milestone underlines Allianz’s dedication to equipping its agency force with advanced skills and insights to navigate the evolving financial landscape, while also supporting the broader Pinnacle 2030 strategy focused on sustainable growth and enhanced client engagement.

Transformative Outcomes and Strong Agency Performance 

Graduates of this first cohort demonstrated over 40% growth in productivity, and nearly 40% qualified for the Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT)—a global standard of excellence in financial advisory. These accomplishments contributed to Allianz’s robust 9M 2024 agency performance, marked by a 19% increase in New Business Value (NBV) and 8% growth in Annualised Premiums (ANP). Notably, ANP per active agent climbed by 11%, reflecting a strategic emphasis on developing a high-performing, client-focused agency network.

A Program Created "For Agents, By Agents"

PEP was developed through extensive collaboration with leading industry practitioners, including Allianz’s top-performing agents and leaders across Asia Pacific. Their on-the-ground insights shaped a specialized learning journey that addresses the key drivers of long-term success in today’s competitive market. Unlike conventional insurance training programs, PEP integrates both academic rigor and practical application through:

Blended Learning Delivery: Combining theoretical case studies, action-based projects, and role-playing exercises.

Focused Skill Modules: Spanning Customer Psychology, Leadership, Communication, and Entrepreneurial Strategies.

Real-World Application: Equipping participants to translate classroom learnings into tangible results, from client engagement to team leadership.

“Our vision at Allianz is to build a world-class agency force that delivers exceptional service and trusted financial solutions,” said Anusha Thavarajah, Regional Chief Executive Officer, Allianz Asia Pacific. “The Pinnacle Excellence Program is a key pillar of our Pinnacle 2030 strategy, designed to elevate our agency force, enhance client engagement, and drive long-term growth. Through this program, we are not just transferring knowledge—we’re shaping the future of financial advisory by equipping our agents with the skills, tools, and mindset needed for sustainable success.”Art Wapanio, one of the Filipino LifeChangers in the program, expressed his gratitude for being part of the experience: “I am deeply thankful to Allianz for giving me the opportunity to participate in the PEP program. Learning from a world-renowned business school broadened my perspective on both business and life. The opportunity to collaborate with passionate colleagues from different regional offices allowed us to exchange valuable ideas relevant to our work. I am eager to apply all the knowledge gained to ensure I can effectively help my clients achieve their financial goals and move closer to realizing their life aspirations.”

Elevating Industry Standards

In an environment where customer expectations continue to evolve, PEP graduates emerge as highly skilled advisors and leaders committed to safeguarding their clients’ financial well-being. By emphasizing lifelong learning, advanced financial planning expertise, and leadership development, Allianz aims to raise the bar for quality advisory services in the region.

“At INSEAD, we believe in developing responsible leaders who can navigate complexity and drive meaningful impact,” said Sameer Hasija, Dean of Executive Education and Dean of the Asia Campus at INSEAD. “Our collaboration with Allianz in the Pinnacle Excellence Program exemplifies this mission—combining world-class business education with real-world application to empower agents with the knowledge, skills, and strategic mindset needed to lead and create positive change in today’s financial landscape.” 

Looking Ahead: Growth and Future Enhancements

The 200 graduates represent a diverse mix of new agents, aspiring leaders, and experienced professionals—each benefiting from PEP’s structured, hands-on approach. Building on this success, Allianz will expand the program in the coming years, allowing more agents to:

• Access innovative learning methods tailored to an ever-changing market.
• Develop leadership capabilities that drive team performance and client trust.
• Contribute to sustainable growth in Asia’s dynamic financial services industry.

Allianz remains committed to creating industry-leading development pathways that prepare advisors for tomorrow’s challenges, ensuring clients receive best-in-class financial guidance well into the future.

Autism-Inclusive Jobs: SM Supermalls and ASP Collaboration

Strengthening our commitment to a more inclusive community, SM Supermalls and ASP sign the Memorandum of Understanding for Inclusive Hiring of talents on the spectrum.

