BingoPlus Foundation’s PLUS Factor Program Empowers Scholars, Expands More Slots 

BingoPlus Foundation continues its mission of empowering young leaders through the P.L.U.S. (Pioneering Leadership and Uplifting Service) Factor, a sustaining engagement with its scholars under the FutureSmart Program. 

BingoPlus Foundation concludes the Personal Branding session of the PLUS Factor, a leadership development program equipping scholars with mindsets, tools and competencies to prepare them for the workforce. This year, the Foundation opens at least ten (10) more scholarship slots in partnership with STI Foundation and SM Foundation.

Following the success of sessions on Growth Mindset and The Power of Habits in 2024, the social development arm of DigiPlus Interactive – home to beloved brands such as BingoPlus and ArenaPlus – hosted the latest session on February 22 with a focus on Personal Branding. The session taught scholars how to build confidence, enhance credibility, and stand out in a competitive landscape.

The hybrid event is designed for the Foundation’s 60 FutureSmart scholars nationwide. Adding inspiration to the session, Philippines’ only two-time Olympic gold medalist Carlos Yulo made a virtual appearance, sharing motivational insights on staying focused on one’s goals. 

2-time Olympic gold medalist Carlos Yulo gives an inspirational message to FutureSmart scholars and sends ArenaPlus signed merchandise to winners of the Personal Branding session’s OOTD Challenge. 

“I hope your workshop with BingoPlus Foundation will serve as one of your tools in achieving the best version of yourselves. While branding and personal image are important, always remember that staying true and maintaining your authentic self are the real keys to success,” Yulo said. “Don’t ever lose who you are and always look back to your old self to appreciate your wins today while striving harder to get to where you want to be in the future,” he added.

To bring personal branding to life, scholars attending in person showcased their OOTD (Outfit of the Day)—expressing their unique styles and personalities. Steffi Fetalvero, recognized for the best OOTD, took home ArenaPlus merchandise signed by Yulo.

Building a Strong Personal Brand for Future Success 

As students prepare to enter the professional world, personal branding plays a crucial role in shaping opportunities and career growth. Through discussions and hands-on activities, participants learned how to craft compelling narratives and confidently present themselves as authentic leaders, making lasting first impressions and sustaining a memorable impact in digital spaces and professional settings.

The P.L.U.S. Factor Program follows the Foundation’s scholars in different stages of college life, equipping them with foundational mindsets, communication skills, productivity tools and leadership competencies before they enter the workforce.

BingoPlus Foundation the workforce. This year, the Foundation opens at least ten (10) more scholarship slots in partnership with STI Foundation and SM Foundation.

The program will be extended to at least ten (10) new FutureSmart scholars for the upcoming academic year. Applications are currently being accepted through BingoPlus Foundation’s partners, SM Foundation and STI Foundation, with successful students enrolled in any of STI’s network of colleges nationwide.
