35th WOMEN’S MONTH CELEBRATION.

Led by banner-bearers and an all-male marching band, ladies in different shades of purple braved the heat of the midday sun with their stand: “WE (Women Empowerment) for Gender Equality and Inclusivity.” Their march was from the program and awards venue, the PFVR gym; to Melvin Jones, Burnham Park. The program was well-attended with ladies of all ages, from different groups and advocacies, barangays, local offices, and national agencies. – JULIE G. FIANZA / Photos by Neil Clark Ongchangco
