Anthony “AG” Gonzales and Kristine del Rosario-Gonzales did more than what was expected of them as parents all for their daughter Agatha who joined their school’s beauty pageant online. As a result of their unwavering support, the nine-year-old grade four student of Veritas Catholic School in Parañaque bagged all the major awards and was even crowned as Ms. Valiant 2021 under the elementary division.

One of the awards is the “Best in Costume,” where they made bird-inspired gown out of recycled balikbayan boxes they brought coming home from Singapore. They used to reside there before the pandemic. And with the help of other family members, who stayed late for three nights, they were able to create a masterpiece that went viral on social media.
