Celebrating our idols in real life, the Palawan Group of Companies, in partnership with JCI Senate Philippines, once again shines the spotlight on the people many Filipino families quietly rely on every day—our kasambahays.
For many moms, especially those balancing work, home, and everything in between, having a trusted kasambahay is more than just help—it’s having a partner in raising a family. They’re the ones who step in when we can’t, who care for our homes and children with dedication, often away from their own families.
Timed around Araw ng Kagitingan, the Kasambahay, Kasambuhay Awards 2026 reminds us that heroism isn’t always loud or visible. Sometimes, it’s found in everyday acts of service, sacrifice, and love inside our homes.
Now on its 11th year, the program continues to recognize kasambahays as tunay na “idol in real life”—people whose stories of resilience and care deserve to be heard and celebrated.
For moms reading this, it hits close to home. Ilang beses na ba tayong nakasandal sa kanila during busy days, deadlines, or even just to catch a breath? This initiative is a simple but meaningful way to say: “We see you. We appreciate you.”
How the Kasambahay Awards 2026 Works
The search for inspiring kasambahays officially runs from April 1 to August 3, 2026. Nominations can be done through the PalawanPay app, making it easier for families to share real stories of their trusted helpers.
From thousands of entries, 10 grand winners will be selected and awarded ₱100,000 each plus a TESDA scholarship—helping them build better opportunities for themselves and their families.
Additional recognitions include 20 special awardees who will receive ₱10,000 each, proving that every story matters.
Why Recognizing Kasambahays Matters
Many Filipino households depend on kasambahays, especially working moms who juggle careers and family life. Their contribution goes beyond chores—they help create a stable, nurturing environment for children and support the daily rhythm of family life.
Programs like this highlight an important truth: strong families are often built with the help of people who choose to care, serve, and stay committed despite personal sacrifices.
