BDO recognized social partner at 2022 Migrant Workers Day Araw ng Pasasalamat



We all know the sacrifices of our OFWs. It takes courage and a big heart to leave the family and work overseas. The global crisis brought by the pandemic has made the situation more difficult. Most of our kababayans were not able to go home on vacation because of the lockdown. While some were not able to return to their respective jobs. 

The Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) and Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA) hosted the 2022 Migrant Workers Day Araw ng Pasasalamat at the SM Mall of Asia Music Hall last June 7 with the theme "Kabayan sa galing at sakripisyo mo, nakabangon ang Mundo" During the event, BDO Unibank was recognized as a social partner by the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) and Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA). The award was received by BDO SVP & Remittance Head Genie T. Gloria together with “Mr. BDO”, Senior Assistant Vice President Vicente “Teteng” Lopez.


BDO continues to provide digital products and services catering to  OFWs and their families back home that will help them bank with ease. Mr. BDO Teteng Lopez also conduct webinars to further educate our OFWs about financial literacy. Teteng emphasizes the importance of saving up and BDO makes it possible through the BDO Kabayan Savings. 


There has been many challenges in remittances due to the pandemic but BDO remains committed in ensuring that our OFWs can send money back home via BDO Remit. They have a strong network of remittance partners worldwide to give OFWs convenient way to bank.
