Diverse though the first batch of “WES Youth Achievers,” they share, however, at least two things: All are Valenzuelanos. All are either thirty or below.
The award, which ceremonies were held on August 9 at the Valenzuela City Astrodome, was given by the Office of Representative WES Gatchalian of the Alay Buhay Partylist, who initiated the recognition of the local young talents.
The 27 awardees in the inaugural year are youth in the city who have reaped national and international recognition in the fields of education, entertainment, leadership, sports, visual arts, and volunteerism.
Cong. WES said the awardees were selected from more than 200 youth endorsed by individuals, public and private schools, and socio-civic organizations in Valenzuela City.
The lawmaker, a Valenzuela native and one of the youngest lawmakers in the 16th Congress, said he started the award to inspire the youth to put their talents in service of their communities.
“You have a lot of inspiration to glean from the [awardees’] life stories,” Cong. WES said, addressing the Alay Buhay scholars and local government officials who attended the ceremony.
The recognition day was graced by 2011 Ms. Universe 3rd Runner-Up Ms. Shamcey Supsup-Lee, guest of honor; Mr. Gerald Santos, guest singer-performer; and Mr. Percival Denolo, mud artist.
In the same event, Alay Buhay Party List launched the WES Youth Movement, a socio-civic organization that advocates youth advancement.
