Only entries with complete requirements will be subjected to the selection process.

TAYO is a program jointly implemented by the National Youth Commission and the Office of Senator Francis Pangilinan. The program aims to recognize, reward and encourage youth organizations from doing projects that aid their communities while maximizing their existing resources.
