Pag-IBIG Fund holds today, February 14, its annual "I Do, I Do! Araw ng Pag-IBIG" mass wedding for the benefit of over 1,000 member-couples in 11 venues nationwide.

Pag-IBIG Fund celebrates Araw ng Pag-IBIG with 1,000 couples saying “I Do, I Do”
TILL DEATH, THEY SAY. Pag-IBIG Fund Araw Ng Pag IBIG: A mass wedding of 300 couples at the Tent City at the Manila Hotel on Valentine's Day. The mass wedding is presided by Manila City Mayor Francisco ‘Isko’ Domagoso. Present during the event is Pag-IBIG Fund Chief Executive Ocer Acmad Rizaldy Moti, part of the simultaneous mass weddings throughout the country. A total of 1000 couples tied the knot. Lino Santos

“This is how we celebrate Araw ng Pag-IBIG on Valentine’s Day.  For the past nine years, Pag-IBIG Fund has helped member-couples formalize their union and, at the same time, enjoy the benefits of Pag-IBIG Fund membership.  This is one of the many ways that we carry out President Rodrigo Roa Duterte’s directive of helping Filipino families, particularly those in the low-income sector, by providing them better access to social benefits,” said Secretary Eduardo D. del Rosario, Chairperson of the 11-member Pag-IBIG Fund Board of Trustees and newly-appointed secretary of the Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development (DHSUD).

In the National Capital Region, the wedding rites for this year's “I Do, I Do! Araw ng Pag-IBIG" will be conducted in Manila. Similar celebrations will also be held in Baguio, Isabela, Pampanga, Bulacan, Laguna, Bicol, Cebu, Negros Occidental, Cagayan de Oro and Davao. In light of the COVID-19 or coronavirus disease, the conduct of the mass wedding in these areas will strictly follow the recommendations of the Department of Health to ensure the health and safety of guests and participants.  Measures include the deployment of medical teams to help implement screening and reporting protocols.

“Pag-IBIG Fund shares the aspirations of our members in uplifting their lives and that of their families.  Our ‘I Do, I Do! Araw ng Pag-IBIG,’ event is part of our corporate social responsibility activities. We help members from the low-income sector who do not have the financial means to formalize their union and at the same time highlight to them the social benefits of Pag-IBIG Fund membership. This is our way of showing that Pag-IBIG Fund is not only a savings institution and a provider of home loans, but is also their partner in building happy families,” Pag-IBIG Fund Chief Executive Officer Acmad Rizaldy P. Moti said.

Since its start in 2012, Pag-IBIG Fund has helped wed over 21,000 member-couples through the event.
