Empowering solo parents through knowledge and opportunity! 💼✨
April 23, 2026, the Business Counsellors from Negosyo Center San Miguel and Negosyo Center Alimodian successfully conducted an Entrepreneurship Development Seminar together with a Financial Literacy session featuring Simple Record Keeping for the participants of Solo Parents Day. The activity took place at the Municipal Covered Gym in San Miguel, Iloilo, gathering almost 120 solo parent participants from the community.
The seminar aimed to provide valuable insights on starting and managing small businesses, as well as strengthening financial management practices among solo parents. Through discussions on basic entrepreneurship concepts, budgeting, saving, and proper record keeping, participants were equipped with practical tools and knowledge that they can apply in their daily lives and future livelihood ventures.
This initiative highlights the importance of empowering solo parents by enhancing their skills and confidence in managing finances and exploring income-generating opportunities. It also serves as a reminder of the vital role they play in their families and the community, and the continuous support they deserve.
The activity was hosted by the Municipal Social Welfare and Development Office (MSWDO) of San Miguel, whose unwavering commitment to uplifting the welfare of solo parents made this meaningful event possible.
