To help Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) and their families achieve financial independence, the Department of Migrant Workers (DMW) recently kicked off the Bagong Pilipinas Serbisyo Caravan in Tarlac City, in collaboration with the country’s leading finance app GCash.
With the theme “Bagong Bayani Kaagapay sa Bagong Pilipinas,” the two-day event offered a wide range of services for OFWs and their families, including pre-employment and anti-illegal recruitment orientation seminars, welfare and legal assistance, and reintegration support, including comprehensive government and financial services to OFWs and their families. A financial literacy program was also conducted by GCash for overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) to help them maximize their earnings and teach them the value of saving.
“The Department of Migrant Workers continues to see the importance of partnership with LGUs and private institutions like GCash, to provide options for OFWs to manage and handle their finances well. Our migrant workers leave the country to provide better lives for their families but it shouldn’t end there. Our end game should be that they can finally come home to their loved ones and through our partnerships, we will help them achieve their financial goals faster,” says DMW Usec. Patricia Yvonne "PY" Caunan.
During the caravan, GCash presented its suite of services to OFWs including Filipinos bound for deployment and their families to help improve their lives and achieve their financial goals. These include secure money transfers, savings accounts, insurance, and lending and investment options which are all accessible through the GCash app.
“In line with the vision of GCash to give more Filipinos financial access across the world, we offer various services and innovations designed for Overseas Filipinos. We allow free Send Money from GCash Overseas to the GCash account of their loved ones in the Philippines instantly and to many, at multiple times. We have also partnered with international remittance centers with the most competitive exchange rates with minimal fees. This helps our hardworking OFWs save a lot as we provide them a more cost-efficient way to send money to their families back home,” says GCash International general manager Paul Albano.
