The short survey is part of Smile API's efforts in creating a win-win situation between workers, financial institutions and other businesses when it comes to availing of financial services and products, making better credit decisions, including improving recruitment and hiring processes.

MANILA, Philippines (June 9, 2022) -- Smile API, the leading information infrastructure startup company in the Philippines focused on employment and finance data, has launched a survey for Philippine-based workers to participate in and share more information about how they work and how they are paid.

Smile API is also giving an incentive for those participating by giving them the chance to win Lazada gift cards as well as the opportunity to donate to the Tahanang Walang Hagdanan, Inc (TWHI), a non-stock, non-profit organization that provides programs and services to Filipinos with orthopedic disabilities.

For every completely answered survey Smile will be donating ₱50 to TWHI. Those who register and complete the survey can join the raffle and increase their chances of winning by referring as many coworkers as they can. The survey is available on various online platforms which will run until September 30, 2022.

The short survey is part of Smile API's efforts in creating a win-win situation between workers, financial institutions and other businesses when it comes to availing of financial services and products, making better credit decisions, including but not limited to improving recruitment and hiring processes.

Smile API chose to partner with TWHI since their mission of inclusion intersects with Smile's own values and that is helping people, especially those in underserved communities to gain access to better opportunities.

Founded in 1973 by a Belgian nun, Sr. Valeriana Baerts, ICM, the TWHI center works to uplift the lives of persons with orthopedic impairment – by helping them become self-sufficient and contributing members of the society.

According to TWHI Administrative Manager Ramon Apilado, their center runs a number of workshops employing PWDs for the production of wheelchairs, furniture, bags, and many other goods, including the tertiary packaging of medicines from partner pharmaceutical companies.

"We may be persons with disabilities but we can do jobs other people can’t do, you just have to give us the opportunity and we can do the job well," Apilado said. "We are thankful to Smile API for choosing our organization TWH to be one of their partners, and we are very happy because for very completed survey, 50 pesos will be donated to our organization."
