Beyond the glitz and glamour of the stage, the Mr. and Ms. CHTM 2025 candidates proved that true beauty shines through purpose and action!

Together with the College Student Council (CSC) and the League of Tourism Students of the Philippines (LTSP) – UC Chapter, our candidates took part in a meaningful Community Service Program—a Tree Planting Activity at the Baguio Arboretum, Leonard Wood Road, Baguio City.

Guided and assisted by the City Environment and Parks Management Office (CEPMO), represented by Mr. Floro Bastian, the participants eagerly planted trees, showing their commitment to environmental sustainability and responsible tourism. Also present in this inspiring initiative were Mr. Mark Anthony Alvar, Chairman of Mr. and Ms. CHTM 2025 who led by example in this advocacy-driven event.

This tree-planting activity is more than just a symbolic gesture—it’s a pledge to protect Baguio’s lush environment for future generations. As students of Hospitality and Tourism, these young leaders recognize the importance of preserving nature, ensuring that Baguio remains the beautiful, green city that we all love.

Kudos to all the candidates, organizers, and partners who made this initiative possible! May this act of service inspire many to take part in making a difference—one tree at a time.
