L-R: Hapinoy Co-Founder and President Mark Joquin Ruiz, Ka-panda WoW beneficiary Abegail Guzman, Ka-panda WoW beneficiary Rachel Silvano, and foodpanda Philippines Communications and Public Affairs Head Jerome Mangahas for the Ka-pandaBIZ: Women on Wheels Commencement Activity
As a working college student, Brenda Isederio manages her time between studies and being a delivery partner for delivery service provider, foodpanda logistics. Now in her third year of college, Brenda juggles her studies with supporting her family. Her mom is a streetsweeper, and her dad is a maintenance worker.
Receiving an invitation to join the Ka-pandaBIZ: Women on Wheels (WoW) program felt like an answered prayer. Brenda is one of six women from the Ka-panda delivery fleet who graduated from the Ka-pandaBIZ livelihood and training program. Launched during Women's Month, the initiative empowers women by providing tools and skills to start their own businesses.