SM Supermalls has partnered with the Autism Society Philippines (ASP) to create work opportunities for individuals on the autism spectrum and help them succeed in the retail industry. This collaboration reflects SM’s enduring commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion across its operations.

Book Nook, a flagship community learning hub under SM Cares, will soon welcome individuals on the spectrum as Book Nook concierges, bringing SM’s inclusive vision to life in a space that champions learning, connection, and belonging.

“Book Nook was always meant to be a space where everyone feels they belong,” Ms. Shereen T. Sy shared. “Through this initiative, we bring that vision into sharper focus—creating not just a library, but a living story of inclusion, empowerment, and opportunity.”

“The Autism Society Philippines is excited about this collaboration,” said Ms. Mona Magno Veluz, Country Manager of ASP Autism Works. “We need more companies carving a space for Filipinos with disabilities in their businesses, allowing them to contribute and grow.”

The partnership is part of SM Cares' broader advocacy for inclusive employment, which aims to create work environments where people with disabilities are welcomed and celebrated for their unique strengths.

SM Supermalls and ASP Leaders are dedicated to sharing valuable insights, inspiring us to continually enhance and transform our customer experiences. 

Ms. Shereen Sy shares a thoughtful message that encourages proper understanding of each member of the community to be able to serve them better.

“At SM, inclusion is more than a policy—it’s our purpose,” said Mr. Steven T. Tan, President of SM Supermalls. “This partnership with ASP reaffirms our commitment to being a ‘Mall for All’—a place where everyone can succeed and feel they belong.”

SM Supermalls continues to redefine inclusive, compassionate public spaces—not just in its malls but in communities throughout the Philippines. Its strategic partnership with the ASP ensures that they are guided in best practices for recruiting, developing, and retaining talents on the autism spectrum.

LBC Express: Connecting Filipinos, Bridging the Gap in Commerce and Payments

The rise of the internet and enhanced connectivity usage has significantly transformed daily life, making us more interconnected and raising our expectations for immediacy. In this evolving landscape, LBC Express Incorporated has solidified its position as the Philippines’ leader in retail and corporate courier and cargo services, money remittance, and logistics solutions for the global Filipino. Its established reputation is reinforced by its extensive national presence and history of service and innovation.

Founded in the 1950s as a modest brokerage and air cargo agent, LBC Express has evolved into a market leader, introducing Filipinos to express 24-hour door-to-door delivery, cargo shipping, and money remittance. Over the years, the company has continuously adapted to the fast-paced demands of the digital era, expanding into e-commerce, business, and payment solutions. Today, LBC Express not only specializes in logistics and remittance services but also plays a pivotal role in facilitating business and e-commerce transactions, bridging the gap between businesses and consumers.

As LBC Express continues its trajectory of innovation, the importance of reliable connectivity in the logistics and remittance sectors becomes more evident. Senior Vice President and Head of IT, Alexander Francis “Alfie” Deato, emphasizes, “In today’s fast-paced environment, having a reliable connectivity provider is crucial for business operations. Whether it's tracking deliveries, processing payments, or sending remittances, connectivity is key to meeting customer expectations.” He further highlights the growth of LBC’s services, noting, “When I first joined LBC Express 11 years ago, real-time updates were not standard practice. Today, they are a necessity. We must provide updates in real-time—or as close to real-time as possible—to ensure complete customer satisfaction.” 

Delivering Beyond Boundaries The team at LBC Express Incorporated is committed to providing seamless and cost-effective solutions, ensuring that Filipinos, regardless of location, have dependable access to essential services with exceptional efficiency.

LBC Express’ strategic partnership with Philippines’ leading fiber broadband and technology provider, Converge ICT Solutions Inc., has been integral in meeting the connectivity demands required to ensure seamless operations.

