MANILA, Philippines — The Philippine Olympians Association (POA) hailed Bounty Agro Ventures Inc. (BAVI), the company that owns Chooks-to-Go, for the help and support the latter has extended to Olympians.

POA president Akiko Thomson-Guevarra, secretary general Ral Rosario and advisor Freddie Webb personally handed over the award to BAVI president Ronald Mascariñas at the latter’s residence in Calauan, Laguna.

“We are blessed that the three of us got here because this is an opportunity for us to know Sir Ronald and personally extend him our appreciation for his efforts,” said Webb, a member of the Philippine basketball team that competed in the 1972 Munich Games.

“It’s common to see support for Olympians at the peak of their careers but the company just quietly stepped in and provided a means of livelihood for these sports heroes past their glory days,” said Thomson-Guevarra, who swam for the country in the 1988, 1992 and 1996 editions of the Olympics.
