Since its inception on June 12, 2002, the Galing Pilipino Movement (GPM),  a private sector initiative,  has  been purposively stirring up our countrymen to recognize, affirm and  propagate   what  is good and excellent   about  being Pilipino, about  Pilipinos and  about the Philippines  as a counterforce  to the negativism and  cynicism  that downgrades our national spirit.

From only 70 registered members in 2002, GPM now has about  6,189 members nationwide. GPM has been awarded by the World Bank for its Lapu-Lapu City Dumpsite Community Transformation project and by the PRSP Anvil Award for its innovative Pamaskong Galing Pilipino project. In May 2006, GPM was given a 3-year PCNC accreditation as a donee institution, granting our donors 100% tax-free privilege for their support.

Galing  Pilipino  Movement  challenge and  empower every Pilipino to take  control of his  own destiny, to  be the  best  that  he can  be and to  live his life  making a  positive difference no matter how big or  small to  the world.  By reinforcing extraordinary achievement and outstanding service, GPM serves a value-centered foundation for nation-building.
