Thank you, HelloMoney by AUB, for a day filled with fun, exciting prizes and meaningful connections. It was great learning about the latest from HelloMoney—from scanning to pay abroad with Alipay+ in over 60 countries, to investing with HelloInvest and the convenience of the MySSS Card.
Here's to stronger partnerships and many more championship moments ahead!
Keep on saying Hello!👋
THE WORK CONTINUES 🚧🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
The story of queer liberation in the Philippines has always been a story of bayanihan.
From the lesbian and queer women activists who joined the International Women’s Day mobilization in 1992 to the organizers, advocates, artists, and everyday community members who followed, every step forward has been made possible by people choosing to build together.
For #MetrosceneMagPride2026, we honor the groundbreaking community of lesbians, queer women, and trans men whose contributions have long sustained the movement, even when their stories were pushed to its margins.
34 years after, the work remains unfinished—not because the movement has failed, and not because nothing has changed, but because liberation was never meant to be a destination. It has always been a process: one that each generation inherits, reshapes, and carries forward.
The work continues. And in the spirit of bayanihan, we keep building. That responsibility belongs to all of us.
