He emphasized the guiding principles of Quality, Expansion, and Sustainability in advancing the Girl Scouting movement and reaffirmed the organization's commitment to inclusivity, declaring, “No girl should be turned away because of economic reasons.”

The event also recognized the dedication of school leaders through spot awards for early registrants and participants who proudly wore their GSP uniforms. Selected schools with the highest number of registered Girl Scouts during School Year 2025–2026 were awarded metal detectors as incentives in recognition of their outstanding support for the movement. As a token of appreciation, all participants received umbrellas, symbolizing the GSP's gratitude for their unwavering commitment and continued partnership.
