Cherry May Regalado, who holds the title of Miss Kalibo Ati-Atihan 2021 is on her quest to get the well-deserved crown of the Aliwan Fiesta Digital Queen. She was introduced during a media conference yesterday, among 11 other contestants from different provinces from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
Regalado, as one of the strong contenders in the competition, believes that if given the chance to win the crown, she will continue to initiate meaningful projects and advocacies for the betterment of the community in Kalibo despite the ongoing pandemic, including youth empowerment, sports, livelihood and helping the less-fortunate families that are affected by the COVID-19 situation, among others.
