In line with its advocacy to promote nation-building through financial technology, GCash, the country’s no. 1 finance super app, paid tribute to the distinguished awardees of the recent Metrobank Foundation Outstanding Filipinos. The awardees received GCash credits as tokens of appreciation for their exceptional service to the public, unwavering passion, and impact on the community.
A lunch organized by the Metrobank Foundation was recently held at the GT Tower International on Ayala Avenue, Makati City to honor the awardees and was attended by presidents, directors and department heads of the Metrobank Foundation and other Metrobank subsidiaries and affiliates.
GCash president and chief executive officer Martha Sazon was also part of the esteemed final board of judges, which was chaired by Sen. Francis Joseph G. Escudero and co-chaired by the Supreme Court of the Philippines associate justice Henri Jean Paul B. Inting.
“We strive every day to serve more Filipinos and empower them through accessible financial services,. I believe that GCash, the Metrobank Foundation, and our awardees share a common goal, which is to improve the lives of our fellow Filipinos every day” said GCash president and chief executive officer Martha Sazon.
“You are role models for all of us, in a country that is hungry for true service. We celebrate you today as outstanding Filipinos, whose contributions have uplifted other Filipinos’ lives. You have all gone beyond performing your duties to helping build our nation in your own ways. We are honored and humbled by your commitment and your exemplary efforts as dedicated public servants. We are excited to see how you extend your advocacy and continue to serve the nation with your future service,” said GCash chief strategy officer Rowie Zamora, who attended the ceremony on behalf of GCash, to congratulate and present the tokens to the awardees.
GCash is proud to stand alongside the Metrobank Foundation in recognizing and congratulating the Metrobank Foundation Outstanding Filipinos of 2023.
