Scholars get future boost via foundation

BingoPlus Foundation continues its mission of empowering young leaders through the P.L.U.S. (Pioneering Leadership and Uplifting Service) Factor, a sustaining engagement with its scholars under the FutureSmart Program.

Following the success of sessions on Growth Mindset and The Power of Habits in 2024, the social development arm of DigiPlus Interactive hosted the latest session on 22 February with a focus on Personal Branding.

The session taught scholars how to build confidence, enhance credibility, and stand out in a competitive landscape.

Yulo spreads inspiration

The hybrid event is designed for the Foundation’s 60 FutureSmart scholars nationwide. Adding inspiration to the session, Philippines’ only two-time Olympic gold medalist Carlos Yulo made a virtual appearance, sharing motivational insights on staying focused on one’s goals.

“I hope your workshop with BingoPlus Foundation will serve as one of your tools in achieving the best version of yourselves. While branding and personal image are important, always remember that staying true and maintaining your authentic self are the real keys to success,” Yulo said. “Don’t ever lose who you are and always look back to your old self to appreciate your wins today while striving harder to get to where you want to be in the future,” he added.

To bring personal branding to life, scholars attending in person showcased their OOTD (Outfit of the Day) — expressing their unique styles and personalities. Steffi Fetalvero, recognized for the best OOTD, took home ArenaPlus merchandise signed by Yulo.
