A Legacy of Compassion Go's Golden Moment at PHC

A Legacy of Compassion Go's Golden Moment at PHC

As I sit down to write this blog, a fond memory from my childhood comes flooding back. My grandfather, a kind-hearted soul with a passion for helping others, would often take me on walks through the local hospital, introducing me to patients and sharing their stories. His unwavering dedication to serving others instilled in me a sense of chutzpah – that irrepressible drive to make a difference.

Fast forward to today, as I reflect on Sen. Bong Go's receipt of the Golden Legacy Award from the Philippine Heart Center (PHC). This milestone moment is not just a celebration of Go's commitment to improving healthcare in the country; it's also a testament to the power of compassion and dedication.

A Golden Legacy Celebrating 50 Years of Healthcare Excellence

On Sunday, the PHC marked its 50th anniversary with a grand celebration at the Manila Hotel. Amidst the festivities, Sen. Bong Go was honored with the Golden Legacy Award for his tireless efforts in promoting healthcare reform and ensuring that Filipinos receive the best possible care. Go's acceptance speech was a heartfelt tribute to the PHC's legacy of delivering vital cardiac care to the Filipino people.

A Commitment to Serving Others

In his speech, Go emphasized that his commitment to serving others will not waver, regardless of recognition. With or without an award, I will continue to serve our fellow Filipinos, especially our poor and needy compatriots. I will continue to serve to the best of my ability, he said. This sentiment resonates deeply with the spirit of social documentary filmmaking – the pursuit of telling stories that inspire change and promote empathy.
