The Search for TAYO Awards is the premier award giving body in the country that recognizes youth groups and organizations. It is the biggest platform to showcase young Filipinos’ dynamism and contribution in community development since 2002.

- Health, Well-Being, and Human Development; and

DepEd Advisory calls on groups and organizations to apply with as many entries as they can, all for free. Judging is based on the submitted project entry, with the following areas for criteria:
- Impact of the Project Entry on Stakeholders,
