Set against a Filipiniana theme, the year-end party held on December 11 at the Manila Prince Hotel was a meaningful gathering that celebrated tradition, recognized dedication, and brought the GPM community together.  

  

The evening opened with a folklore dance performance by the GPM employees, followed by exciting raffles and games that brought energy and cheers across the party.

Filipino elegance took the spotlight during the Lakandiwa and Lakambini Competition as nominees confidently walked the stage in beautifully crafted Filipinianas and Barongs, celebrating a perfect blend of tradition and modern flair. Talent Acquisition Officer Roger Roman De Leon and Payroll Officer Sarah Virtudazo were named GPM’s Lakandiwa and Lakambini, respectively. Creativity and teamwork were also further highlighted through the Video Competition, where teams expressed their stories and talents in their own unique ways. The Drama Group took home the top award. 

  

To conclude the formal program on a meaningful note, the GPM Chorale serenaded the audience with their heartfelt rendition of Kumukuti-kutitap, leaving everyone inspired and filled with holiday spirit. As the program officially ended, the night transformed into a joyful celebration. The room filled with music, and the dance floor came alive as GPM MPs came together to celebrate, laugh, and welcome the year ahead. The GPM Year-End Party was a tribute to the people behind the GPM's success and to the strong sense of community that continues to move GPM forward.
