PNP Officers’ Ladies Club Brings Medical Aid Nationwide

When people hear “PNP,” the stories aren’t always flattering, madalas, bad press. What most people don’t know is that beyond the headlines and uniforms, quiet acts of service are unfolding, led by women who’ve long stood in the background but are now stepping forward with purpose. The PNP Officers’ Ladies Club (PNPOLC), once simply a support group for police spouses, is stepping into a leadership role with something much more impactful than social events: the ongoing, nationwide LAB Virus Program, short for Love and Blessing.

And no, it’s not as ominous as it sounds. The LAB Virus Program brings essential medical services to Filipino communities, from major cities to far-flung barangays. In partnership with Cardinal Santos Medical Center, the initiative continues to provide:

  • Free health consultations
  • Basic laboratory services and free circumcision
  • Blood pressure and blood sugar monitoring
  • Flu and pneumonia vaccinations
  • Medicine distribution and wellness education

This is bayanihan in uniform, except it’s not the uniforms taking the lead, but the women behind them. “This used to be just the wives of PNP officers,” said Mrs. Mary Rose Marbil, National Adviser of the PNP Officers’ Ladies Club. “But because of the changing times, we saw that what was really needed was support for the police themselves. That’s why we transformed it into a foundation.”

Working with her husband, former PNP Chief Rommel Marbil, Mrs. Marbil helped shape a vision that’s both wide-reaching and built to last: a synchronized, sustained effort across all regional police offices. These medical missions are now carried out regularly, grounded not just in logistics, but with puso and genuine commitment to public service.

The journey doesn’t end here. To keep the program moving forward, Mrs. Marbil created a playbook to support incoming advisers. “We’ll back whoever takes the lead next,” she said, “and I’m sure she’ll have even more ways to help uplift the police force.”

By partnering with one of the country’s most respected hospitals, the PNP Officers’ Ladies Club has turned a simple idea into a movement, one that proves genuine service doesn’t always come from those in charge. Sometimes, it comes from those beside them.

I genuinely hope stories like this about compassion and real, positive change get more attention than the usual negative headlines people associate with the PNP. When groups like the PNPOLC step up with heart and action, they remind us all that service is bigger than the noise. I hope that more people and organizations are inspired by these efforts and join in helping communities across the Philippines because it’s through these acts of kindness and solidarity that we see the best of us. After all, good vibes and good deeds? That’s the kind of news I want to spread faster than the traffic in EDSA during rush hour. 😉
