Village Pipol Magazine marked its remarkable 18th anniversary last October 15 at The Vibe Arcovia, celebrating a milestone of growth, gratitude, and purpose.
With the theme “Powered by Roots, Thriving into the Future,” the event gathered over a hundred brands, partners, and friends of the magazine for a night that honored legacy and looked forward to continued innovation. The celebration symbolized more than just longevity, it was a coming-of-age moment, a reflection on the publication’s journey of building community and staying true to its roots while embracing the evolving media landscape.
At the heart of this milestone stood Anna Magkawas, entrepreneur and cover personality of Village Pipol’s 18th anniversary issue. Her story of perseverance, humility, and success perfectly embodied the essence of this year’s theme.
Anna Magkawas: A Woman Grounded in Purpose
As the Country Manager of Luxe Beauty and Wellness Group, Anna Magkawas has become an inspiring figure for many aspiring entrepreneurs. Her journey mirrors the magazine’s own story, built on hard work, authenticity, and meaningful relationships.
“Success means nothing if you forget the people who were with you from the very beginning. Always stay rooted, remain humble, and never think too highly of yourself,” she shared.
Her message resonated deeply with the evening’s theme. Just as Village Pipol has flourished through the support of its readers, collaborators, and creative partners, Anna’s success reflects the same principle: that no one thrives alone, it takes a village to build a lasting legacy.
Village Pipol’s Sales and Marketing Head, Regino Rubi, shared why Anna was the ideal choice for this milestone cover.
“She truly deserves to be the main cover. Even now that she’s at the peak of her success, we still see her working with the same people, finding time for her family, and always putting her Luxers at the heart of her business,” Rubi said.
Gilded Origins: A Night to Remember
The 18th anniversary celebration took on the concept of “Gilded Origins,” where guests dressed in elegant shades of black, silver, and gold, a visual representation of strength, triumph, and timeless style.
The night was filled with laughter, heartfelt stories, and moments of appreciation. It was not only a look back at the magazine’s achievements but also a toast to the exciting possibilities ahead.
Thriving Into the Future
Eighteen years since its founding, Village Pipol Magazine continues to champion authenticity and creativity. The publication remains dedicated to sharing inspiring stories of individuals who rise by staying true to their values and origins.
Anna Magkawas’ feature serves as a reflection of the magazine’s core belief—that success rooted in humility and collaboration will always stand the test of time. Her story captures the same spirit that drives Village Pipol: built by community, strengthened by connection, and guided by purpose.
As Village Pipol steps into a new chapter, it carries a clear message: success is never achieved alone. It is shared, nurtured, and celebrated, just as it has been for the past 18 years and will continue to be for generations to come.
