(PascualLab), a top-of-mind partner for health products and manufacturing services known for its unwavering passion for health and life, has partnered with World Vision in bringing hope to the most vulnerable by empowering them to choose through the non-profit organization’s new child sponsorship campaign, Chosen™.

Lapu-lapu was a Datu of Mactan in the Visayas and was regarded as the 1st Filipino hero because of his resistance to imperial Spanish colonization.
The country’s quincentennial celebrations mark the 500th anniversary of Lapu-lapu’s victory against the fleet of Ferdinand Magellan during the Battle of Mactan, the 500th anniversary of Christianity in the Philippines, and the 500th anniversary of the Philippines’ part in the first circumnavigation of the world.
In a special video message on Liter of Light’s official Facebook page, AirAsia Philippines CEO Ricky Isla said, “We at AirAsia stand together with our brothers and sisters in Cebu, in commemorating Lapu-lapu and his warriors’ ideals, sacrifices and struggles, and hold them as a source of inspiration for modern day Filipinos.
Social mobilisers play an important role in the fight against preventable diseases. They are trained communicators working hand-in-hand with barangay health workers (BHWs), local officials, and community leaders to ensure every child is vaccinated. Like BHWs, they act as a second line of defense against vaccine refusals and hesitancy, going to the most isolated and hard-to-reach areas, often walking long distances across difficult terrain, or crossing rough seas.
Social Mobiliser Rodel Battaler
Rodel Battaler, 40 years old, is a social mobiliser for UNICEF partner Relief International. He has the same drive and dedication as his fellow vaccine champions, yet something sets him apart—he has polio. Wearing crutches, his colleagues were initially concerned whether he would be able to handle the tiring and intensive fieldwork that his job requires. Bataller works tirelessly, inspiring and encouraging colleagues to be patient and persevering.
Among the many milestones it is celebrating is a refreshed brand story chronicling the company’s journey from a kick-start-up to a premier multi-awarded regional boutique communications agency serving enterprises and organizations in the Philippines and across the Southeast Asian region, continued recognition for its communications and marketing campaigns, and new client partners.
