There are lots of international tournaments lined up for them and I’m confident they will perform well and continue putting the Philippines in the softball and tennis maps”, said Lhuillier, ASAPHIL and UTP President.
Lhuillier has been the main supporter of the both the RP Blu Boys and Blu Girls, multi-gold medalists in Southeast Asian Games and consistent podium finishers in Asian Level. Lhuillier is also the man behind top tennis players former world number 17 Treat Huey; doubles specialist and currently ranked 136 Ruben Gonzales; and, former Australian Juniors doubles champion Francis Casey Alcantara, personally funding their international competitions for several years now.
The RP Blu Girls are currently deep in training for the upcoming Women’s Softball Asia Cup to be held in South Korea from April 2-8. They are also expected to contend for a medal together with the Blu Boys in the Asian Games on September . Cebuana Lhuillier Sports Ambassadors Huey, Gonzales and Alcantara are all currently representing the country’s colors in the ATP and ITF doubles competitions. All them won several titles in ITF doubles tournaments in 2022 and all are just outside the elite world’s top 100 doubles players.
Lhuillier is not only focusing on the elite athletes. Thru ASAPHIL and UTP, Lhuillier spearheads grassroots development thru hundreds of age-group tennis competitions, open tournaments and even club tournaments thru the help of sponsors Cebuana Lhuillier, Palawan Pawnshop, UNILAB, Mr. Freeze, PhilCare, Navegar, DFNN, Madison Galeries, Asia Traders Corp and Chris Sports, to discover fresh tennis talents. ASAPHIL, on the other hand, is excited to bring back national competitions to continuously hone local talents in preparation for international competitions in the years to come.
Lhuillier explained: “I have high hopes for both Philippine softball and tennis as these are the two sports where I firmly believe Filipinos have what it takes to be the world’s best, and I vow to continue giving them my all out support to make this a reality”.
Jean Henri Lhuillier, the visionary who changed the landscape of microfinance in the country, has been also helping transform the country’s sports program in a big way. A stalwart supporter of Philippine sports for over 30 years, his extensive contributions span multiple disciplines including basketball in the past. But most notably, Lhuillier was celebrated for his commitment to grassroots sports development and for bolstering the country’s national teams of both softball and tennis.
TENNIS PATRON FOR 3 DECADES
Lhuillier’s first foray in supporting tennis development in the Philippines started way back in 1998 with the staging of a series of Cebuana Lhuillier Men’s Tennis Open tournaments and ever since that, there was no stopping him from pushing Philippine tennis to greater heights.
He has since helped the development of tennis in the Philippines through various ways such as grassroots program through the Cebuana Lhuillier Age Group tennis which has consistently held more than 50 tournaments nationwide for more than a decade already. From these tournaments were the likes of future national team members like Francis Casey Alcantara and Jeson Patrombon were discovered.
He has also been a staunch supporter of the national team having been a team manager numerous times of both the Davis Cup and Southeast Asian Games national teams. Aside from national teams, he and his company Cebuana Lhuillier has been supporting the individual international campaigns of top tennis players such as Cecil Mamiit, Eric Tainio, Katharina Lehnert and Treat Huey in the past to current stars Ruben Gonzales and Francis Casey Alcantara helping all of them reach their highest world rankings in both singles and doubles.
He was also responsible in making the sport popular in the country bringing top international players in the country through the ATP Men’s Challenger as the ITF Men’s Futures tournaments. He also was the team manager and co-owner of the Manila and Philippine Mavericks in the International Premier League with tennis superstars Serena Williams and Andy Murray among his players As president of the Unified Tennis Philippines (UTP) for 7 years, Lhuillier has been responsible also for supporting top junior players to play in Asian junior tournaments as well as the WTA Future Stars. Thru the UTP, Lhuillier continues to support nationwide tournaments in both juniors and open sections.
MAN BEHIND PHILIPPINE SOFTBALL’S RESURGENCE As president of the Amateur Softball Association of the Philippines (ASAPHIL) for 17 years already, Lhuillier has been responsible for the resurgence of the sport of softball. Just like in tennis, Lhuillier has been supporting both the grassroots programs as well the national teams though ASAPHIL.
