Rotary Club of Manila Crown

Congratulations UCP Wilma Unana on your excellence award!

𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 | “Prevention is not just a health issue—it is a shared societal investment.”

This was the powerful reminder from Dr. Anthony Faraon, Chief of Party of The Challenge Initiative - The Philippines at the Zuellig Family Foundation (ZFF), during his keynote on “Beyond Universal Coverage: Sustainable Financing for Preventive Care” at the Asian Medical Students' Association - Service-Oriented Medical Advocates (AMSA-SOMA) 6th Public Health Forum.

Held last April 11, 2026 at the Artists Hall, Benedicto College, Mandaue Campus, the forum gathered medical students, healthcare professionals, and advocates to explore collaborative solutions to pressing public health challenges.

Alongside the keynote, ZFF also welcomed participants at its booth, where we introduced our broader programs in public health leadership, governance training, and advocacy.

By highlighting prevention and engaging with future medical leaders, ZFF reaffirmed its commitment to building resilient communities and nurturing service‑oriented advocates for equitable and sustainable healthcare.
