𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧’𝐬 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬.

From little girls with big dreams to women shaping the world with those same dreams—every story deserves to be heard.

Behind every woman is a journey of hope, courage, growth, and resilience. There are quiet struggles, powerful victories, and moments that shape who she becomes. These stories remind us that every girl carries the potential to grow, lead, inspire, and change the world.

The AUF Guidance and Counseling Center encourages everyone to create spaces where every girl and woman feels safe, valued, heard, and supported. When we listen to women’s stories, we honor their strength. When we support their voices, we empower their future.

This Women’s Month, we celebrate the dreams, strength, growth, and mental well-being of every girl and every woman. Because every voice matters, every journey matters, and every woman’s story matters. 🌸💜👸🏻

Students from Angeles University Foundation Integrated School (AUF-IS) proudly represented their institution in the Gawad Anak OFW 2026, showcasing excellence, resilience, and the inspiring stories of children of Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs).

The provincial competition was held on March 6, 2026 at the AUF Sports and Cultural Center, gathering 38 participants from Pampanga.

Among the participants, Safronny Angel Margarette Biding was hailed as the overall champion in the Senior High School category, advancing as a national finalist who will represent Pampanga in the national competition on April 10, 2026.

The said event will be held the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines (CBCP), Intramuros, Manila.

Biding was coached by Mr. Francis Jasper Hontanosas.

Also representing AUF-IS in the search were Nathalie Faith Coquilla from the Senior High School division and Qarah Branda Markaye Perez from the Grade School division.

Perez placed Rank 3 and secured a Wildcard slot for the Luzon level of the competition.

The Gawad Anak OFW is part of the Archdiocesan Search for Outstanding Sons and Daughters of Overseas Filipino Workers Student Achievers Awards (TOSDOSA) organized by the CBCP – Episcopal Commission for the Pastoral Care of Migrants and Itinerant People (CBCP-ECMI).

𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿, 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀? Before you rush into 2026 goals, let’s take time for ourselves and slow down for a moment.

This is a gentle reminder that planning 2026 doesn’t mean pressuring yourself to suddenly “have it all together.” It starts with slowing down, being honest with yourself, and choosing to move forward with intention. Keep in mind that growth isn’t about perfection; it’s about showing up, reflecting, and trying again.

To everyone reading this: you are not behind, you are learning. You don’t need to do everything at once; you just need to take the next right step. Be patient with yourself, trust the process, and remember that progress looks different for everyone. Here’s to a 2026 where you choose yourself, your growth, and your well-being. Good luck, and you’ve got this 🍀🤍

🌱To help you in planning your year with more intention and purpose, here’s an honest guide🌱