ASAPHIL, under the leadership of Lhuillier has been conducting tournaments such as the annual Summer Grand Slam National Open, Batang Pinoy, Palarong Pambansa, Philippine National Games among others. They have also been active conducting softball clinics for all stakeholders: players, coaches and even tournament officials.
With Lhuillier at the helm, the RP Blu Girls and Blu Boys have been performing extremely well in internal competitions. RP Blu Girls have won 7 straight SEAGames gold medals, silver medal in the 2017 Asian Women’s Softball Championships and have been in the top 4 five times. They boast of beating several top 10 world-ranked teams in previous World Cup competitions and was previously ranked number 1 in Asia prior to the pandemic. They are currently ranked number 4 in Asia and number 12 in the world.
Not to be left behind, the RP Blu Boys have been excelling as well with 4 gold medals in SEA Games, 5 silver medals in Asian Men’s Softball championships and was top 10 in the 2022 World Cup. They are currently ranked number 3 in Asia and number 10 in the World.
But there has been no stopping for Lhuillier and his wards. This year 2023 has been a huge year for Philippine Softball in the international arena. No less than 4 national teams qualified for the World Cup.
RP Blu Boys secure a bronze medal in the 12th Men’s Softball Asia Cup last June to qualify for the Men’s Softball World Cup. The RP Blu Girls snagged fourth place in the 18th Women’s Softball Asia Cup 2023 held last July to book a World Cup berth. The Under-15 girls’ team secured a bronze medal and has additionally clinched a spot in the 2023 WBSC World Cup for U15 Women’s Softball. Meanwhile, another team groomed by ASAPHIL, the Co-ed squad, is intensively preparing for this year’s WBSC Co-Ed Slow Pitch Softball World Cup, following their impressive silver medal performance in the Co-Ed Slow Pitch Softball Asia Cup last May.
ON TO THE ASIAN GAMES
As his softball and tennis athletes prepare to see action in the upcoming Asian Games with the RP Blu Girls and Ruben Gonzales and Francis Casey Alcanatar vying for medals, Jean Henri Lhuillier declares he will not pause until the Philippines’ softball and tennis teams under his watch succeed in seizing the glory and recognition they so deserve. Far from resting on his laurels, Lhuillier is energized for the challenges ahead: “I’m just getting started. I am incredibly optimistic about the future of Philippine softball and tennis. I firmly believe we have the potential to be world leaders in these sports, and I am committed to making this vision a reality.”

Cebuana Lhuillier president and CEO Jean Henri Lhuillier is on a mission to positively touch and change the lives of millions of Filipinos for the better through his numerous pursuits.
Lhuillier has successfully transformed Cebuana Lhuillier to be the Philippines’ leading microfinance provider, starting as a pawnshop to becoming the largest and leading microfinance institution in the country with close to 3500 branches. Its core products and services such as pawning, money transfer and insurance have aided millions of Filipinos achieve financial wellness and empower them to provide for their loved ones.
“We constantly innovate and improve our products to tailor fit the needs of our Ka-Cebuanas. I’ve always believed that if we give people good financial options, they are capable of making smart decisions financially,” he said.
Lhuiller makes sure that clients are given the best possible products and services through groundbreaking innovations. On top of offering pawning, money transfer and insurance products, Cebuana Lhuillier has now made savings and investment accessible to the unbanked and underbanked providing micro-savings, jewelry selling and micro-investment.
Through its micro-savings product, the company has addressed the pain points in opening a savings account by offering a low start-up amount with less documents and no maintaining balance. Micro-savings is made accessible for the masses through all Cebuana Lhuillier branches nationwide.
The Iponaryo Movement, another innovative idea of Lhuillier, has already registered 7 million account holders.
Cebuana Lhuillier has also enabled Filipinos to gain access to affordable investment through jewelry selling and micro-investment. The company encourages the public to invest in gold through FB Live, its pawnshop branches, the website and other marketplaces.
Realizing the need to make it easier for people to start a business, Lhuillier spearheaded the creation of the Ka Negosyo Center, a one-stop business shop on June 2023. The program provides business mentorship through videos, provides assistance on sales and marketing, lends financial and legal advises, as well as offers financial assistance through loans, micro-savings and insurance.
