TAGUM CITY, Davao del Norte — A unique celebration is set to unfold at Robinsons Place Tagum on August 22, 2026. The Migrants Day Celebration: Caravan of Services promises more than just a job fair—it is a full day of free services designed to empower families and communities in one central location.
A Caravan for Migrants and Families
The event is specifically designed to serve overseas Filipino workers, their families, and aspiring migrants. It brings together government agencies, health providers, and businesses under one roof. The goal is to make essential services accessible and convenient for everyone, removing the need to travel to multiple offices.
This initiative recognizes the immense contribution of migrant workers to the nation's economy. It provides them with the support they need, whether they are preparing for a new journey abroad or reintegrating back home. The event is a heartfelt tribute to their sacrifices and a practical aid to their well-being.
A Day of Comprehensive Care
Visitors can expect a wide array of free services throughout the day. Health and wellness booths will offer dental consultations, psychosocial counseling, and rehabilitation therapy. Free haircuts and massage services add a touch of personal care, ensuring attendees leave feeling refreshed and valued.
Legal assistance will also be available for those with questions or concerns about contracts, rights, or other legal matters. One-stop-shop government services will streamline processes like document requests and applications. This comprehensive approach ensures that every aspect of a migrant's journey is addressed.
Bringing Government Closer to the People
A key highlight is the Overseas Employment Job Fair, which will feature legitimate opportunities for those seeking work abroad. This provides a safe and verified pathway for employment, protecting job seekers from illegal recruitment. Government agencies will be on hand to provide official information and guidance.
Beyond employment, the event will also offer agri-business support, including free seedlings and coaching for those interested in sustainable livelihoods. Business bazaars will showcase local entrepreneurs and their products. Online services booths will help bridge the digital divide, making technology accessible to all.
A Community Celebration
The caravan is designed to be a joyful and inclusive gathering. A fun photo booth will capture memories, adding a festive touch to the day. Families and friends are encouraged to come together and enjoy the atmosphere while taking advantage of the services.
Organizers have created a welcoming space where everyone feels supported. The event runs during regular mall hours, from 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM, making it convenient for working individuals. It is a celebration of community spirit and shared purpose.
