Philippines OnlyFans Model Reportedly Raises Money To Build School and Names It After Her Late Dad
Maeurn Smiles bought land in Cebu in 2024 and opened a smaller learning centre, but the planned larger school remains unfinished

A Philippines OnlyFans model known online as Maeurn Smiles is using her earnings to build a school in Cebu on land she bought in 2024 and has opened a smaller learning centre there in 2025.
The creator paid 1.75 million pesos for the land in the Naga area, according to TMZ. She has said she originally planned to donate the property so the government could build a school on it.
That plan changed after she learned she could not name the government-built school after her late father, so she decided to take responsibility for the construction herself.
The larger school has not yet been completed. A smaller learning centre is already operating on the property, where local children can participate in science experiments, cooking activities and other hands-on lessons.
Mothership reported that the planned school could serve around 300 children once completed. TMZ first reported on the project on 6 August 2026, after speaking with Maeurn about her plans, as she said she wanted to teach as a young girl but could not afford college.
Her initiative has attracted attention because the project connects Maeurn's career as an OnlyFans creator with an earlier ambition to work in education, as her decision also gives the project a personal connection to her late father.
From Teaching English To Building a School
Before starting her OnlyFans page, Maeurn said she worked as an English teacher for Chinese students. According to her account, her family could not afford to send her to college. That meant she did not pursue the teaching degree she had hoped to obtain.
Her later career on OnlyFans provided the income she says enabled her to pursue the education project. TMZ reported that she bought the land in 2024 for 1.75 million pesos.
The land is in Naga, where Maeurn plans to establish the school. Her own public post also identifies the planned institution as the Edmundo Tolentino Memorial National High School.
TMZ reported that the larger school, as planned, had not been completed by August this year, while the smaller learning centre had already opened in 2025.
The reported capacity of about 300 children refers to the planned larger school, not the existing learning centre.
Maeurn's decision to retain control of the project followed her reported concern about the school's name. TMZ said she had initially intended to donate the land and allow the government to build the school.
Why the Cebu School Project Is Drawing Attention
Social media has reacted to her initiative, with reactions ranging from praise for the educational project to criticism of Maeurn's OnlyFans career. Reddit discussions include both supportive comments and scepticism about her motives.
The contrast between Maeurn's adult-content career and her plans for children's education has become central to the online discussion. The school project therefore carries a personal and social dimension beyond building a new school.
She has not yet finalised arrangements for staff, maintenance, and other long-term operating costs for the larger institution, and those details matter because completing a school building is only one part of running an educational institution.
The project's eventual status and structure will become clearer if construction progresses and further information is made public.
