01:25Good morning!
01:26It's tiring to arrange these toys and gifts that we're giving to the GMA Foundation
01:33For the kids who are fasting, it's Christmas
01:36You know what sis, it feels so good when you're able to share your blessings to other people
01:41Why? It's noisy
01:43Especially to the kids this Christmas
01:45But it's their own way
01:47Direk Nga is still going to Malate
01:50She's giving out balls and french fries on the 16th
01:55I wish I could join that
01:57French fries and hamburgers for the street children
01:59Join us there, Direk
02:01There are different kinds of giving
02:03Some kids are adapting to Christmas
02:05Because they say it's good for the kids who don't have parents to have parents
02:10Even if it's temporary
02:11Sometimes it ends and they're already adapting
02:14Correct
02:15That's why today our co-workers in the industry
02:18We'll be able to talk about the different kinds of giving that they're doing
02:24When Christmas comes
02:26Even the joy of giving
02:30So this morning we encouraged you to talk to us
02:33And know the joy of giving
02:36Let's always, always give love on Christmas day

02:54People making lists
02:58Buying special gifts
03:01Taking time to be one to one in all
03:08It's the time of year
03:12When good friends are near
03:15And you wish you could give more
03:19Than just presents from the store
03:22Why don't you give love on Christmas day
03:31Oh, even a man who has everything
03:35Would be so happy if you would pray
03:38Give love on Christmas day
03:44No greater gift is there than love
03:56People you don't know
04:00Smiling on hello
04:03Everywhere there's an air of Christmas joy
04:09It's that once a year
04:13When the world stands still
04:17And you'd like to find a way
04:20To show the things that words can't say
04:24Why don't you give love on Christmas day
04:32Oh the man on the street
04:33And the couple upstairs
04:36All needs to know
04:37There's someone who cares
04:40Give love on Christmas day
04:45No greater gift is there than love
04:51But the world needs your love
04:54Yes the world needs your love

05:20No greater gift is there than love
05:25But the world needs your love
05:28Yes the world needs your love
05:32Give love, oh give love on Christmas day
05:39Applause
05:41The gift of Christmas continues
05:43So join us in one hour here at SIS
05:47Applause
05:49We are sisters
05:51We are sisters
05:53Always be
05:54We are sisters
05:56We are sisters
05:58Applause
06:00Some people don't give easily
06:02Others don't give easily
06:04But there are people who know that this is what they should do
06:08How did they discover that they need to do this?
06:12And what are their ways of giving?
06:14We will tell you who are our guests
06:17And we will ask them today
06:19She donates to charitable institutions for kids every Christmas
06:24And on special occasions
06:25Like her husband's wedding
06:27We are here with Jessa Saragosa
06:30Applause
06:32Welcome back
06:33Thank you
06:34She donated
06:36She donated what she won in a game show
06:40In her church
06:42Brahma Kumaris Meditation Center
06:44Dexter Doria
06:46Hi
06:48She has been a volunteer at White Cross Children's Home for 6 years
06:52Ms. Cristina Pexon
06:54Hello
06:55And she is the president of Unang Hakbang Foundation
07:00She is also the president of Helping Foundation
07:03And she is also the president of Munting Paraiso Foundation
07:06Ricky Reyes
07:08Good morning
07:09I'm not the president
07:10I'm just here with you
07:12You're just here with us
07:13Yeah, I'm still heading the program
07:15That's a good thing
07:19This is our next guest
07:21He is the advertising officer of Citizens' Crime Watch
07:26Julio Diaz
07:28He is from the Philippines
07:30What?
07:31He is from the Philippines
07:33He is a defender of the society and the people
07:36He is a defender of the society and the people
07:39That's wrong
07:41Not even close
07:45He is a defender of the society and the people
07:53He is the president of Visayas Mindanao Incorporated of California
07:58Gloria Sevilla
08:00Good morning
08:01Good morning everybody
08:03What inspired you to volunteer, to help, to give?
