Hinirang na Happiest Pinoy si <a href="http://news.abs-cbn.com/lifestyle/09/15/15/happiest-pinoys-advice-those-not-so-happy">Richardson Navor</a>, isang propesor at financial analyst.</p><p>Kahit na may cerebral palsy, nagpursige si Navor para umasenso sa buhay at makatulong sa kapwa niyang PWD o persons with disabilities.</p><p>“I think more than my story about my physical disability, I won because of my ability to be able to help others,” ani Navor na nagtayo ng PUSH, isang organisasyon para sa mga PWD. </p><p>“Part of my winnings even went to the organization. It really helped a lot… Two hundred wheelchairs, 200 crutches, that’s a lot for Metro Manila already.”</p><p>Ngayong taon, nagdagdag ang mga organizer ng sampung kategorya sa Happiest Pinoy search upang kumatawan sa mga kabataan, senior citizen, OFW o overseas Filipino worker, kawani ng pamahalaan, manggagawa, PWD, negosyante, propesyonal tulad ng mga doktor at abogado, empleyado, at mga miyembro ng LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer) community.</p><p>Bawat isa sa mga kinatawan ay bibigyan ng P50,000. Mula rito ay pipiliin ang Happiest Pinoy winner na mag-uuwi naman ng P1 milyon.</p><p>Bitbit din niya ang karangalan na maging isang simbolo ng pag-asa sa mga Pilipino, ayon kay Navor. </p><p>“More than just a recognition, it’s actually a continuous reminder that you need to be an inspiration to others… More than ever, you need to be an epitome of optimism, that whatever challenges they are facing, they can surpass it,” aniya. </p><p>Maaaring mag-apply para sa Happiest Pinoy search sa pamamagitan ng text, internet, o pagbisita sa branches ng Cebuana Lhuillier hanggang Mayo 2019.
