Filipino Young Leaders Program (FYLPRO)’s Tayo and The Angeles Company Wins Award in 2026 National Health Information Awards
The Filipino Young Leaders Program (FYLPRO)’s Tayo and The Angeles Company was selected as a winner in the 33rd annual National Health Information Awards.
This program recognizes the nation’s best consumer health information programs and materials. The “Mag Vax Tayo” public service announcement series received a Bronze Award for Video in the Health Promotion/Disease and Injury Prevention Information class via the Media/Publishing division.
Released last fall and produced by The Angeles Company, “Mag Vax Tayo” is a comedic and heartwarming Filipino American vaccine confidence campaign told through three interconnected stories that showcase family, faith, and flair.
From the stubborn Tito Boy who is shaken by a surreal wake up call — to a hesitant Tita Flor — who turns her fears into laughter thanks to Nurse Mary — and a dramatic showdown between trendy titas who realize that the ultimate status symbol is good health, these vignettes celebrate the resilience and humor of the community.
The awards program is coordinated by the Health Information Resource Center, a national clearinghouse for consumer health information programs and materials.
