The Quest for LOVE soon in G Diaries
G Diaries gets even more meaningful with the launch of The Quest for LOVE, a nationwide search that aims to help communities launch their own sustainable businesses. This will soon air as a special segment in the program in July.
Host Gina Lopez and partners in the private and government sectors, led by Sen. Loren Legarda, Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Sec. Mark Villar and Department of Science and Technology (DOST) Sec. Fortunato dela Peña, announced the project that promotes widespread social and environmental development last March 8 in Rockwell Club, Makati.
Through The Quest, the Investments in Loving Organizations for Village Economies (ILOVE) Foundation established by Gina, and its partners will provide financial and technical support to eight deserving organizations in transforming their communities into sites for sustainable development through agro-forestry, fisheries or ecotourism.
The search begins with 16 organizations that will be chosen from online entries from all over the Philippines based on their track record, leaders and the potential impact of the proposed intervention on the partner community.
Also present in the launch of The Quest for LOVE were Department of Tourism (DOT) Asec. Reynaldo Lacao Ching, Department of National Defense (DND) Usec. Cesar Yano, Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) Usec. Malou Turalde, Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Asec. Amina Fajardo and TESDA director Sonia Lipio.
G Diaries airs every second Sunday of the month before ASAP on ABS-CBN and ABS-CBN HD.
