PLDT Home harnesses the power of the country’s fastest broadband internet provider by supporting Madiskarte Moms PH (MMPH).  MMPH is an online community of mompreneurs who want to build and grow their own online business while taking care of their family’s needs at home.  It has helped many of its members grow their side hustles into booming online home businesses that have allowed them to support and build dreams for their families.   The group became not only a go-to space for digital business tools, basic and necessary knowledge and skills training, and networking opportunities, but it also became an emotional and mental support system for its 153,000 community members. To celebrate the most outstanding mompreneurs in the community, MMPH launched the Gawad Madiskarte Awards in 2022. The winners were rewarded with more of the support that they need to expand their business further and their stories serve as an inspiration to every mompreneur who are working hard to reach their own dreams of success.
