A Simple Life, A Million-Peso Blessing
Each morning before sunrise, Geresa Constantino puts on her red cap and apron at the small fast-food stall where she has worked for two years. Her partner, an electrician, heads to a nearby construction site while their five-year-old daughter stays with her in-laws. Life is simple, and every peso counts for this hardworking family. When Geresa decided to apply for a PLDT Home Fiber connection, she only wanted to make the most out of her earnings by ensuring her family stayed connected every day. Weeks after installation, her phone buzzed with a message that would change her life forever. She had just won ₱1M (1 million pesos). She laughingly shared, “May nag-text po na nanalo ako. Akala ko isang libo lang ’yon, one million pala! Blessing po talaga ito. Hirap po ng buhay namin kaya ang laking tulong nito. Pinag-iisipan namin magtayo ng maliit na grocery o piggery at baka pwede makasal na rin kami.” For Geresa and her family, the win is more than luck. It is a testament to faith, hard work, and the possibilities that come with staying connected.

A Brand New Journey On The Road Ahead
In Bacolod City, Andrea Sartorio, a medical intern, was busy adjusting to her hospital duties when she learned she had won a brand-new Toyota Fortuner through the OMG Promo. She had just applied for PLDT Home Fiber on the day she moved to Bacolod, following her landlady’s advice that PLDT Home was the most reliable in their area. Andrea shared, “Honestly, just having Wi-Fi that fast already felt like a win for me. Then I found out I won a Fortuner, I couldn’t stop smiling.” Andrea plans to give the vehicle to her parents in Iloilo as a family reward and as a new asset to support their poultry business. Her story shows how meaningful connections can open doors to new opportunities and shared blessings.
Winning Free Internet For Life
In Quezon Province, 52-year-old Mirasol Cura found her own version of winning big. A mother of two, she subscribed to PLDT Home Fiber simply to ensure stable internet for her children’s schooling. What she didn’t expect was to receive Free Broadband For Life. She said, “Hindi ko po talaga akalaing mananalo ako. Kinuha ko talaga ang PLDT Home para sa pag-aaral ng mga anak ko. Ngayon, hindi ko na iintindihin ang bayad buwan-buwan. Ang laking ginhawa po talaga. Parang nabigyan kami ng tulong para siguraduhin ang kinabukasan nila.” For Mirasol, the prize is more than convenience. It is a lifeline that secures her children’s education and her family’s future.
Aside from the grand prizes, ten winners took home Php100,000 in cash while another ten winners received free broadband for one (1) year.
