ELIZE MARIANO

At a young age, Elize has been enjoying the spotlight as a performer, and this is one of the reasons why she started looking for ways to engage with her followers on her social media platforms.

For Elize, dreamers shouldn’t hesitate to pursue their passion and just give it a try.

“Never doubt yourself when it comes to pursuing something your heart and soul desires. You can always start small and build on that, little by little,” she said.

Elize also shared that creators must invest in Tripod as it can help produce stable and higher-quality videos.

MARY GRACE KHU

Chose to pursue a career as an events host, MG brings joy to her audience. She started hosting professionally a decade ago, but her passion for being onstage dates back to her childhood.

She shares that it’s important to hold on to personal values when pursuing one’s passion in such a fast-paced industry.

“Don’t forget to stay grounded. Stay humble and build a healthy working relationship with others. Learn from whatever mistakes that brought you to where you are. And most importantly, have a grateful heart,” MG shared.

For MG, those who want to become hosts should get a Boya Lapel Mic, which ensures quality audio output.

PATTY MARABUT

Found herself starting a business due to her passion for food, Patty is now the co-owner and VP of marketing at The Lost Bread. She is also the owner of Royal Harness and The Kind.

Patty revealed that it’s hard to entice customers, which is why she likes to encourage aspiring entrepreneurs to think things through before they start their business journey.

“It’s still important to run numbers and assess the risks before starting. Not every passion can be turned into a career, but with proper planning and the right people behind you, it’s possible,” Patty shared.

Patty also claimed that aspiring entrepreneurs should know the importance of taking good care of employees.

“The number one driver in pursuing our passion individually and as a team is the people behind us. Initially, we started with simple plastic chairs for our employees, but when Christmas 2019 came, we decided to gift them all with comfortable Swivel Chairs from Shopee,” she added.

ANGELO CASIMIRO

Although Angelo is still studying, he has already built a thriving career in innovation.

Angelo has won several robotics competitions and even became the first Filipino awardee at the Google Science Fair competition. Now, he also shares DIY electronics projects and tutorials on social media.

TECNO Mobile has completed its first CSR campaign in the Philippines, allowing the brand to give back to the community by donating to local heroes.

In case you missed it, the brand has successfully launched several new smartphones in the country, and to express its gratitude, TECNO Mobile gave smartphones and cash to the local heroes from the government, civic groups, and the Church.

The recipients of donations from TECNO Mobile were Ina ng Lupang Pangako Parish, Project Malasakit, and the City of Manila through the Office of Mayor Isko Moreno.

BRINGING HOPE AS THEY CELEBRATE AND HONOR OUR EVERYDAY HEROES

TECNO Mobile held separate handover ceremonies for each beneficiary. The first of which happened at the Ina ng Lupang Pangako Parish Area on July 13.

The parish is located in the middle of Brgy. Payatas, which is known for its proximity to the Metro’s open area for solid waste disposal. Leaders and volunteers of the Church provide educational and livelihood opportunities for the urban poor community living in their area, funded by donations from different entities.

TECNO Mobile recognized this effort.

Graced by TECNO Mobile Limited’s Brand Marketing Director for the Philippines, Jason Liang, the company donated Php100,000 to the parish. There were 10 smartphones to be shared with hardworking parish volunteers, as well.

Meanwhile, the donations were received by Rev. Fr. Peter Hequillan, CM.

The handover ceremony was attended by Liang, Project Malaskit founder Kara David, and two of their scholars, Lilian Ambrocio and Mauwe Liwanag.

Last but not the least, the final handover ceremony took place on August 6 at the Office of Manila City Mayor, Isko Moreno.

Mayor Isko is known for his service to the local community, aided by his team of volunteer workers who power up their community hotlines, respond to reports, handle coordination for projects, such as the recent vaccine rollout, and work at the local public school as teachers

The City of Manila received 50 smartphones and Php200,000 from TECNO Mobile.
The donation was handed over by the TECNO Mobile Limited executives for the Philippines, headed by Lindsay Guan, CEO, and received by Mayor Isko.