Powered by Converge’s pure fiber connectivity, LBC guarantees expedited services, keeping customers informed with real-time updates at every stage of the process, ensuring customers can access their funds and parcels whenever and wherever needed.

Mr. Deato adds, “Converge being a full fiber connectivity allowed us to expand our many branches. We've been pushing Converge to expand outside Luzon which has helped us expand our fiber connectivity all the way to our remote branches in Visayas and Mindanao which gave us the ability to offer more online services to our customers. This expansion has enabled us to expand our services and become less reliant on offline solutions.”

With over 1,500 branches and 200 hubs across the Philippines, LBC Express is able to provide seamless, cost-effective services, even in the most remote regions. This connectivity boosts not only logistics operations but also LBC’s e-commerce and payment solutions, giving businesses the tools needed to succeed in a competitive market.

Connecting People, Delivering Excellence Alexander Francis "Alfie" Deato, Senior VP and Head of IT at LBC Express, emphasizes the importance of reliable connectivity in supporting operations. Converge has been crucial in ensuring seamless service delivery, helping LBC maintain its commitment to service excellence.

LBC Express’ focus on inclusivity is evident in its efforts to reach underserved regions. Mr. Deato explains, “We do not restrict our operations to major cities where profitability is guaranteed. Like Converge, we are committed to serving unserved and underserved areas, ensuring that even places like Batanes, where connectivity is sparse, are not left behind.” This dedication to inclusivity aligns with LBC's mission to link and bridge Filipinos, ensuring access to services despite geographic barriers.

From its humble beginnings as a brokerage and air cargo agent, LBC Express has remained a leader in the logistics and remittance industry. Through its collaboration with Converge ICT Solutions Inc., LBC has enhanced its operations and digital offerings, ensuring its services reach all Filipinos, no matter how remote. This commitment to efficient and cost-effective solutions strengthens customer trust and solidifies LBC's position as the most trusted courier for the global Filipino.

Effortless Content Creation: Atasha Muhlach's OPPO Reno13 5G Experience

Known for her vibrant personality and unique perspective, multi hyphenate singer, dancer, and TV host Atasha Muhlach has quickly gained popularity on social media, especially on Instagram (@atashamuchlach_) where she shares moments of her life, fashion inspiration, travel adventures, and creative pursuits.

Now, with the OPPO Reno13 5G in hand, Atasha is stepping up her content game, offering her followers an even more immersive experience.

"The OPPO Reno13 5G has completely transformed how I approach content creation,” she says. “The camera quality is incredible, and the 5G connectivity makes everything seamless, allowing me to upload, share, and engage with my audience in real-time. Whether it's capturing moments on the go or editing my photos and videos with ease, this phone is my new go-to tool for creating content."

1. Step Up Your Photography Game and Maximize AI 

Whether she’s documenting the streets of a new city, capturing a candid laugh with friends, or filming a breathtaking sunset Atasha is able to turn everyday moments into share-worthy masterpieces with the OPPO Reno13 5G. 

Photo taken by Atasha Muhlach using the OPPO Reno13 5G

One of her favorite features? The incredible 50MP Ultra-Clear Camera System that lets her snap crisp, vibrant photos without all the heavy gear. “I’ve seen content creators with huge teams and lots of equipment just to capture photos. But with this phone, it’s so easy—pocket-friendly and with no bulky cameras!”

For Atasha, content creation isn’t just about clicking a button—it’s about capturing a feeling, a moment, a story. And the OPPO Reno13 5G makes that easier than ever.

Photo taken by Atasha Muhlach using the OPPO Reno13 5G

One of her go-to features is the AI Livephoto. This is a game-changer for capturing the essence of a moment. Instead of just freezing time in a single frame, AI Livephoto records 1.5 seconds before and after a shot, transforming still images into dynamic, moving snippets of life. “It’s like having a tiny movie for every photo I take,” Atasha explains. “I can see the waves crashing, the wind playing with my hair, or that priceless laugh I just had with my family or friends —it’s so much more than just a single static photo.”