As the head of the Cebuana Lhuillier Foundation Inc. (CLFI), Lhuillier has helped make education more accessible by donating classrooms, learning centers, conference rooms, and buildings. Part of CLFI’s major thrust is the implementation of the Alternative Learning System (ALS) along with 3 other initiatives – Nationwide Scholarship Program, Spiritual and Social Enhancement Program, and Special Projects on Education.
An avid support of sports development, Lhullier helped create the Cebuana Lhuillier Age Group tennis which has held more than 50 tournaments nationwide in over 10 years. He also managed the Davis Cup and Southeast Asian Games national teams while supporting individual international campaigns of top tennis players Ruben Gonzales and Francis Casey Alcantara.
Lhuliier is the president of the Unified Tennis Philippines (UTP) for 7 years running, alongside his leadership of the Amateur Softball Association of the Philippines (ASAPHIL) for 17 years now.
The Lhuillier name has become familiar with Filipinos mainly because of the popularity and nationwide presence of Cebuana Lhuillier pawnshops. As its long-time CEO and President, Jean Henri Lhuillier is generally known to the Filipino public as the man behind the Cebuana Lhuillier brand.
Jean Henri Lhuillier, or JHL, however, wears many hats: a very successful businessman and highly respected tycoon; an advocate of entrepreneurs and micro, small, and medium enterprises; a public service leader who leads socio-civic initiatives for marginalized groups through the PJL Foundation; and an ardent supporter of Philippine sports development through softball and tennis.
But there is another role JHL portrays that is very distinguished, but many Filipinos may not be aware of: the first Honorary Consul General of the Republic of San Marino to the Philippines.
Located on the northeastern side of the Apennine Mountains and surrounded by north-central Italy, San Marino is recognized as the world’s oldest surviving republic and the fifth-smallest country in the world covering a land area of just over 61 sq km.
The Republic of San Marino decided to establish a General Consulate in the Philippines in 2007 to monitor and report on political, economic, and social developments in the Philippines (with a particular focus on the fast-growing tourism sector), to promote trade and cultural exchanges between San Marino and the Philippines, to raise awareness of San Marino, and to assist Sammarinese here in the country. To head this General Consulate, The Republic of San Marino instated JHL as the first Honorary Consul General of the Republic of San Marino to the Philippines.
After being bestowed the position, JHL proudly said: “It is a priceless honor. I am thankful to the great state of San Marino for granting me this privilege, and for entrusting its welfare under my stewardship here in a country so far away. I take special pride to be its representative and be able to share the rich culture and traditions that it has with the Filipino community”.
As Honorary Consul General, JHL created a ten-point agenda that the General Consulate has undertaken in the fulfillment of its functions and accomplishment of its goals.
• Trade and Economic Cooperation – taking part in the European Chamber of Commerce and spearheaded a Memorandum of Understanding on intercountry adoption.
• Cultural Exchange Program
• Diplomatic Consulates – assisting Samarinese here in the Philippines and maintaining international relations through the Consular Corps.
• Educational Partnerships – encouraging educational exchanges, like internships.
• Technology and Innovation – partnering with San Marino Innovations.
• Environmental Collaboration – organizing events such as Fun run for the Mangroves and Night Bazaars.
• Healthcare Cooperation – spearheading a program that assures the mental health of soon-to-be adopted kids.
• Sports and Youth engagements –conducting lectures among FEU students entitled “Beyond Diplomacy: Cultural ties between the Philippines and The Republic of San Marino”; publishing a children’s book about finding families and the importance of love and care which won the Filipino’s Choice Award at this year’s Philippine Book Festival; and, holding sports clinics
• Crisis Response and Humanitarian Aid – taking active part in different disaster assistance programs.
• Engaging with other Diplomats – joining affairs and celebrations hosted by Diplomats of other nations to support the goal of their countries to make a mark in the Philippines.
The Honorary Consul General of San Marino’s ten-point agenda has proven to be very successful throughout the years in protecting, promoting, and facilitating not only the interests of the Republic of San Marino but those of the Philippines as well.
In honor of Jean Henri Lhuillier’s work and dedication to service, the Republic of San Marino conferred him with the rank of Official Knight of the Equestrian Order of Saint Agatha. The Order, given to foreign nationals who have positively contributed charitable and other services for the benefit of San Marino with at least 10 years of service, was conferred on Jean Henri, despite serving for only seven years, because of his exemplary work and contribution to the state as its Consul General in the Philippines.

