The Department of Education (DepEd) and Metrobank Foundation, Inc. (MBFI) officially launched the search for the 2025 Metrobank Foundation Outstanding Filipinos during a ceremony held on Friday in Bulwagan ng Karunungan, DepEd Central Office.

The event, which also marked the program’s 40th anniversary, was attended by officials from DepEd, the Commission on Higher Education (CHED), the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), the Philippine National Police (PNP), Philippine Savings Bank (PS Bank), and other government and private institutions.

ā€œI just want to emphasize that not only are our awardees outstanding, not only are they performing, not only are they men of integrity, men of achievement, they go above and beyond,ā€ Education Secretary Sonny Angara said in his solidarity message.

The ceremony included the signing of a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between DepEd and MBFI, reinforcing their partnership in recognizing the exceptional contributions of basic education teachers. Representatives from partner organizations, the Rotary Club of Makati Metro and the Rotary Club of New Manila East, also participated in the event.

In his opening remarks, MBFI President Aniceto M. SobrepeƱa underscored the significance of the program in honoring public servants.

ā€œAs we mark this historic four-decade milestone of recognizing exemplary public servants, let us recommit ourselves to celebrating excellence for 40 more years and beyond. Together, the Metrobank Foundation Outstanding Filipinos will continue to honor those who give their all to build brighter, stronger communities for the Filipinos,ā€ he said.

The program annually honors four (4) teachers, three (3) soldiers, and three (3) police officers whose dedication and service set a benchmark for others. With the theme ā€œBeyond Excellence,ā€ the initiative celebrates individuals whose work inspires greater impact for the nation.

Nominees must meet key criteria in values, service, and community impact. Teachers, soldiers, and police officers who have demonstrated exemplary public service and a positive influence on their communities are eligible for nomination.

Nominations will be accepted until January 17, 2025. For more details and access to nomination forms, visit the Metrobank Foundation Outstanding Filipinos Facebook page or the MBFI website at https://www.mbfoundation.org.ph/outstanding-filipinos.
