The actress and mom of eight was among the 48 individuals who graduated and became official reservists at the ceremony held on Tuesday.
Also present at the event was Sen. Robin Padilla, reserve lieutenant colonel in the Philippine Army, who commended the new reservists and urged them to be a “symbol to influence the youth to be part of the reservist program.”
Montenegro works at Padilla’s office as a political affairs officer.
“I just learned that there are no limits when you want to serve [and] you have the heart to serve,” Montenegro told the press.
“I encourage everyone to do their part kasi this is the moment where we need talaga each other’s strength, each other’s power together na magsama-sama para sa ating bayan,” she added.
