SM Supermalls invites overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) who are now in the Philippines to attend the opening of the second Global Pinoy Center (GPC) at SM City Fairview Annex today and avail themselves a Global Pinoy Card.

Notable OFWs such as Arnel Pineda (Journey vocalist), Rubilyn Amit (2009 Women’s 10-Ball Champion) and Amanda Van Cool (Survivor Philippines 2 sole survivor) will be honored during event. Glenn Ang, vice president for Operations of SM Supermalls, said that SM conceived of the Global Pinoy Program to applaud the sacrifices and dedication of OFWs to their families and the nation as a whole.

Ang also said that under this SM program, OFWs are better known as Global Pinoys and the SM Global Pinoy Centers stand as a concrete symbol of SM’s deep appreciation of the many overseas Filipinos who have been helping in the growth and development of the country.

The Global Pinoy Centers also function as a lounge (a la Prestige with free drinks) for the Global Pinoy Members and their beneficiaries. Any Global Pinoy who visits SM’s GPC can get his own personalized Global Pinoy Card which entitles him to exclusive rewards and privileges.
