GMA Network Chairman and CEO Atty. Felipe L. Gozon announced the appointment of former Supreme Court Chief Justice Reynato Puno as Vice Chairman and Independent Director of GMA Network's socio-civic arm, GMA Kapuso Foundation (GMAKF).
Puno was unanimously elected by the GMA Board, as confirmed by the members of GMAKF, during their joint meeting held last August 28 due to his exemplary accomplishments as a lawmaker and public servant.
“His proven track record in public service, not to mention his reputable image, makes him a fitting choice to become part of GMA Kapuso Foundation. His extensive experience in serving the Filipino people will definitely benefit the organization,” said Gozon.
As Vice Chairman and Independent Director of GMAKF, Puno will play a significant role in leading its projects that are categorized under its four main programs: health, education, disaster relief, and values formation.
“I am looking forward to working with the former chief justice in furthering the Foundation’s mission to improve the Filipino people’s quality of life,” GMAKF Executive Vice President and COO Mel Tiangco was quoted as saying. “The Foundation looks forward to having someone as dedicated and service-oriented as him on board,” she added.
Puno served as the 22nd Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the Philippines. He has received many local and international awards in law and public service. He finished his law degree at the University of the Philippines and earned his post-graduate degree in Comparative Laws at the Southern Methodist University in Texas. Puno also has a masters degree in Law from University of California and finished all academic requirements for the Doctor of Juridical Science degree at the University of Illinois. He has also written numerous legal articles that have been published in law journals. He is also the Chairman of the Administrative Council of the Puno United Methodist Church.
