OFW Partylist President Marissa del Mar used to shoot abroad a lot as she interviewed our modern day heroes, our OFW’s. With that experience of being away from her family all the time, she walked in the shoes of our OFW’s and that is where her passion comes from. In her interviews and non-televised encounters with our OFW’s, she has heard and seen all their hardships. This resulted in her pushing
her television programs dedicated to our OFW’s for almost 20 years to help spread awareness and assist our countrymen in need. She established the Buhay OFW Foundation and Anti-Trafficking OFW Movement to spearhead all her heart's desires for our countrymen. Through the OFW Partylist, she aims to continue to protect, help, and guide our OFW’s, the labor sector, and their families as well. As she continues to believe that all our countrymen who work hard for the sake of their families should be treated as heroes and nothing less. Kami po sa OFW Partylist ay nais lamang tumulong sa ating mga kababayan. Ako at ng ating mga kasamahan sa OFW Partylist ay laging nandito para sa inyo. At ipinapangako ko po sa inyo na kami sa OFW Partylist ay dadalaw sa inyong mga tahanan. Ang hangarin po nang ating grupo na OFW Partylist ay mabigyan natin ng solusyon ang mga dinaranas na mga paghihirap ng ating mga kababayan, ang mga OFWs at ang labor sector at kanilang pamilya. Sisikapin po natin na mabigyang boses ang ating mga kababaihan. Ang bawat pamilya
