It is time for EACH of US to CARE more, to SHINE, and to carry the light of HOPE everywhere! No one individual or group, not even our government alone, can do it all! This is the time that we need each other most, to work-together, joining our hands TOGETHER in MAKING A DIFFERENCE. Congrats Efren!
He got $100,000 from CNN in 2009. Now, year 2010, he's in the US asking for contibution for his project. Mahigit isang taon pa lang. Saan na napunta ang datung.
Isipin nyo gano kadami nag vote na pinoy para kay Efren. Kung lahat tayo mag kaka isa para sa mga gantong pagkakataon at bawat pagkakataon, uunlad ang PIlipinas.
Wala yan sa Presidente na nakaupo, KUNDI NASA BAWAT ISANG PILIPINO NA GUSTONG MAGING BAYANI tulad ni Efren.
while politician paid lip service to poverty all year round this guy was pushing cart to the slams and brought education to the once hopeless children who are bound for gang membership.
efren said to his volunteer, 'you are the change you are dreaming about' I hope the politician who love to talk about change could hear that.
Si EOFREN PENAFLORIDA DAPAT ANG GAYAHIN NATIN>. DAPAT SIYANG TULARAN.. KUNG AKO ANG PAPAPAPILIIN KUNG SINO ANG PEDENG MAGING PRESIDENTE NG PILIPINAS.. I WOULD CHOOSE EFREN.. THAT'S WHY IM PROUD OF MYSELF... MABUHAY PILIPINAS
hindi rin!!!! kasi uutuin lng siya ng mga makapangyarihan dyan!!! and lam mo na poor si efren at ang pamilya niya so kikidnapin yung mga magulang ni efren tas ayun lam mo na....mag-isip ka nmn kuya!!!!
Sa simpleng kaparaanan may magandang kinahihinatnan,,Sana ang lahat ng Politiko lalo na yung may kakayahang gumawa ng kagaya mo efren ay mamulat sa iyong ginawang halimbawa,,Maraming kabataan natin ang talagang hindi na nakakapag aral dahil sa kahirapan,edukasyon sagot sa kahirapan,,Mabuhay ka Efren,,,,,Isa kang tunay at ntypical na Filipino,,,,,,
Aside from commending this extra ordinary person, we should also become united in promoting him to become the Secretary of Education. we should not stop there, if someone is destined to become let him be. individuals of these peers are blessings from the almighty, but I say this to Efren, I admire your Ideology and I salute you. I am just hoping that you will go the same straight way, now that you're bigger. if he's a good man lets make him be better than his hero image. Education Sec. is next.
Bless your heart....you're a real hero and a real manifestation of CHANGE. I am so touched that a very simple guy like you could make such a huge impact on the lives of the needy. Kudos!!!!
a real hero is what the world needs like efren peñaflorida who is a true christian. he clearly shows to all of us that a loving and dedicated heart coupled with service-oriented activism results to heroism for the postmodern age that will revolutionize the whole world in which we live.