08:10For me, I'm finding my happiness
08:13Because when you're famous, when you have money, and you can afford to live
08:19Money will never make you happy
08:22The happiness that you want to see
08:26At the end of the day, even at 7 o'clock in the evening, you can sleep because you're happy
08:31So, happiness that is not empty
08:34Yes, the full feeling
08:36It's not an investment in this world, but your investment to eternity
08:42Yes, because sometimes there are people who give, but they have a purpose
08:48Their purpose is to return to their tenfold
08:50But you should learn how to give back to the society
08:54Because everything in this world is given to us by our society
08:57So, you should be the one to give, not the one to take from the society
09:01For me, it happened to me that I never thought I would be a newscaster
09:04Ever since I was a child, I dreamed of being this or that
09:07And then I became a newscaster
09:09And then I realized that I'm so lucky to be where I am now
09:14And I wanted to give back
09:16There are so many other people who have so little
09:19And sometimes, you complain about little things
09:23You didn't get this thing, you didn't get that
09:25And then you think about it, there are so many who don't have
09:28So, it was time to give back something to them
09:31Give back, that's right
09:35Me too
09:38Actually, I don't give back
09:42I've always wanted to give, except that I didn't have anything to give
09:46And then there was a chance for me to give on a big time
09:49I mean, for me, that's big time
09:51And I seized on that opportunity
09:54And I told God, I'm gonna give you half of my winnings
09:59And He made me win
10:01I believe it was the act of even just wanting to give
10:05That made me win that night
10:07It wasn't my talent or my intelligence or anything
10:10It was because God wanted me to win
10:13Because for the first time, I wanted to give to Him
10:18Actually, it doesn't matter how much you give
10:21It doesn't matter how much you give
10:24It's not even actually money, it's time
10:27It's an effort
10:29It's the intention
10:31It's the intention
10:33Explain it to us
10:35Why did you include that group?
10:38What is it?
10:39Explain it to us, please
10:41For us, it's like a crime watch
10:45But somehow, in our service, aside from the crime watch
10:51We also have other services
10:55Like the ones that were burned
11:00You said it's a service
11:02Yes, it's just a help
11:04Aside from that, we also have another NGO
11:08The Bright Life for Life Society
11:10This is sponsored by the Fujisawa Japan Filipino Community Foundation
11:17We also help
11:19We have medical missions
11:21That's great
11:22Why did you choose to be in that group?
11:27Before, even though I haven't been to the States
11:32I was in the Philippines
11:34I was very active with the Daughters of St. Paul
11:37In Missionary
11:38In TAFT
11:39Every now and then, we give
11:42But I don't publicize
11:44Of course
11:45If you want to give
11:46You give
11:47You just give
11:48And then when my husband was appointed consul and consul general in San Francisco
11:52I was very active with the communities
11:55Like, I was the president of Mindanao Inc.
