Former Race Car Champ Contributes to Key Areas as Pandemic Takes a Toll in Metro Manila

It has been more than a month now since the Enhanced Community Quarantine was put into place in the Metro. During this period, most businesses are closed and a lot of the population are left with no income. Every person left without a job is a family waiting to be fed. Despite that, it didn’t stop people from helping their communities and inspiring us to do the same. That’s exactly what Arbie Jacinto did.

A media agency executive and a former racing champion, Arbie delivered a truckload of rice to the cities of San Juan, Valenzuela, and the municipality of Cainta by Mr. Arbie Jacinto. 

Aside from that, he has also donated medical supplies and PPE to our frontliners, and has been donating every week since the start of the ECQ. Arbie understands the importance of working together for the common good and believes that if every Filipino puts their hands on deck, we will be able to surpass this crisis. 

“I normally race to finish first but this time, I hope we all finish strong and heal as one.”
