Our proudest moment of the past year:
Seeing the appreciation from our partner communities.

Biggest challenge from the past year:
In this past year, our team [was on] the edge of shutting down due to insufficient student volunteers and conflict inside the organization. But, as an Enactus team we saw this as an opportunity to reorganize and open doors for more committed individuals who want to take part in changing the world to make it a better place.

Team described in one word:
Empowered.

Get to Know Us:

Three years ago, Roseil saw an enrollment notice for Enactus on a university bulletin board. She signed her name there and joined our Enactus Philippines team in hopes of becoming an effective volunteer. Now as team leader, she says her greatest challenge involves working around a lack of volunteers. “I didn’t lose hope,” she says. “Instead, I tried to think of other possible ways [of] solving this problem, like encouraging my schoolmates and classmates to get involved in the Enactus program.” Roseil is pursuing a Bachelor of Secondary Education in English degree and plans to graduate in March 2018.

More about Roseil:

  • Theme song: “The World is Ours [Coca-Cola theme song for 2014 FIFA World Cup,” various artists
  • Who inspires me: My father, My father, Ridge Regan L. Tanilon
  • Enactus in one word: Service
  • Best Enactus moment: Talking to our community partners and seeing them being empowered.
  • In five years, I will be … “a public-school teacher [and] an entrepreneur running my own business and continuously helping other people.

James says he was ‘very timid” when a former classmate and team leader invited him to join our Enactus Philippines team in 2014 — its second year on campus. “I had trouble facing our community partners,” he says. “[But] as this role puts tremendous pressure on me, I have given my best shot to turn myself into a more competent individual.”  The team has struggled with manpower and other issues, but James says their work has been “exhaustive but productive.” He plans to graduate in March 2018 with a Bachelor of Secondary Education in Mathematics degree.