12:00We gave to a remote town in Agusan
12:04We gave television, video, and educational tapes
12:08For the students
12:09For education
12:10Yes, for education
12:11And one also in Labason
12:13In the north
12:14We gave one also
12:16The set for the students
12:18And we gave money to our Pink Sisters in Cebu
12:23Pink Sisters
12:24Jessa, she's not involved with any particular organization
12:28She's like
12:30On her own
12:31On her own
12:32We don't give to any particular organization
12:35So if we can discover
12:39Something new
12:40Something new or we can give
12:42We'll contact Jessa
12:44Especially to the kids
12:46Jelly, my advice is
12:48To all the people who are helping
12:50The more they propagate
12:52That they're helping
12:53Land it in the papers
12:54Land it in television
12:55Because
12:56So they'll know
12:57No, I still believe that there's a lot of good-meaning people
12:59Who really wanted to help
13:01But the point is
13:02They don't know who will help
13:04Where will they help
13:05What do they want to help
13:06Plus, if something happens to you
13:08They know that the money they're helping
13:10Really helps the family
13:11It reaches
13:12It reaches
13:13It's important
13:14Because sometimes we have that notion
13:15Maybe something happened
13:16I helped but it didn't reach
13:17That's true
13:18Something like that
13:19So I believe
13:20There's a lot of people who want to help
13:21That's true
13:22They're just afraid
13:23Maybe along the way
13:24Because
13:25Something will be lost
13:26It won't reach
13:27But if they know
13:28That it really reaches
13:29They'll volunteer
13:30And they'll always help
13:31Because others will bring
13:32Like
13:33In the States
13:34Let's talk about the States
13:35When I went to Pinatubo
13:37My husband
13:38He got donations there
13:40Tents
13:41Water
13:42Clothes
13:43They're really nice
13:44When we got here
13:45It didn't reach
13:46Like the airport in Baguio
13:48Two 40-footers
13:49The tents are new
13:51They're nice
13:52The clothes
13:53When we got here
13:54It didn't reach
13:55The blankets are nice
13:56It didn't reach Baguio
13:57What reached them
13:58Is the made in the Philippines
14:00The tents
14:02Being resold
14:04Yes
14:05That's why others are bringing
14:06Oh my goodness
14:07That is the very reason
14:08That is the very reason
14:09Most of all the embassies
14:10The international embassies
14:12They give to NGOs and foundations
14:14Rather than
14:15Because they're sure
14:16They're sure
14:17Yes, that's right
14:18So
14:19When heading a foundation
14:21How long does it take?
14:22Because there are people
14:23Who want to put up a tent
14:24I think it's the willingness
14:25In you
14:26That you really wanted to do it
14:27And the time
14:28There's a lot of time involved
14:29Of course
14:30Because you really want to
14:31It's so easy
14:32Really?
14:33Just focus
14:34What do you want to help?
14:35What sector?
14:36Youth?
14:37Unwed mothers?
14:38District children?
14:39Orphans?
14:40You just need to focus
14:42Okay
14:43You need to have a target
14:44That's right
14:45So it's not cluttered
14:46It's not messy
14:47What you want to help
14:48When we come back
14:49What's it like
14:50To give back
14:51To their blessings
14:52Other than the taste
14:53That they feel
14:54In giving
14:55They will tell us more
14:56About it
14:57When we return
14:58Thank you
14:59Thank you
15:00Thank you
15:01Thank you
15:02Thank you
15:03Thank you
15:04Thank you
15:05Thank you
15:06Thank you
15:07Thank you
15:08Thank you
15:09Thank you
15:10Thank you
15:11Thank you
15:12Thank you
15:13Thank you
15:15You will return this to yourself
15:16In a different way
15:17What are the memorable thoughts
15:18That they heard
15:19From their gift
15:21Who did they even get in touch
15:22With
15:23Due to their work
15:25We know now
15:26The merit
15:27They gave
15:28Are tremendous
15:29Of course
15:30You will tell us
15:31You will involve us
15:32With the stories
15:33Of what it really meant
15:35That you got
15:36To work in
15:37Projects like this
15:40Actually
15:41I think
15:42Let's not think
15:43Don't think that if you do good, God will return it to you.
15:47Don't think that because the fact that you are happy on what you're doing is enough already.
15:53Because happiness is rare.
15:56It's not easy to find the happiness of your heart and the happiness of your soul.
16:01If you're happy with what you're doing, that's it. That's it.
16:04Don't wait for an alternative because you're doing this for Him.
16:08The Lord said,
16:10What you do in the less fortunate brothers of mine, you have done it under my name.
16:14I always say, when we go to church and worship, there's only one beautiful song.
16:18No one lives alone.
16:21No one dies alone.
16:24We all have a responsibility on our side.
16:26So, let's do your sin.
16:28Exactly.
16:29Isn't it?
16:30Exactly.
16:31And if you're going to give, I hope there's no self-serving purpose.
16:33That's right.
16:35I got involved particularly with children.
