WorldRemit donated P500,000 to ABS-CBN Foundation International
For Kim Chiu, having a home of her own carries a special meaning. The actress remembers winning a house and lot when she joined “Pinoy Big Brother,” making her especially relatable to the Filipino dream of having a place to call home.
Kim brings this personal connection to her renewed partnership with WorldRemit as the digital money transfer service brings back “Bahay Mo, Panalo Mo,” a promotion in partnership with The Filipino Channel (TFC) that gives eligible overseas Filipino customers the chance to win monthly cash prizes and a brand-new house and lot in the Philippines.
“Nakaka-relate ako sa ‘Bahay Mo, Panalo Mo’ kasi noong nanalo ako sa ‘PBB,’ may pa-house and lot. Iba pa rin yung pakiramdam na may sarili kang bahay,” said Kim.
As a breadwinner, Kim also understands the sacrifices behind every remittance sent by Filipinos working abroad. For her, sending money home is more than a financial transaction—it is an expression of love, support, and responsibility toward family.
“More than the padala, it is more of a connection, love, support, and security. Kapag nagpadala ka ng pera, may kwento yun behind it pwede pang-tuition, pang-grocery, minsan pang-emergency,” she said.
For WorldRemit, supporting Filipino aspirations is part of its commitment to the community, recognizing the important role remittances play in helping overseas Filipinos stay connected with their loved ones and support their goals back home.
“We invest so much in the Filipino community because we know there is an immense world of difference we can make when we make remittance and sending money home easier,” said Leo Albea, Head of Philippine Market at WorldRemit.
“Owning a house is a dream of many Filipinos. It is such a fun experience to give this to OFWs,” he added.
As part of its continued support for Filipinos in the Philippines, WorldRemit also donated P500,000 to the ABS-CBN Foundation to help provide flood relief assistance.
Aside from the donation, new WorldRemit users can also support ABS-CBN Foundation International by using the promo code GIVEBACK on their first transfer. WorldRemit will donate $10 to ABS-CBN Foundation International for every eligible first transfer made using the code.
Launching this September, “Bahay Mo, Panalo Mo” will be open to eligible WorldRemit customers in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and select areas in Australia.
WorldRemit allows customers to send money to their loved ones in the Philippines through its fast, secure, and convenient digital money transfer service.
