In the heart of Illinois, United States, amidst the bustling life and vibrant culture, stands a figure emblematic of resilience, creativity, and philanthropy—Janice Delima Tentler. Born on October 12, 1982, in Inopacan, Leyte, Philippines, Janice’s journey from her humble beginnings to becoming an influential fashion entrepreneur and philanthropist is nothing short of inspiring. As the CEO and Founder of Alegre De Pilipinas LLC, her vision has transcended geographical boundaries to showcase Filipino talent on a global stage. Yet, it is her profound love for Jesus Christ that imbues her work with unparalleled passion and purpose.

Raised in a Seventh-day Adventist family by Erlinda Israel Delima and Santos Gencianos Delima, Janice’s early life was steeped in the values of faith, hard work, and community service. These principles have guided her through life’s trials and triumphs, shaping her into a multifaceted individual—a model, singer, leader, dancer, counselor, teacher—and above all, a warrior queen who has faced adversity with unwavering strength.

Janice’s academic journey saw her exploring diverse fields—from accounting at the University of San Jose, Recoletos, to music at Mountain View College. Her passion for education did not stop there; she further pursued degrees in physical education at the University of San Carlos Cebu City and hotel management at the University of Southern Philippines. Her quest for knowledge culminated in obtaining a Master’s in Educational Leadership and Management from De La Salle University.

The foundation of Alegre De Pilipinas was born out of Janice’s innate desire to give back to her roots while making a mark on the international fashion scene. Launching during New York Fashion Week (NYFW), this U.S.-based runway production brand has become synonymous with excellence—promoting Filipino designers’ creativity worldwide. However, what sets Janice apart is not just her entrepreneurial spirit but also her commitment to social causes.

From environmental activism recognized through titles like Mrs. Great Lakes Earth USA to advocating for mental health awareness as Mrs. International Universe Philippines 2023—Janice embodies leadership that serves beyond business interests. Her engagement with initiatives like the Bukas Palad Foundation illustrates a deep-seated commitment to uplifting underprivileged communities through education and healthcare.

Janice’s story is punctuated by milestones that speak volumes about her influence—the Diamond Excellence Award Woman of Excellence in October 2023 is one among many accolades celebrating her contributions. Yet it’s not just about personal achievements; it’s about creating pathways for others to dream big—a sentiment echoed by Alegre De Pilipinas’ motto: “The place for everyone who dreams big.”

But perhaps what truly captures the essence of Janice Delima Tentler is how she intertwines spirituality with every aspect of her life—seeing every success as an opportunity to glorify God while embodying Christ’s love through actions that transcend words: “LET MY LIGHT SHINE…” This isn’t merely a declaration but a testament to a living faith that seeks not only personal fulfillment but communal upliftment.

As individuals delve deeper into Janice’s narrative through interviews with family members like James Delima or Jerson Delima or explore perspectives from industry insiders featured on platforms like LA Wire or Voyage New York—they uncover layers to a persona that defies conventional boundaries between business acumen and spiritual devotion.

In this captivating blend lies an invitation—to see beyond mere achievements toward embracing values that drive us towards collective betterment; where fashion becomes not just an expression but an extension of broader societal narratives centered around compassion.

For those intrigued by this extraordinary odyssey—a tale interwoven with threads of courage under adversity—Janice extends an open call for support towards causes close to her heart. Herein lies an opportunity not merely to witness but participate in crafting legacies rooted in empathy because true greatness begins within—propelling us toward endeavors where dreams translate into tangible realities, fostering unity across horizons anew.

Alegre De Pilipinas’ journey represents more than fashion—it symbolizes hope ignited by one woman’s indefatigable spirit driven by love for humanity encompassed within divine grace: “I AM BLESSED…I AM FAVORED…I AM LOVED…” And so are we all—in sharing this light illuminating paths toward brighter futures together.
