A lot of users lauded Heart, echoing the sentiment that one does not have to be hold a post to help. A certain @rockybasea0662 even commented that “Helping is from the HEART, not from any position.”
True to this, the actress, who is the wife of former senator and incumbent Sorsogon governor Francis “Chiz” Escudero, has been trying to come up with ways to extend help to several of the affected especially this pandemic.
She just launched the campaign Big Heart PH, which is now a more detailed and organized version of the giveaway she did earlier. She said that the said campaign aims to “provide students the proper tools they need so they do not stop learning and educating themselves despite the current pandemic situation of our country.”
Heart has also been using her social media influence to help out some of those who have reached out to her by paying for their hospital bills. Aside from helping Sorsoganons, she is also busy aiding frontline workers with the help of her endorsements, by donating vitamins, personal protective equipment (PPEs), and face shields.
