Actress Angel Locsin wishes that she has been able to inspire others to help when in times of need.
Locsin, recently named as the new ambassador of Optical Media Board against piracy, hoped people would be more compassionate especially this Christmas.
“Sa totoo lang, kung makikita mo ‘yung kaligayahan nang natulungan mo, siguro, triple ‘yung kaligayahan na mararamdaman mo kapag ikaw ‘yung taong nakatulong. Mas better na ikaw na ang tumutulong, kaysa mapunta ka roon sa situation nila. Mas marami kang ipagpapasalamat talaga, iba ‘yung walang kapalit ‘di ba? ‘Yung tumulong ka nang walang kapalit,” she said.
She added that she will keep helping others albeit in a low key manner.
“Lahat naman ng plano ko walang nakaka-alam. So ime-maintain ko na lang na ganun lang talaga. Of course, maliit na grupo lang ‘yun minsan apat lang kami, for security reasons rin talaga at wala talaga akong plano na ipaalam talaga,” Loscin said.
Forbes Asia included the Kapamilya actress in the magazine’s 13th annual Heroes of Philanthropy published last December 2.
The magazine cited her charitable works in Mindanao during the Marawi Siege in 2017, and the series of earthquake that rocked the island in 2019 as commendable.
