In one of the more recent posts on its official Instagram account, the Miss Universe Philippines organization uploaded a poster calling on Filipino fans and pageant aficionados to perform a bayanihan vote to push Ahtisa to be top 1 in all of the categories that are part of the pageant's online vote.

In the caption to the post, the organization included instructions on how to vote or Ahtisa on the Miss Universe app, as well as all the categories that Filipino fans and pageant aficionados can vote in.

While the preliminaries are happening tomorrow, the 2025 Miss Universe coronation night will happen on November 21, also in Bangkok, Thailand.

Just a couple of days ago, the organization called on Filipino fans and pageant aficionados to cast their votes for Ahtisa Manalo in the Miss Universe National Costume category. In the caption to the post, the organization emphasized that Ahtisa winning the honor this year would make it a historic three-peat for the country.

A couple of days before that call to action, the organization called on fans to vote for her in the Beyond the Crown category of the Miss Universe pageant, which highlights the delegates' advocacies.

Ahtisa's Beyond the Crown video has her speaking about her partner organization Alon Akademie, whose two programs Alon Hub and Alon on Wheels focus on youth empowerment and education.

The Miss Universe Philippines organization also called on fans to vote for Ahtisa in the Miss Congeniality category of the Miss Universe pageant. In the caption to the post, the organization called on its followers to help Ahtisa “shine even brighter on the Miss Universe stage.”

Ahtisa recently finished with the closed-door interview segment of the pageant, wearing a Jot Losa dress that sought to uplift the country's national flower, the sampaguita.
