Pinay Ikaw Na (PIN), a leading organization supporting the empowerment of Filipino women, celebrated International Women’s Day alongside its 10th founding anniversary on 21 March 2025.

The event, held at the Downtown Rotana in Manama, was a momentous occasion that also saw the swearing-in of the organization’s new set of officers, marking a significant milestone in its decade-long journey.

The PIN Ghabga which was attended by more than 200 visitors was a reminder on the collective power of Filipino women, who persevere to overcome obstacles and contribute meaningfully to the community.

Warmest greetings

Philippine Ambassador to Bahrain, Her Excellency Anne Jalandoni-On Luis, graced the celebration and extended her warmest greetings to the organization.

In her address, Ambassador Louis expressed her appreciation to the officers and members of PIN for their collaboration with the embassy in organizing a skills training seminar for Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) which demonstrates a commitment to their welfare.

Her message highlighted the importance of such initiatives in uplifting migrant workers lives and reinforcing their contributions to the Philippines.

One of the evening’s highlights was the oath-taking ceremony, which formally initiated the new officers of Pinay Ikaw Na.