DTI FAIR TRADE PERMIT NO. FTEB-167582 SERIES OF 2023
As various parts of the Philippines are hit by multiple strong typhoons all year round, many Filipino families are left with no house, clothes, or food. Most of the affected population does not anticipate the destruction that a typhoon would bring and is left unprepared for the resulting challenges.
With all the debilitating and unforeseen events, including the calamities and COVID-19 surge, more and more overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) are worried about their loved ones in the Philippines. Being away from their friends and family in the country only heightens the uneasiness they feel.
To help as much as they can, some OFWs send money online or through money transfer services so that their loved ones can prepare emergency kits and essentials for sudden and unavoidable happenings they may encounter in the future.
At Cebuana Lhuillier, we are dedicated to being your partner and helping you get your funds to your loved ones safely. We offer one of the best money transfer services in the Philippines, and we can quickly get your hard-earned money to your families so they can prepare their emergency essentials at home.
As soon as the money is remitted, they can assemble the following items:
Health Kits
There are many reasons why health or first-aid kits should be a staple emergency essential in every household. These collections of supplies and equipment are highly beneficial and can temporarily stop or alleviate common injuries while waiting for paramedics or rescuers to get to you.
It is also easy to gather different things for your kit. After sending money through online money transfer services like the eCebuana app, your loved ones can simply purchase some of the essentials online, so they don’t have to go out just to buy them.
Basic Kits
Here are the common things health experts recommend to put in your health kit:
Bandage Strips
Adhesives Tapes or Duct Tapes
Cotton Balls and Swabs
Alcohol and Hydrogen Peroxide
COVID-19 Kits
Additionally, to customize your health kit into a COVID-19 care kit, you can add the following:
Digital Thermometer
Pulse Oximeter
Paracetamol
Disposable gloves and masks
With all of these in your kit, you can be a bit more confident when facing calamities, emergencies, or illnesses. It is also recommended to add more things you think your family members may need, such as special allergy medications, prescribed antibiotics, and maintenance pills.
Masks and PPEs
Wearing a face mask is now a standard protocol when going outside or entering public facilities. Additionally, personal protective equipment is required when undergoing certain medical or personal procedures.
The effectiveness of both protective gears is proven and backed by various health organizations, including the U.S. Food & Drug Administration.
Grocery Supplies
OFWs deserve the best international money transfer service when sending their loved ones cash to buy groceries. Nowadays, restrictions are placed to help regulate the spread of the coronavirus disease, and people are advised not to go out often. Stocking up on food, bathroom products, and other essentials is recommended to minimize exposure to possible cases.
In addition, when COVID-positive patients are admitted to quarantine facilities, they would need bags of grocery supplies to get through their self-isolation period. Having a reliable partner for money transfer services like Cebuana Lhuillier will help the patients’ loved ones send money smoothly and quickly.
Medicines
You can add your medicinal supplies to your health kits, but it is preferable to assemble a separate medicine cabinet or pouch for them to organize your medicines according to their uses.
The most important kinds of medication you should have are:
Aspirin
This medicine works as a pain reliever for adults, and per the American Heart Association, it can help people when they experience a heart attack.
Acetaminophen
Acetaminophen is a non-steroidal drug that reduces inflammation caused by different injuries you might encounter during typhoons, fires, and so on.
Antihistamine
Allergic reactions can happen anytime, and antihistamines are the most effective drugs against them. Most antihistamines are taken orally, and in some cases, there are also creams that can be applied directly to the body part affected.
Once you have collected all of these in your medicine box, make sure to consult a doctor or research the proper dosage instructions for each medication. Every pill has different effects, so it is best to review them one by one to be able to use them appropriately.
Disinfectants
Having clean and sterile surroundings is a must. Most people nowadays carry alcohol sprays and sanitizers even when they are simply going out for errands. Purchasing disinfectants and making sure we have plenty of alcohol or hand sanitizer at home can ensure that you have the tools needed to sterilize your surroundings.
