PICPA - FAB Chapter

A proud moment for our PICPA Freeport Area of Bataan (FAB) Chapter! ✨

We extend our warmest congratulations to Dr. Manuel Macailao and Mr. Danilo Amiado Jr. on being officially conferred as members of the ASEAN Chartered Professional Accountant (ASEAN CPA) last March 17, 2026, during a prestigious ceremony held at Okada Manila.

The ASEAN CPA is a recognized regional credential that signifies professional excellence, competence, and the ability to practice accountancy across ASEAN member countries. It reflects not only technical expertise but also a strong commitment to uphold the highest standards of integrity and professionalism in the field.

Your PICPA FAB family is truly proud of this remarkable achievement. Your dedication and excellence continue to inspire fellow CPAs and elevate the profession in our region.

Congratulations once again! 🎉

Congratulations, Top 25 finalists! 🎉

Love was felt beyond flowers and chocolates today. ❤️

On February 14, 2026, the Philippine Institute of Certified Public Accountants Freeport Area of Bataan Chapter (PICPA FAB) celebrated “FAB-IBIG” by spending the morning with the patients of the Geriatric and Neurological Developmental Unit of Mariveles Mental Wellness and General Hospital.

Led by Chapter President Mirasol Floren, together with Central Luzon Region Junior Regional Director Ferdinand San Diego, Past President Marites M. Bartolome, Secretary Erica Mae Gadiano, and our dear scholars, the team shared songs, dances, heartfelt conversations, and small gifts for the patients to use during their stay at the hospital.

We were also blessed to have Shalee, a talented local singer from Mariveles, who brought music and warmth to both patients and nurses. As she serenaded the room, our scholars handed flowers to the nurses—our everyday heroes who care tirelessly for others. The officers likewise offered a special performance of our chapter theme song, Umagang Kayganda, making the celebration even more meaningful.

Seeing the patients smile, laugh, sing, and dance with us was a beautiful reminder of what Valentine’s Day truly means. Even more touching was witnessing the joy of the nurses as they saw their patients genuinely happy.

In our own simple way, we hope we were able to share light, love, and encouragement.

PICPA FAB remains committed to CSR initiatives that create positive and lasting impact in our community.

Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone. 💕
