She then noted how the Filipinos in the US should also be honored with the same award for their contributions not only to their family but also to the Philippines.

She ended the video with a short message to everyone, “Muli, maraming salamat po.”

The TOFA is an award given to outstanding Filipinos whose achievements are considered worthy to be matched or surpassed by others in the same field. It is awarded to Filipino individuals whose dedication to their chosen field has made significant contributions to the advancement of his or her vocation.

Awardees are chosen based on the strength of their character, and integrity, as well as the impact of their achievements in their field of work.
