Generika Drugstore Highlights Everyday Ginhawa for Filipino Families

From maternal dedication to accessible community healthcare, Generika Drugstore continues to put the well-being of Filipino families at the center of its mission. Through its campaign Kwentong Ginhawa: Sa Paraan Ni Mama that ran last May to July, the pharmacy chain celebrates the quiet, powerful ways mothers show love—whether through words of encouragement, warm care during illness, or ensuring the family stays healthy within a tight budget.

Five mothers and grandmothers inspired the panel of judges thru their extraordinary love and devotion: Rosita Marivic Diaz, a hardworking farmer and house helper who sacrificed tirelessly to send her children through school; Justiniana Mañosa, a 61-year-old delivery helper who continues doing heavy work while caring for her grandchildren; Lolita Gacho, an 81-year-old grandmother who brings relief to her family and community through traditional healing (hilot); Gregoria Maligalig, a resourceful mother and primary caregiver to her own elderly mother; and Mary Jane Roson, a resilient mother living with hypertension whose daily sacrifices inspired her daughter’s journey toward becoming a licensed teacher.

Building on this commitment to household wellness, Generika Drugstore is also helping families access free essential medicines under the government’s PhilHealth YAKAP initiative.

To highlight these real-life experiences, Generika Drugstore has launched the nationwide Kwentong Ginhawa Contest, giving participants a chance to be among the 10 winners who will receive ₱5,000 in cash each.
