Consul Rowena Pangilinan-Daquipil represented Philippine Consul General to San Francisco Neil Frank Ferrer during the PhilDev Gala and Awards on 12 October 2024 at The Westin SFO to show support to the mission of PhilDev.
The event was a celebration of PhilDev’s achievements in uplifting education, innovation, and entrepreneurship, especially among the Filipino youth, and was also a recognition of the collective impact of the Fil-Am community in supporting PhilDev scholars and educators.
The Gala also honored exceptional individuals in the areas of education (Sheila Coronel), innovation (Ayesha Vera-Yu), entrepreneurship (Eros Resmini and Susie Quesada), and also awarded the inaugural Dado Banatao Legacy Award to Eric Toda.