I am proud of you and all of your volunteers. you help all those kids with no expectation in return. you have a heartof gold and may god bless you all...
i almost cry when i saw the replay last night.. you make us filipino proud. you made other people be thankful for what they have. your a good example lalo na sa mga taong nasa ibang bansa na walang inatupag kundi magpayaman at magyabang. we should be helping each other. i remember when i went there for a visit i saw alot of kids on the ground and people just passing them by like they are not human being. nobody bothered to give a poor kid even for just a peso..
I just can't help praising you Efren. You're the real good change that needs to be. I hope your very inspirational message will reach & affect the people that need to change to the better.
Philippines need more people like him.A hero.Not politicians that brings shame to the country.Mabuhay ka.Salamat sa iyo sa karangalan na binigay mo sa inang bayan.
I'm so happy, the Philippines is starting to get more recognized. Before Manny or Charice, not a lot of people knew about the Phils, but now.... just amazing!! His speech was so touching too!!
He even wore a barong!! That shows just how much he takes pride in our country, and he cares so much! And he looks so young, he has much more to accomplish and a great future!!
Thanks Efren, you are truly my, and a lot of others', Hero!!
I remember David Foster said the next Supestar will come from Asia and it's already happening from Manny , Charice , and now Efren, we are proud of you for giving pride and honor to our country, truely a Philippine Heroes and an inspiration for us all, you both deserved the the fame and award.
There must be a reason why the Philippine flag fell from his push cart model when he accepted the hero of the year award and said his simple but touching speech. When Efren pick it up I thought to myself this is the guy who can save the Philipplnes. Remember "CHANGE" Obama use it.
i saw this kind of stuff in cnn,but it was in india,i guess they must had got the idea from efren...congrats,i wish more pinoy will do that,theres millions of really poor kids that lives in remote villages in phils that needed this kind of help...i wish they get help someday..
Wow. Efren, I salute and admired you. Your message touches me. I know I can come out sometime about this talent the good Lord has given me. Efren, thank you so much for making me think to do something.
i just read the article in Asian Journal about this (cuz i saw cavite and i was like "hey i'm from there!") anyways, pilipino o hindi mabuti ang ginagawa niya. galing siya sa isang bansa na may corrupt government o hindi bayani pa rin siya. there's heroes from different backgrounds like he said. i'm glad cnn does this and for ppl like efren and the MANY other nominees and non-nominees out there in the world making a difference; sacrificing their time/$/etc yet are happy doing so. salamat sa inyo
its a mixed feeling for me. im happy because the world acknowledged the effort of a filipino to voluntarily teach poor children..but its sad and disappointing because it only shows that the Philippine government is not addressing the lack of education problem in the country!!. walang efren penaflorida, walang pushcart educator kung nakakapagaral lahat..
Guys, let's just praise Efren for what he did & continuously doing to his fellowmen. Efren is the living example of a real hero. I hope he will inspire most of the politicians to change to the better & serve their countrymen honestly and fairly and not just to benefit themselves.
•I was taken a back in an interview with kuya efi really also think it was so personali think if we internalize what he said..we should realize that in this country were we blame our leaders for corruptionthat we must look inside our own how we love our family, friends,workmates,neighbours rich and poor..the youngand old.our barangay, our city, our country..our worldi think each of us must take part of the responsibilityas he
witness ako sa pggng hero nya.. nakikita ko sya lage2 dto smen pag papasok ako papuntang skul.. kta ko ang hirap nya sa pagtutulak.. pero wala sa kanya yun .. kasi ang importante .. nakakatulong sya sa bayan maliit man to o hindi.. mabuhay ka EFREN PENAFLORIDA
congrats all pinoy hu votes efren penaflorida becomes first pinoy award at cnn heroes sna marami pinoy na ka2lad ni ep bka malagay kau sa cnn. speechless p cia ng awarding.
kung sinuman siya- the person addressed mr. penaflorida as "ma'am" which is a proper and formal address to a female teacher/instructor. a very evident "crab mentality" evidently the person has want to imply
Efren is doing what he is doing not for money or fame. This is what makes it different from Pacman's achievement. Maybe Pacman would want to donate some of his money to help Efren build more carts and buy school supplies... Sorry for all the Pacman's fans out there.
you don't see the similarity of their achievements.
They dreamed, and they both worked HARD to make their dreams come true.
It is their WILL, something most of us don't have, that a country needs to progress. Yes, they had a very different set of goals, but what? They stood up and got away from poverty, mal-education, etc.
I am so proud of you Efren. I hope all these politicians fighting and killing each other would think now of an effective way of helping their constituents. I am inspired.
Such a remarkable young man. An ordinary person doing extraordinary things to help her fellowmen especially the poor. Congratulations Efren! Thanks PinasNgPinoy for sharing.
sna hindi dumami lahi ni efren, sa sarili natin kaya natin syang gayahin, wag umasa na may isa pang katulad nya ang darating para lng masandalan natin. tayo mismo, kumilos.
hi efren! im so proud that you became one of us as a teacher in San Sebastian College de Cavite two years ago, i still keep the notebook you gave me. and i am so happy that you were chosen as a cnn hero of 2009. i voted for you! congratulations! God bless your compassionate heart! you are an inspiration to all!
ukihanagara, whoever you are can you please read your own writing. at kung ako ang tatanungin kung marunong akong magbasa saan mo panitikan mo ako gustong subukan-english, pilipino, italiano? maraming salamat
congrats Efren..we are very proud of you. buti na lang may efren na katulad mo na isang pinoy..at least medyo gumanda ang image ng pinoy sa buong mundo..job wll done..go efren..tuloy mo and iyong magandang simualin..mabuhay ka!!! and thank you for being a hero.
You are among the reason why people like Mr. Efren "THE CNN HERO OF THE YEAR" Penaflorida is doing what he does best.
Obviously, you know how to read because you can type. Most probably, you were trained to read simple words. Syllables. Synapses of your brain is not enough to carry that much information.
@jcuser08 siguro mayaman ang pamilya mo dahil marunong kang gumamit ng internet at siguradong nakapag aral ka. kung mukhang pera ang tinanghal na CNN hero this year hindi yan magbibitiw ng salita sa media sa interviews niya na ibibigay niya lahat ang nakuha niyang dolyares. kung tutuusin dapat man lang kahit kalahati sa kanya diba dahil ang laki ng hirap niya at more than 10 years na niyang ginagawa ang serbisyo sa mga mahihirap na street children.
Eto ang mali sa atin, papuri tayo ng papuri, wala naman tayong gagayahin sa mga gawi nila.
Ilan lang silang gumagawa ng pagbabago, sa tingin niyo ba kaya nitong hubugin muli ang ating bansa?
Hindi lang dapat pagsaludo sa mga mabuting gawain nila pareng Ef (Cavite City din ako), Pacquiao, KC, atbp. ang atupagin natin, kundi ang direktang pagsisimula ng pagbabago.
you don't necessarily have to knock an opponent down in the ring to be hero, you can be one by defeating poverty and illiteracy which is a far more formidable enemy...mabuhay ka efren
Its not hard to be a HERO! everyone posses a hero within.. its up to us how we will unleashed it!! thank you EFREN for being an inspiration to the world.
MABUHAY to EFREN for doing such a wonderful job in helping to educate the poor kids in the Philippines. This should be an eye opener to all POLITICIANS who only think of their own pockets!!! EFREN, YOU make us very proud to be Filipinos abroad.
congrats efren and to all dtc members. sana di ka mag bago at ipatuloy nyo ang mga projects nyo. pls wag ka mag pa gamit sa mga politiko kasi segurado lalapitan ka ng mga yan lalo na kilala kna. didikit na yan sila sayu. mga hayop na yan.
This is a slap in the face to all CORRUPT POLITICIANS in the Philippines who has done nothing but hurt our country. I hope people in our country will be inspired of what Efren has achieved and done. Efren is right kung gusto natin ay pagbabago dapat mag simula sa ating mga sarili. Efren congrats and I wish you all the best and sana marami pa ang maging katulad mo sa ating bansa at marami ka pang matulungan! You inspired me to be better. Mauhay po ang Pilipinas and GOD bless our country!
Mabuhay ka Kuya Efren!!! You really deserve it! We're so proud of you... Congratulations!! This is so touching... Sana lahat ng Pilipino maiisip kung ano yung pinaparating nyo.. You're really an inspiration to many people... ÜÜÜ
PROUD TO BE PINOY... sana madami ang kagaya mo sa pinas, sa simpleng paraan na alam mo, malaki ang nagagawa at magiging resulta ang ilayo ang mga kabataan sa kahirapan at sa masamang impluwensya ng totoong realidad iba ka talga at karapat dapat kang BAGONG BAYANI NG BAGONG MILENYO. CONGRATS MORE POWER . kya kayo DEPED tama na corrupt kayo dami pondo binubulsa nyo lang dami nyo budget para maresolba ang mga hindi nkakapagaral . si EFREN simple lang gamit nya .wala kayo kay KUYA EFREN .KURAKOT kyo
Efren should head DEPED,, full of corrupt people there.. the quality of our education is degrading and they dont care... too busy enriching themselves (remember the shampoo, noodles etc. scandal) we need a hero like Efren.

