Photographer and filmmaker Angelo Mendoza shares how finding your passion becomes a powerful tool for self-reflection and self-love. 

As part of a month-long celebration of Mental Health Awareness Month this May, PLDT and Smart empower the youth across the country to champion mental health and wellness through art with its campaign, "The Time Capsule Project”. With support from Canva Philippines, youth participants are encouraged to use art as a form of mental healthcare.

The local government unit (LGU) of General Santos (GenSan) City, through its Sangguniang Kabataan (SK), has recently launched the localized version of Better Today PH, PLDT and Smart’s collaborative platform for wellness, safe spaces, and changemaking in the digital world. The launch of @BetterTodayGenSan is part of PLDT and Smart’s month-long efforts for Safer Internet Day 2022.

Inspiring hope in the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, PLDT and Smart, through its collaborative platform Better Today, recently culminated its month-long mental health series with a record-breaking over 121,000 viewers.

PLDT and Smart, through its Better Today initiative, reinforce its commitment to champion mental health awareness nationwide. Recognizing the vital role that mental health plays in a person’s well-being, Better Today, a collaborative platform for changemaking in the digital space, has partnered with local government units and youth groups. 

PLDT and Smart have just launched Time Capsule Project, a virtual art festival on mental health and wellness under its Better Today program.

When physical art fairs, exhibitions and workshops are indefinitely put on hold, how do artists in Mindanao adapt in the new normal? Technology becomes their ally.

We culminated a month-long virtual storytelling series on mental wellness with stories of hope, survival and changemaking.  

For its final episode on October 30, PLDT and Smart’s Better Today Conversations will feature social media sensation and TV host Macoy Dubs and youth leaders Tasha and Bella Tanjutco of Kids for Kids PH.
