Team Quirino Province, a delegation of nine Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) officials including Hon. Steven Gem Whigan, SK Chairperson of Mangandingay, achieved a major success at the EMPOWER Youth Leadership Summit (EYLS 2025) held from November 13โ15, 2025, by winning the coveted Best Community Impact Award on November 14, 2025. This recognition was earned for the team's presentation of the CSK Bahala Sayo Program during the Project Pitching Session, which showcased their "exceptional innovation, creativity, and strategic thinking" and commitment to sustainable, youth-led community development.
Among the successful delegation was Hon. Whigan who made a stand to present the program to the team, made the concept broader for the team, and championed the project on the national stage for the province.

The heart of the winning pitch was SK Mangandingay's "CSK Bahala Sayo" program. This high-priority initiative was the brainchild of Hon. Hernan Cedrick Gamet (Mangandingay SK Member) and Daniela Gamet (Former Mangandingay SK Member).
The program directly addresses the need for professional advancement in their community. Its key function is to provide crucial financial assistance to local youth for the Career Service Examination (CSE). The initiative aims to significantly increase the number of Civil Service Eligibles within Mangandingay, bolstering career opportunities and local governance capability.

The official Certificate of Recognition highlighted that the project reflects "outstanding leadership and dedication to community-driven development," with the hope that Quirino's success will contribute to "shaping meaningful change and inspiring fellow youth leaders across the nation."
The award was signed by Mr. Sheridan F. Gamol, Executive Director of Empower PH, solidifying the national recognition of Quirino's commitment to delivering impactful, youth-led solutions for an inclusive future.
The win solidifies Quirino's position as a leader in innovative local governance and sets a strong example for other Sangguniang Kabataan nationwide.