With the AI Livephoto, Atasha is able to relive the energy and emotion behind each moment. “It makes my gallery feel alive. Every time I scroll through my photos, it’s like I’m back in that exact moment, experiencing it all over again,” she adds.

2. Be Creative with AI Editing Tools

For Atasha, efficiency is key. The OPPO Reno13 5G’s AI-powered editing tools make it easy to enhance photos and videos on the fly.  “Editing is such a huge part of content creation, and the OPPO Reno13 5G makes it so much easier,” Atasha shares. “I don’t even need third-party apps most of the time because everything I need is already built into the phone.”

Photobombers and crowded places sometimes disrupt the beauty of attraction or the photo you’re taking. But Atasha doesn’t worry about that anymore with the OPPO Reno13 5G’s AI Eraser 2.0 that removes any unwanted element with a simple tap. If she needs to get rid of glare from a shop window or water reflection from her snaps, the AI Reflection Remover has her covered making each photo clear without a hint of any distractions. 

And when it comes to capturing the best angles, AI Portrait Mode ensures a professional, depth-enhanced shot—perfect for both solo and group selfies. “It makes every photo look like it was taken on a high-end camera,” Atasha gushes.

3. Choose the AI That Works for You

It’s always a struggle trying to capture the perfect selfie, with most of the time ending with a blurry shot or an awkward angle. With AI Unblur and AI Best Face, Atasha never has to second-guess her selfies. “I love how I can snap a quick selfie on the go, and AI Best Face makes sure I look my best every single time. It’s like having a built-in glam team!” she laughs. 

No more retaking dozens of photos to get the right one. Every selfie can be crisp and clear in just one snap. 

The AI Clarity Enhancer also ensures that Atasha’s night shots shine just as bright as it is at daytime. With the AI Clarity Enhance of the OPPO Reno13 5G, every detail is enhanced without losing the ambiance. “Taking photos at night or with poor lighting used to be tricky, but now, I don’t have to worry about grainy, dark photos. The AI does all the work, and I get high-quality shots every time.” Atasha says. 

With the OPPO Reno13 5G, Atasha knows that no moment—day or night—will ever be missed. “It’s all about capturing real moments, and this phone makes it so easy. I can focus on enjoying the experience while my camera ensures I have the perfect shot to remember it by.”

Your Turn to Create!

For Atasha, content creation is all about having fun, letting your creativity flow, and telling your story. And with the OPPO Reno13 5G, she believes anyone can jump in and bring their ideas to life. “If you’re thinking of starting your content creation journey, just go for it! And make sure you have the right phone to back you up. The OPPO Reno13 5G has everything you need—awesome camera quality, powerful AI tools, and amazing battery life. It’s my creative partner, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

Beachfront Bliss: Live, Work, and Thrive at Seafront Villas

Living by the beach offers an unmatched sense of peace and wellness, transforming each day into a chance to rejuvenate both body and mind. At Seafront Villas by Aboitiz Land, homeowners are granted the opportunity to craft a sanctuary tailored to both relaxation and productivity. With thoughtful design and amenities, you can create an ideal space to truly “seas the day” while making the most of beachside living.

The Benefits of Living by the Beach for Your Health

Coastal living is known to have a range of health benefits that go beyond just the picturesque surroundings. Studies show that living near “blue spaces”—like oceans and lakes—enhances mental and physical health, from reducing stress to improving mood and creativity. Here’s a closer look at why living near the beach can have such profound effects on well-being:

Reduced Stress. The beach environment promotes a calmer state of mind. The sound of waves can induce a meditative state, reducing anxiety and promoting relaxation. Daily exposure to nature’s rhythms allows the body and mind to unwind naturally, providing a sanctuary from everyday pressures.