16:37Because as an adult, it happens that there are times when you have a lot of problems and you don't know what to do.
16:43But you look back on happy times in your life to give you strength.
16:46And I had a happy childhood.
16:48So for me, when I feel bad and I remember, well, at least I was blessed, my parents were there for me, I was happy.
16:54So, I wanted to give back to children too.
16:57I felt that if you could just create a few happy moments for their childhood, for their memories,
17:02then you've done something to help them.
17:04I'll remember that for the rest of my life.
17:06You were talking about cancer patients.
17:09Actually, it wasn't just on Christmas day that I got involved in helping.
17:16Like the three cancer patients, the kids,
17:22that I visited either in the hospital or we met in their house.
17:29One of them passed away.
17:34I think she was only nine years old.
17:37She was a girl.
17:39Her last wish was to see me in person.
17:43And I was going to sing her my song, Bakit Pa.
17:47So, it was really touching because when I found out that the doctors at East Avenue Hospital called me,
17:53I didn't hesitate.
17:55I went to the kid.
17:58They say, many are cold, but few are chosen.
18:01To be given a role to do this is something very, very important.
18:05Choose Jessica, choose Christine, it's something else.
18:08It's food for the soul.
18:09That's right.
18:10It's food for the soul.
18:11And it's nice for me.
18:13I was a nursery school teacher for a while with the kids.
18:16They didn't know who I was.
18:17That's why you're fond of kids.
18:20Sometimes at school, they would tell me,
18:23I saw you last night on TV.
18:25What were you doing there?
18:27That's not me, that's my brother.
18:31Because sometimes you feel like on TV,
18:34why are they with you?
18:36Are they with you because they're really your friends or because of who you are on TV?
18:39But these people, they don't really care.
18:41They just want to be with you.
18:44That's why they call me Jessica.
18:47You're talking.
18:48Yes, thank you.
18:49Because you're really good at listening.
18:52I was telling Christine earlier,
18:54Christine's direction is right,
18:56because the child is still tomorrow.
18:59They are our hope.
19:01They will be leaders in the future.
19:02That's right.
19:03And even how good we are, our lifetime is not even enough.
19:06Because there will be children and children that will be born.
19:09So we should contaminate the kids
19:11so that they will do what we are doing.
19:13Because our life is not enough.
19:16Even if we do good, it's not enough.
19:18That's great.
19:20For me, in one instance,
19:22I received a letter.
19:25I received a letter from the sisters in Cebu.
19:30Because we were donating money.
19:33I received a letter and I cried.
19:35She said, the money came in time.
19:38They used to feed the children in Cebu City.
19:40They didn't have money to buy.
19:42It came in time.
19:43The dollars came in time.
19:44And she gave me a medal.
19:47She said, God bless you.
19:49It's so touching.
19:50You know, it's also important that you choose your beneficiaries.
19:53Not all of them.
19:55Because there are also a lot of people who take advantage.
19:58They are in the middle.
19:59So you should really choose those people who need you most.
20:02When they need you, you are there.
20:04For example, proper help on proper time.
20:07Everything should be done on proper timing.
20:09Julio.
20:10At last.
20:11Julio, come here.
20:13You know, that's very important.
20:16Safety.
20:17Safety.
20:18For me, aside from the fact that I'm giving a service now.
20:23At this point in time, I'm giving a service.
20:26But during the time that I was able to make a good income.
20:29Those days, on my own, I was really less fortunate.
20:34The children, I was really giving school to some people.
20:38I think I should give it.
20:40That was on my own.
20:41That was my personal.
20:42But those were the days.
20:44Now?
20:45Now.
20:46It's a tradition.
20:47It's a tradition.
20:48It's more important.
20:49That's very important.
20:50The time.
20:52Like I said, it's not the amount.
20:54It's not how much you will give.
20:56But your time.
20:57Just to sit down with them even for 10 minutes or 5 minutes.
20:59You give time and talk to them.
21:01That means a lot.
