(L-R) Commission on Filipinos Overseas (CFO) Chair Dante Francis Ang II, Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin, President Marcos, Jr.,
and NOF Founders Carmina Montesa Aldana and Dr. Philipp Aldana
The Neurosurgery Outreach Foundation (NOF), a Florida-based nonprofit organization, has been named by the Commission on Filipinos Overseas as one of the recipients of the 2024 Presidential Awards for Filipino Individuals and Organizations Overseas (PAFIOO) under the “Lingkod sa Kapwa Pilipino” (LINKAPIL) category.
The PAFIOO, to be conferred by President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr., is one of the highest recognitions conferred by the President of the Republic of the Philippines upon outstanding overseas Filipinos and foreign individuals and organizations. This award celebrates exceptional achievements and meaningful contributions that have advanced the welfare of overseas Filipinos, supported national development efforts, or raised the international profile of the Filipino diaspora.
The PAFIOO-LINKAPIL award honors NOF’s significant impact to the Philippines’ development and progress, in particular its dedication and contribution to delivering, advancing the quality and accessibility of neurosurgical treatment. As an awardee, NOF will receive the prestigious “Gawad ng Pangulo” medallion from the Philippine President on December 11th, 2024, at the Malacanang Palace. NOF is one among thirteen (13) distinguished and outstanding overseas Filipinos and foreign-basedorganizations from nine (9) different countries receiving this annual award.
