They are beacons of hope and possibility for every aspiring Filipino athlete dreaming of making their mark on the world stage,” DigiPlus chair Eusebio Tanco said in his welcome remarks. “DigiPlus is immersely proud to support champions like Carlos, whose relentless pursuit of excellence embodies the spirit of the Filipino people.”

Yulo thanked DigiPlus and ArenaPlus for their support.

“I’m deeply grateful to DigiPlus and ArenaPlus for celebrating this win with me and recognizing my persev

He advised aspiring athletes to work hard and stay determined to succeed.

“I faced a lot of challenges to reach where I am right now. I’m glad I was able to overcome these challenges and I thank God for making my dream of winning medals in the Olympics come true,” Yulo, who will go to Paris to cheer on the six Filipino Paralympians, said.