To find the best disinfecting agents, you must consider the following factors:
Effectiveness
Each disinfectant has a different effectivity. When diluted in water, alcohol can be a great protectant against a wider range of bacteria. Meanwhile, the ones containing chlorine compounds effectively kill highly resistant viruses and remove other bodily fluids.
Kill Time
The typical kill time for disinfecting agents ranges from 30 seconds to 5 minutes. Other cleaning supplies that claim to kill bacteria longer than that should remain wet on a surface to be actively working.
Ease of Use
Most of the disinfectants sold now are pretty easy to use. Many of them are sprayable, dilutable in water, or appliable on surfaces. Uncomplicated application is an important factor since cleaning infected areas should be done quickly and as easily as possible.
Others
Investing in an oxygen tank will also help you become more prepared for specific emergencies. Since the pandemic started, the demand for this equipment has increased to 1.1 million cylinders in third-world countries alone. Having one can be a total lifesaver, especially when there are confirmed COVID-positive members in the family. However, buying a brand-new one can be a bit pricey.
With the eCebuana app, you can save money and send more to your family so they can secure an emergency essential right away.

Cebuana Lhuillier’s annual Disaster Resilience Forum aims to continue the ongoing discussions on various multi-sectors’ initiatives and efforts in building disaster resilient communities.
With the support of the Insurance Commission of the Philippines and GIZ, the company helps prepare Filipinos for imminent dangers, such as natural disasters, by spreading information in order to minimize, if not completely avoid, damages and loss of lives in the event of calamities.
The Search for the Happiest Pinoy is a nationwide campaign of Cebuana Lhuillier that aims to promote the values of optimism, resilience, and positive impact in Filipinos amidst different life crises.
Cebuana Lhuillier’s sports advocacy began with its President and CEO Jean Henri Lhuillier’s desire to boost sports development and awareness in the country. A sports enthusiast since his youth, Jean Henri recognizes the role of sports in nurturing life and leadership skills that ultimately contribute to nation-building.
As early as 2002, Cebuana Lhuillier has been supporting sports events and tournaments for softball, tennis, and basketball, among others. From Cebuana’s notable brood of athletes emerged a number of sports luminaries that have made their mark in their respective sports. These include world-class doubles champion Treat Huey, SEA Games softball champion members of the RP Blu Boys and Girls, and Metropolitan Basketball Association legends Cebu Gems.
In pursuit of the advocacy of Cebuana Lhuillier’s President and CEO Jean Henri Lhuillier, whose philosophy is “Always Love Schooling”, which highlights the “Continuous Pursuit of Education”, the Cebuana Lhuillier Foundation, Inc. (CLFI) implemented the Alternative Learning System (ALS), along with three other initiatives that emphasize the value of education — Nationwide Scholarship Program, Spiritual and Social Enhancement Program, and Special Projects on Education.
Established in 2013 with the Department of Education, the ALS provides Academic, Livelihood, Spiritual and Social Education to former out-of-school youth and adults in the elementary and secondary levels.
In pursuit of the P.J. Lhuillier Group of Companies’ corporate value of social responsibility, Jean Henri D. Lhuillier, President and CEO of the P.J. Lhuillier Group of Companies (PJLGC), directed the establishment of the Cebuana Lhuillier Foundation, Inc. (CLFI).
Since its incorporation as a non-profit organization in 2000, it has imparted blessings and empowered the less fortunate by serving as the corporate vehicle of the PJLGC and of the family of Ambassador and Mrs. Philippe J. Lhuillier for giving back to the community.
To claim your insurance, please send an email via [email protected]. Written notice of incident on which claim may be based must be given to Cebuana Lhuillier Insurance Brokers within thirty (30) days after the date of the accident causing such disablement/dismemberment.
Once approved, claim your benefit at any Cebuana Lhuillier branch nationwide.
Please note that some health insurance may be covered by cashless claims. This means, clients may no longer need to pay any amount during hospitalization.
A beneficiary refers to an individual specified in an insurance policy who is eligible to receive the benefits of the policy upon the approval of a claim for death. Immediate family members or, in certain instances, business partners are typically the most frequently designated beneficiaries.
This will depend on your current needs as well as your financial capability. Cebuana Lhuillier offers insurance products for as low as P10 to ensure that every Filipino has access to insurance protection and benefits.
