Grab Philippines and MOVE IT recognized their top women drivers and delivery partners last Sunday, March 17, at the “Babae Ako, Babiyahe Ako: Women’s Month Event.” Recognized for their exemplary performance, high order and ride completion rates, and positive customer ratings, the awardees stand as paragons of female excellence on the road.

Grab and MOVE IT Honors Top Women Drivers

Among the awardees is Veronica Arabe, a 66-year-old GrabTaxi driver-partner from Baguio City. “As a single parent, a lot has changed in my life since I started with GrabTaxi. One of the most important things GrabTaxi has provided me is the ability to send all three of my children to college. It’s truly a blessing for our family,” shares Arabe. Having started on the Grab platform in 2019, Arabe shares that Grab has made her more confident in steering the wheel daily, traversing roads safely and worry-free as she relies on features such as passenger identification, GrabMaps, and Share-Your-Ride.

Joining Arabe in the roster of women driver honorees is the youngest GrabCar driver-partner in Iloilo City – 22-year-old Arianne Hinara Claire Geguera. Having just finished her Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Criminology at the St. Therese MTC-Colleges, Geguera immediately joined GrabCar as she prepares for the next chapter in her career. “After graduation, I immediately joined GrabCar as a driver-partner to save up for my review and board exam. Grab has become a stepping stone for me to fulfill my dream of being part of the Tri-Bureau,” Geguera shares she appreciates the flexibility of time being a GrabCar driver. Being her own boss, she gets to balance her own time as she allots some days for her board exam review.

The top two-wheel women drivers also took center stage during the event, and one of them is Sheryl Barrantes from MOVE IT. Barrantes reveals that even though she has been with MOVE IT for just under a year, she has already seen how she is able to achieve optimal earnings on the moto-taxi platform, which she uses to support her family. “I earn well with MOVE IT. This is where I get the funds for my father’s dialysis and our daily needs. Female MOVE IT riders like me who are here today are proof that the roads and ride-hailing are not just for men.”

Hailing from different backgrounds, these brave, dedicated female drivers and riders share a loud and clear call for all current and aspiring women Ate Grab and Ate MOVE IT: “We can do it too!”. Besides the awardees, thousands of other women drivers from all over the Philippines flocked to the Metro Tent Convention Center in Pasig as the leading superapp and the homegrown moto-taxi company reiterated their commitment to creating inclusive livelihood opportunities for every Filipino – shaping a more gender-neutral transportation sector.

Grab Philippines, together with MOVE IT, has recently rolled out a comprehensive Women’s Program under the social upliftment campaign GrabAsenso. The key facets of the program include a series of trainings on topics like vehicle maintenance, first aid, and preventive servicing co-facilitated with agencies TESDA, MMDA, and the Philippine Commission on Women. The leading superapp has also officially activated its Women Preference Toggle – a new tech feature on the Grab driver app that is exclusive to women driver-partners. The Women Preference Toggle prioritizes the pairing of women drivers with female passengers, significantly increasing the confidence of driver-partners in safely plying the roads of the metro.
