Puregold’s ‘Pusong Panalo’ brightens students’ path in remote Rizal village

In an upland village in Tanay, Rizal, children would trek for up to one hour before sunrise just to make it to class. Many from poor and indigenous families, these students have no choice but to walk just to get an education.

To help make their daily trek safer and their school days brighter, leading supermarket chain Puregold Price Club, Inc. recently brought a comprehensive support package for Alas-Asin Elementary school.

The company’s support includes a reliable power source through solar panels, health and dental checkups, and essential goods, including school supplies for students and grocery packs for families. It also built a new playground, giving the community’s children a well-equipped space for play.

To support teachers and learners’ families, Puregold also delivered livelihood packages to provide them with new means to earn a living.

Ang ganda ng lente ng Puregold, nakita kami. Sobrang liwanag, nakita ‘yung pangangailangan ng school,” according to school head Marvie Guinto. “Although green ang kulay niyo, ginintuan ang puso ng mga staff.”

She noted how Puregold’s gift bags were packed with goodies that many of the children had never even seen or tried before.

Sobrang saya po kasi po kami ang napili ng Puregold at nabigyan po kami ng pagkain, drinks, at snacks, mga chocolate po, tsinelas at damit,” said one of the beneficiary students.

“‘Yung mga blessings nila, sobra na. ‘Yung dala nila masyadong madami. Thank you po Puregold sa mga biyaya na binigay niyo sa amin,” another student said.

Alas-Asin was the sixth school to benefit from Puregold’s “Pusong Panalo” program in 2025, as the top retailer sustained its program that aims to bridge the gap between urban and rural areas by providing much needed aid to overlooked communities.

The program, which started in 2024, has reached eight schools across the country so far, with the goal of providing urgent support, including learning technology, essential goods, classroom renovations, and solar panel installations for 30 more schools by 2028.

“Puregold believes that education is the key to a better life. For these children, this school represents their hope for a brighter future. We came here to provide better tools and facilities so these students can achieve their dreams,” said Puregold President Vincent Co.

Puregold believes that every Filipino child with a “gintong pangarap” deserves a fighting chance. Its Pusong Panalo program is looking for more schools to help.

Bitcoin Has Taken Gold’s Role In Today’s World, Eric Trump Says

Eric Trump on Tuesday described Bitcoin as a “modern-day gold,” calling it a liquid store of value that can act as a hedge to real estate and other assets. Related Reading: XRP’s Biggest Rally Yet? Analyst Projects $20+ In October 2025 According to reports, the remark came during a TV appearance on CNBC’s Squawk Box, tied to the launch of American Bitcoin, the mining and treasury firm he helped start. Company Holdings And Strategy Based on public filings and company summaries, American Bitcoin has accumulated 2,443 BTC on its balance sheet. That stash has been valued in the low hundreds of millions of dollars at recent spot prices. The firm mixes large-scale mining with the goal of holding Bitcoin as a strategic reserve, which it says will help it grow both production and asset holdings over time. Eric Trump’s comments were direct. He told viewers that institutions are treating Bitcoin more like a store of value than a fringe idea, and he warned firms that resist blockchain adoption. The tone was strong at times, and the line about Bitcoin being a modern equivalent of gold was used to frame American Bitcoin’s role as both miner and holder.   Eric Trump has said: bitcoin is modern-day gold — unusual_whales (@unusual_whales) September 16, 2025 How The Company Went Public American Bitcoin moved toward a public listing via an all-stock merger with Gryphon Digital Mining earlier this year, a deal that kept most of the original shareholders in control and positioned the new entity for a Nasdaq debut. Reports show that mining partner Hut 8 holds a large ownership stake, leaving the Trump family and other backers with a minority share. The listing brought fresh attention and capital to the firm as it began trading under the ticker ABTC. Market watchers say the firm’s public debut highlights two trends: mining companies are trying to grow by both producing and holding Bitcoin, and political ties are bringing more headlines to crypto firms. Some analysts point out that holding large amounts of Bitcoin on the balance sheet exposes a company to price swings, while supporters argue it aligns incentives between miners and investors. Related Reading: Ethereum Bulls Target $8,500 With Big Money Backing The Move – Details Reaction And Possible Risks Based on coverage of the launch, investors have reacted with both enthusiasm and caution. Supporters praise the prospect of a US-based miner that aims to be transparent and aggressive about building a reserve. Critics point to governance questions, possible conflicts tied to high-profile backers, and the usual risks of a volatile asset being held on corporate balance sheets. Eric Trump’s remark that Bitcoin has taken gold’s role in today’s world reflects both his belief in its value and American Bitcoin’s strategy of mining and holding. Whether that view sticks will depend on how investors and institutions respond in the months ahead. Featured image from Meta, chart from TradingView
