Last June 3, 2026, J. Amado Araneta Foundation - JAAF’s Liwanag Reading Program celebrated Independence Day with children from ChildHope Philippines and the candidates of Binibining Pilipinas.

With the question, “Ano ang pangarap mo para sa Pilipinas?” the children shared their dreams and hopes for the country. Afterwards, they learned about the history of the Philippines through an interactive storytelling session with Adarna House and went home with gift bags from Binibining Pilipinas Charities.

Ikaw, ano ang pangarap mo para sa Pilipinas?
