Bilang Pilipina is an initiative that aims to empower Filipina women by providing them with financial literacy and money management skills. Founded by Jennelaine Dingalan, who witnessed her mother's sacrifices as an overseas Filipino worker, the program seeks to create a future where women no longer have to choose between financial security and being with their loved ones.

Jennelaine Dingalan, a 28-year-old Filipina with a vision for change, understands this deeply. Growing up, she witnessed her mother, an OFW in Saudi Arabia, make immense sacrifices to provide for their family.

In 2023, Dingalan poured her knowledge and passion into Bilang Pilipina—an initiative that brings to focus the very foundation of economic empowerment – financial literacy.Recognizing the importance of long-term financial security, Dingalan incorporates money management skills into the program. Workshops teach women how to save effectively and invest for their future, empowering them to build wealth and avoid financial pitfalls.

The next stop will be in her hometown in Rizal, where the city mayor vowed to support initiatives that empower women, Dingalan said. Her expansive background as a communicator way back her college years at the Far Eastern University convinced her to join Go Negosyo, a non-profit group focused on entrepreneurship development.

After five years, she moved on to the United Nations Women before she scaled up to become a financial advisor and manager at SunLife.