@ jcuser08
You are among the reason why people like Mr. Efren "THE CNN HERO OF THE YEAR" Penaflorida is doing what he does best.
Obviously, you know how to read because you can type. Most probably, you were trained to read simple words. Syllables. Synapses of your brain is not enough to carry that much information.
READ. READ. READ. Google is your friend.

Efren won US$125,000.00 and he's donating 90% to the organization he co-founded. The 10% goes to church.
Sa halaga ng piso ngayon... (why bother, wag ka na mag-convert. Baka mag-nose bleed ka pa. hahahhaha!)

hes been doing this for years.
hes been doing this when no one thought of doing it, when his volunteers were few.
he has proven he has conquered the impossible and never even dreamt of being hailed as hero.
Lets hope he will not turn like the rest of our " not good example countrymen"
my bet is he wont!
PinasNgPinoy 2 years ago
@jcuser08 siguro mayaman ang pamilya mo dahil marunong kang gumamit ng internet at siguradong nakapag aral ka. kung mukhang pera ang tinanghal na CNN hero this year hindi yan magbibitiw ng salita sa media sa interviews niya na ibibigay niya lahat ang nakuha niyang dolyares. kung tutuusin dapat man lang kahit kalahati sa kanya diba dahil ang laki ng hirap niya at more than 10 years na niyang ginagawa ang serbisyo sa mga mahihirap na street children.
mag isip ka muna bago ka mag comment !

Don't be just proud.
Walk in their ways.
Eto ang mali sa atin, papuri tayo ng papuri, wala naman tayong gagayahin sa mga gawi nila.
Ilan lang silang gumagawa ng pagbabago, sa tingin niyo ba kaya nitong hubugin muli ang ating bansa?
Hindi lang dapat pagsaludo sa mga mabuting gawain nila pareng Ef (Cavite City din ako), Pacquiao, KC, atbp. ang atupagin natin, kundi ang direktang pagsisimula ng pagbabago.
PEACE.

This is a slap in the face to all CORRUPT POLITICIANS in the Philippines who has done nothing but hurt our country. I hope people in our country will be inspired of what Efren has achieved and done. Efren is right kung gusto natin ay pagbabago dapat mag simula sa ating mga sarili. Efren congrats and I wish you all the best and sana marami pa ang maging katulad mo sa ating bansa at marami ka pang matulungan! You inspired me to be better. Mauhay po ang Pilipinas and GOD bless our country!
