     In this month of November, we Filipinos usually celebrates Values Month celebration.  This celebration is an effective measure to create moral awakening and national consciousness on unique, positive, and genuine values held important by the Filipino people in their daily lives.

     This celebration was anchored on four pillars – makaDios (pro-God), makatao (pro-people), makabayan (pro-country), and makakalikasan (pro-nature), these values mirror the country’s rich tradition and cultural heritage, Filipino values are instilled early in life. Values formation starts in the family (such as kindness), in spiritual life (piety), relationship with others (generosity), in the workplace (resourcefulness), and in the community (respect for the law).

     The family is at the forefront of instilling values among young Filipinos in the home. Children learn to say “po” and “opo” to older people and to kiss their hands as a sign of respect.
