He said, “Ito pong ginagawa ko ngayon at ng ‘Wowowin’ para sa frontliners kasi sila po ngayon ‘yung nagsisilbi sa atin e, lalong lalo na ‘yung nurses, caregivers at ‘yung mga nagbubuwis ng buhay na mga doctor.”
[“We at Wowowin are doing it for frontliners who are helping us, especially the nurses, caregivers, and doctors who are risking their lives.”]
Willie added, “Hindi ho ganoon kadali ang ginagawa nila para lang ho tulungan ang ating mga kababayan na dumadaan po sa pagsubok na ito, na coronavirus na ito. Sama-sama ho tayo rito, tulong-tulong. Hindi po kami titigil. Ako, hindi ako titigil po ng pagtulong.“
[“What they’re doing is not easy, helping our countrymen go through the coronavirus. We’re all in this together, helping each other. We won’t stop. I won’t stop helping.”]
Aside from personally donating P1 million, he also raised another P1 million and 20,000 face masks from a sponsor, and pledged cough medicine from another.
He is in Puerto Galera as he is following the enhanced community quarantine. Locally, he donated rice grains, noodles, medicine, and coffee for police and soldiers in checkpoints.
