MANILA — Miss Universe Philippines Rabiya Mateo, who is also the pageant organization’s education ambassador, shared on Monday an interview with a student from Cebu whose story of perseverance she ide

ntifies with.

Quilestino’s mother had been mostly absent due to her work as a household helper, while her father is a fisherman. Quilestino said she had to juggle tending to her younger siblings and her studies. “I will overcome my situation. Poverty is not a hindrance to success. If you want to finish your studies, you will do everything to succeed. You will succeed if you work hard,” she said.

During her pageant bid, Mateo was open about poverty, as her mother raised her and her siblings as a single parent.“Ganiyan din ang naranasan ko,” Mateo said. “Nangutang din kami dati kasi kailangan namin ng pagkain, kailangan namin ng pambili ng projects. Naranasan ko ‘yung nararanasan mo: ‘yung naglalakad ako papunta sa school, pauwi, kasi walang pera.”
