Star Magic shared a 4-minute video on YouTube, featuring the BINI member spreading true joy and the magic of Christmas by giving back to a fisherfolk community.
“Kanina (Earlier), we went to a grocery and then we bought some food, some supplies. And then, nag-pack na kami (we packed the goods),” she said, adding that it was a very productive and memorable time as they were able to bond with the members of the community through eating, jamming sessions, and giving loot bags.
In addition to helping the community, the BINI member’s advocacy also focuses on showing love and appreciation for nature. After packing goods, she and her team planted mangrove trees and conducted a beach cleanup.
As the video concluded, the BINI singer shared the reason why she has been doing her Aiahdvocacy project.
“Kasi yun nga (Because), for me, start of ‘ber’ months feels like it’s already Christmas,” she began.
“I hope I get to encourage everyone to share that feeling of Christmas to others and pass it forward. If you can share, share, because what’s they say ‘It’s always better to give than to receive,’” she continued.
The BINI main rapper also shared more photos on Instagram to mark another successful outreach, imparting to her followers the lessons she has learned every step of the way.

“For this month, we focused on nature and had a short get-together with some locals and fisherfolk in La Union. And with this, I hope to spread more love and inspiration, reminding everyone that we must take care of our mother earth, its nature, and its people. I’ve learned that we are only here temporarily, so let’s make the most of our time and do as much good as we can while we are still here,” she said.
“Thanks to everyone who donated! May your hearts be blessed! I am grateful for those with big hearts because they contribute to making this world a better place,” she continued. “Lastly, I hope to encourage everyone that if you can give, give. No matter how big or small, it is always better to give than to receive. ❤️”
BINI Aiah launched her advocacy project at the start of the Ber month season, aiming to extend help and support various communities and causes. For the month of September, she donated various goods to a community in Tondo, Manila.
For the month of October, she organized an outreach program where she was able to spend quality time with elderly community members.
