Newly-crowned Mrs. Tourism Universe Hemilyn Escudero Tamayo and 2019 Mrs. Universe Philippines Charo Laude are also included in the long list of those recognized by the body, which also comes out with the “Model Mom Philippines,” “Outstanding Men and Women of the Year Philippines,” “Philippine Empowered Men and Women of the Year,” and “Philippines Outstanding Brand of the Year.”
The body also recognized “faces of success” among media staff members, the medical field, and other sectors.
“Success might seem unreachable. But the stories of these personalities prove that anyone, even ordinary Filipinos, can become successful if they make smart and wise decisions in life and work hard,” the organizer said.
The organizer is hopeful that the awarding of the 2021 Philippine Faces of Success will eventually take place at Teatrino at the Promenade in Greenhills, San Juan. No date for the ceremony has been announced as of the time of this writing.