Better Sleep. The calming effects of the beach are also conducive to sleep. The fresh air, enriched with negative ions, improves oxygen absorption, which can promote deeper, more restful sleep. Regular exposure to natural environments like the beach supports better sleep quality, allowing you to wake up feeling refreshed.

Enhanced Creativity and Mood. Proximity to water has been shown to boost creativity and improve mood. For those looking to harness inspiration, the beach provides a peaceful yet stimulating environment that allows the mind to wander, fostering creative thinking. Whether you’re writing, painting, or working on projects, being close to the ocean provides that spark of creativity often missed in urban settings.

The “blue mind” effect describes the unique impact of water on well-being, as it helps increase focus and clarity while reducing the mental clutter that often comes with city life. With this science-backed understanding of blue spaces, living in a beach condo at Seafront Villas opens up daily opportunities for both rejuvenation and productivity.

How to Make the Most of Your Day in a Beach Condo

Turning a beach condo into a sanctuary requires thoughtful design choices that enhance relaxation while supporting productivity. Here are some ideas to help you create a balanced living space at Seafront Villas:

Declutter for Clarity. A clean, organized space is essential for mental clarity. Minimize clutter by incorporating smart storage solutions like built-in cabinets or shelving units. A decluttered environment reduces distractions and promotes a sense of calm, making your condo feel more open and inviting. Reducing visual clutter is also known to reduce mental fatigue, giving you more energy for each day.

Maximize Natural Light. Embrace the sunlight streaming in from the coast by using light-colored curtains or blinds that allow natural light to fill the space. Studies show that natural light can improve focus and mood, making it an ideal feature for a sanctuary-like condo. Floor-to-ceiling windows or glass doors leading to the balcony can flood your home with light and capture stunning ocean views.

Incorporate Coastal Elements. Integrate beach-inspired decor to create a cohesive and calming aesthetic. Use light tones, natural textures, and touches of blue to echo the surrounding sea. Adding elements like driftwood, seashells, or woven textures brings the beach indoors, enhancing the calming atmosphere. Decor choices that reflect the ocean and natural surroundings can help amplify the sanctuary feel and make your condo a more inviting space.

Create Dedicated Zones. Designate specific areas for different activities to make the most of your beach condo. Consider creating a cozy reading nook, a work corner for when productivity calls, and a relaxation area where you can unwind. This approach helps to maintain balance, ensuring that your condo remains both a restful retreat and a functional living space. Zoning helps you mentally transition between activities, giving each moment and activity its dedicated space.

Each of these design choices not only elevates your living experience but also enhances the sense of tranquility and purpose, making every day in your beach condo feel like a fresh start.

Converge Empowers Next-Gen Filipino Tech Leaders at Hackfest 2025

Converge team members and managers from the Network group and the IT Operations group served as judges of the Hackfest and earnestly evaluated the solutions created by the students at the end of the 11-day event. 

Leading Philippine fiber broadband and technology provider Converge ICT Solutions Inc. is leading the way in shaping the minds of tech-oriented youth as it recently concluded participation in the 11-day Google Developer Student Clubs Loyola’s Hackfest 2025 Horizon, a  hackathon competition that provides a unique platform for students to apply their technical skills and develop innovative digital solutions for real-world challenges.

No less than two ranking executives of Converge - and startup entrepreneurs in their own right - spoke to over a hundred participants of the Hackathon, attended by the GDSC members: student tech society and circles of Ateneo de Manila University, University of the Philippines, De La Salle University, Adamson University, Colegio de San Juan de Letran, among others. 

Converge Chief Executive Advisor Eugene Yeo and Converge Chief Network Transformation Officer (CNTO) Paulo Martin ‘Santi’ Santos delivered messages underlining the path of digital transformation the Philippines is on, and students’ role in this future as the next generation of tech leaders and innovators. 

Converge CNTO regales the young developers with his experience in transforming the digital infrastructure of Unionbank and also selling his start-up to a bigger telco. 

