183 COUPLES SAY ‘I Dos' ON HEART'S DAY
True to its name, the home development mutual fund popularly known as Pag-IBIG Fund, sponsored a civil mass for its members last Feb. 14, 2017 at the SMX Convention Center.
Dubbed as “I Do, I Do, Araw ng Pagibig”, the 183 couple participants were beaming with pride as they were solemnized by Honorable Judge Roland S. Tolentino. It was the 6th year that the event was staged.
It aimed to help couples, especially those who were living in for years, to finally legalize their union through civil marriage rites and at the same time, promote financial literacy and appreciation of the concept of savings among newlyweds. The only pre-requisite to be able to join the Kasalang Bayan was to register as member of the Pag-ibig Fund.
The mass wedding did not end after the exchanged of I Dos. It paved the way for newlyweds to start a financially solid future through Pag-IBIG Fund membership.
Pag-IBIG Fund Davao, represented by Visayas-Mindanao Group Vice-President for Home Lending Operations, Fermin A. Sta Teresa Jr. and Southern Mindanao Area Head, Elizabeth V. Tinagan stood as witness. To add to the festive atmosphere, exciting raffle prizes including sofa beds, washing machine and Flat TV were given away to lucky newlyweds.
