To be held virtually for the third time since the pandemic hit in 2020 is PLDT-Smart Foundation’s annual “Gabay Guro.”
This year’s star-studded tribute for Filipino teachers goes by the theme “The Filipino Teacher: Our Pride, Our Purpose, Our Passion.”
It will stream live on Saturday, Oct. 15, via Gabay Guro’s Facebook page and Youtube Channel starting at 1 p.m.
Just like the first two events presented by the Metro Pacific Investments Corp. (MPIC), with PLDT Home and PLDT-Smart Foundation, “Gabay Guro 2022” is expected to reach out to an even larger audience of teachers across the country and abroad as it showcases a barrage of world-class talents that include “Gabay Guro’s” long-time assembly of celebrity advocates like the Megastar Sharon Cuneta, the Songbird Regine Velasquez-Alcasid, Concert King Martin Nievera, balladeer Basil Valdez, and Pop Diva Kuh Ledesma.
Joining them are: AC Bonifacio, Sheena Belarmino, Angela Ken, Jeremy Glinoga, Darren Espanto, Nicole Asensio, Aicelle Santos, Jed Madela, Jett Pangan, Alamat, Angela Ken, CLR, MC Einstein, Janine Tenoso, Jason Dy, Heaven Paralejo, Christian Bautista, Jolina, Sam, Tippy Dos Santos, Neo Rivera, Kayla Rivera, Mark Bautista, Klarisse de Guzman, Erik Santos, Jona, Elha Nympha, Lara Maigue, Fana, Janine Berdin, and The Company.
Musical director Louie Ocampo also returns to render his genius to the event.
The gathering will be hosted by Pops Fernandez, Sam Concepcion, Dominic Roque and Jolina Magdangal.
Teachers can partake of the once-every-year magical experience by downloading the Gabay Guro Super App.
By registering, they will also have a chance to win exciting prizes, including a Chery Tiggo Pro car and two 500,000 pesos cash.
And because Gabay Guro cares deeply for the teachers’ health and welfare, mWell.ph, the Philippines’ first fully integrated health app with robust telemedicine service, is giving away mWellness gift boxes which entitles teachers to free medical check-up, their very own oxymeter, thermal scanner and vouchers for vitamins to keep them strong and healthy.
Gabay Guro Chairperson Chaye Cabal-Revilla who is also the Chief Finance, Risk and Sustainability Officer of the MPIC said that with the support of MPIC Chairman Manny V. Pangilinan, “all of us working behind Gabay Guro over the last 15years –the core team of volunteers, artists and celebrity-advocates,our loyal sponsors — everyone remains united for the purpose of giving our teachers the honor that they deserve.The difficult times of the pandemic failed to stop us in the pursuit of this purpose. The seven pillars of Gabay Guro serve as our guide to encourageand uplift the teachers because we believe that changing the life of one teacher has a positive multiplier effect on her students.”
“Gabay Guro 2022” is supported by Chery Auto Philippines, Fitbit, Huawei, Devant, mWell.ph, Smart, Pascual Laboratories, PLDT Home, and 555 Tuna/Sardines, among many others.