“We fully support the building of this community of young thinkers and developers. Most of the apps and systems  we use today are not localized or Philippine-based. But it's not because we don't have the talent - we do. We just need to harness it. You, the youth, are the future and this is a dream that Converge wants to keep pushing and investing in,” said CNTO Santos. 

Converge CEA Eugene Yeo shared his own experience as a start-up builder in the 90s, which he eventually sold to Yahoo! 

“There’s a huge opportunity in the Philippines to transform the way Filipinos live their digital lives. Converge built an amazing digital infrastructure but so what? If there are no solutions or no devices to leverage on that? That’s what we want to see at Converge, we want to go to the next level,” added Yeo during the opening ceremony of the Hackfest. 

Mentoring and advising the student teams involved in the Hackfest were key team members of the Network Operations Group, namely Research & Development Assistant Manager Charlene Patawaran, IT Operations’ Head of Technology Solutions & Engineering Management Steven Maverick Paradeza. 

The winning solution to the Hackfest was a waste management system innovation created by PUP students. 

The duo crafted the main problem statement that the teams targeted to solve using their coding and programming know-how. The winning teams were : 

1st Place : Team Infinity Stones with ScrappyHappy (Polytechnic University of the Philippines)

2nd Place : Team Hacklanons with Smiles (Ateneo de Manila University)

3rd Place : Team Divathon with Kalinga (Ateneo de Manila University)

The teams came up with innovative and scalable solutions that address UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and moreover, empower communities that face structural challenges in waste management, resource redistribution, and civic engagement. 

Affordable Teletherapy in the Philippines: MindNation's Stress Relief Offer

In recognition of Stress Awareness Month this April, mental health and well-being organization MindNation is offering up to 50% OFF on select well-being programs to empower individuals to take action on their mental health and emotional healing.

Stress is a natural part of life and plays an important role in survival and growth. But when it becomes chronic, it takes a toll on both mental and physical well-being. Unchecked stress can lead to:

• Increased risk of anxiety and depression
• Sleep disturbances and chronic fatigue
• Reduced productivity and workplace burnout

According to 2024 MindNation WellBeing Survey results, 72% of employees report feeling stressed at work often or more than half the time. While 49% say they can cope well, many remain unsure about their ability to manage stress. 

“Stress Less, Save More” offers two limited time discounted offers: 

• Trauma Processing Bundle – Now ₱5,400 for 5 1-hour sessions with a licensed MindNation psychologist (Trauma expert) from ₱9,000 (40% OFF)
• Get Things Done Program – Now ₱1,200 for 3 1-hour sessions with a trained Motivation Coach from ₱2,400 (50% OFF)

This initiative aims to raise awareness of the real and lasting impacts of stress, while also providing affordable pathways to healing and personal growth for individuals across the Philippines.

“At MindNation, we believe mental health support should be accessible, proactive, and rooted in empathy,” said Cat Triviño, Co-Founder and Chief Product and Data Officer of MindNation. “Stress Awareness Month is the perfect opportunity to encourage people to finally prioritize their well-being and make it easier to do so without financial burden.”

Mental Health, Now Giftable

The discounted bundles may also be gifted to loved ones — a thoughtful alternative to the usual tokens of care. With e-coupons and no limit to the number of bundles that can be purchased, individuals can now support a friend, sibling, or colleague who may be quietly struggling.

This initiative is part of MindNation’s broader mission to normalize healing, promote mental health equity, and help communities thrive by taking proactive steps toward better well-being.

The “Stress Less, Save More” promo runs until April 30, 2025 and is open to individuals aged 18 and above. All sessions are virtual and can be booked by emailing book@mindnation.com.

Grab Philippines Launches Green Programme: 1,000 Mangroves Planted in La Union

Grab Philippines Director for Strategy Greg Camacho [1st from right] and Grab’s Head of Group Sustainability Iris Chang [2nd from right] spearheaded the planting of the initial batch of mangrove trees in Dulao, La Union, together with volunteer Grab users, driver-partners, and employees

Grab Philippines has planted the first 1,000 of 80,000 pledged mangrove trees in Dulao, La Union, marking an early milestone in its newly launched Green Programme. Done in celebration of Earth Day 2025, the initiative underscores the superapp’s broader push to embed environmental sustainability into the country’s ride-hailing and on-demand delivery industries.

The Green Programme, which was launched in the Philippines in February 2025, empowers users to play an active role in environmental stewardship through tech.  By enabling the Green Program toggle on the Grab App, users get to contribute PHP 2 for every GrabCar ride and PHP 1 for every GrabFood or GrabMart delivery transaction. 

GrabForGood Forest in Dulao, La Union

One of the flagship initiatives to emerge from the program is the GrabForGood Forest in Dulao, La Union — a planned five-hectare mangrove enrichment site set to nurture thousands of mangrove seedlings. The initiative is a collaboration between Grab, the Dulao Fishpond and Fishpen Producer’s Cooperative, the Philippine-based sustainability NGO Fostering Education and Environment for Development (FEED), and the environmental tech platform EcoMatcher. 

La Union's coastal village of Dulao is among the communities in the country that grapple with escalating water and food security threats driven by climate change, notably rising sea levels, and intensifying typhoons. Mangrove enrichment has become a pivotal strategy to fortify natural defenses. This initiative is a cornerstone of the "Ridge to Reef" (R2R) strategy, championed by FEED and Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University (DMMMSU), alongside various private, public, academic, NGO, and community-led efforts in La Union. This collective endeavor fosters an enabling environment for inclusive, integrated, multi-stakeholder collaboration aimed at sustainable development. Mangrove forests are crucial habitats for marine biodiversity and enhance the livelihoods of Dulao’s fishing community.

The Dulao Fishpond and Fishpen Producer's Cooperative is at the forefront of sustainability efforts in their community, emphasizing the critical role of environmental action and conservation in supporting their livelihood and daily lives.

The project kicked off with the community mangrove-planting event led by volunteer Grab users, driver-partners, employees, representatives from partner organizations, and the local community — a grassroots push to anchor long-term resilience. FEED and the Dulao Fishpond and Fishpen Cooperative took an active role in facilitating the orientation, providing a comprehensive introduction on proper mangrove planting techniques, and explaining the positive impact of this initiative on the community. Delailah Lacadue, Head of Dulao Fishpond and Fishpen Producer's Cooperative, notes, “We wish to express our gratitude to Grab, FEED, DMMMSU, the local government of Aringay, EcoMatcher, and to all stakeholders for this mangrove enrichment project. This will surely help us in terms of environmental protection and livelihood as well. Kami po ay kasama ninyo sa pangangalaga ng Kalikasan para sa mga susunod pang henerasyon. We, the local community, commit to being your active partner for sustainability.”

“This is just the beginning — a pivotal first step in our long-term commitment to environmental sustainability,” said Greg Camacho, Director for Strategy at Grab Philippines. “The Green Programme is grounded in a simple yet powerful idea: when eco-friendly choices are made easy, inclusive, and accessible, they can inspire real positive impact for communities like Dulao. The planting of this first wave of mangroves, made possible by initial contributions via the Green Programme, proves that climate action doesn’t have to be distant or difficult—it can be seamlessly integrated into the daily lives of millions.”

The partnership with EcoMatcher enables tree tracking, ensuring transparency in where contributions are directed. “For sustainability-minded consumers, transparency is key,” said Bas Fransen, CEO of EcoMatcher. “Partnering with Grab Philippines through the Green Programme allows us to bring our advocacy for transparency-driven sustainability closer to Filipino consumers in a meaningful way.” 

With growing participation among users, the leading superapp is geared to scale the environmental impact of the Green Programme and turn individual contributions into lasting, collective change in more areas across the country.