21:02And Ricky, we're not just talking to an institution that has a lot of help.
21:07Yes.
21:08Just like what you said earlier.
21:09Choose the right people.
21:10Because there are a lot of rich institutions.
21:12Yes, that's true.
21:13There are a lot of institutions that really need it.
21:15That really need it.
21:19Now, we're with Sister Teresita Montañano,
21:22Administrator of White Cross Children's Home,
21:24where Christina is a volunteer.
21:26She's also with Jason and Russell,
21:28two of the kids in the White Cross.
21:32This is Jason and Russell.
21:35This is Jason.
21:36This is Jason.
21:37This is Russell.
21:38How old are you, Jason?
21:40I'm Russell.
21:41You're Russell.
21:43You're also 7 years old?
21:44Yes.
21:45Hello, Sister.
21:46Hello.
21:47Good morning.
21:49What is your wish for this Christmas?
21:55A lot.
21:56You want a lot.
21:58You also want a lot.
22:02This is for you.
22:03Granted!
22:08Merry Christmas.
22:11Merry Christmas.
22:13Thank you for it.
22:14Merry Christmas.
22:16Sister, Christina's been with you 6 years.
22:19Yes.
22:21What can you say?
22:22She has been our partner in making White Cross develop and improve.
22:28You can see now the improvement of White Cross.
22:31It's really different since Christina arrived in our institution.
22:35Yes.
22:37Wow.
22:40Sister, have you encountered or met people like Christina who are willing to help, willing to volunteer?
22:48Actually, through her.
22:50A lot of people are coming to us.
22:53Contamination.
22:54But before that.
22:55It's like an example.
22:56Yes.
22:57It's like what she said.
22:58She knows how to contaminate other people.
23:02To our viewers, you will also be contaminated.
23:08I think that's very important.
23:09Contaminating people for the good.
23:12Actually, you will instill their feelings.
23:14For them.
23:15Oh, that's White Cross.
23:16That's right.
23:17To those who need it.
23:19They will know what foundations and organizations need help.
23:25And how they can help.
23:26And don't just do it every Christmas.
23:28Yes.
23:29Because it happens all year round.
23:30But the rest of the day, you forget.
23:32And if you find a foundation that you work with them well,
23:35I hope you do it again and again.
23:37Not that you go there once and then you forget about it.
23:39They need help all year round, not just Christmas.
23:42It's got to be a continuing program all the time.
23:45Who will they contact?
23:47Sister Christina.
23:48Yes.
23:49White Cross and Sister Tere.
23:50You can call us.
23:51Our number is 724-2145.
23:55Sometimes, a lot of people think that not everybody is blessed with extra to give.
24:02Because a lot of people say,
24:03I don't think I can give this kind of help.
24:06What other ways, small or big, can you do that?
24:11Not a lot can be given with regards to goods or money.
24:18For us, it's about volunteering.
24:21Just like other mothers,
24:23they have an organization called Yakap ng Ina.
24:26Yakap ng Ina.
24:27So, they are the ones who hug and talk to the children.
24:31So, that's the most important thing.
24:34To give love to the children.
24:37Like what we said earlier,
24:38it's not the amount of money, it's not the money per se,
24:41it's not the goods that you bring,
24:42but the time that you will spare.
24:44Instead of being at home, you will fight with your husband,
24:46you will shout for help,
24:48you will ask him to leave the house,
24:50go to White Cross, go elsewhere,
24:51give caregiving.
24:54Caregiving!
24:56You will be more beautiful, right?
24:57Instead of being at home, you will fight with your husband.
24:59At the end of the day, if you are in need, you know?
25:01Especially the children,
25:03they are the ones who need attention, right?
25:07Yes.
25:08So, it's very important.
25:09When I became a nursery school teacher,
25:12actually, I was just a helper.
25:13I didn't have money to give.
25:15But at that time, I didn't have a job.
25:16So, I said, instead of being at home,
25:18I will just go out.
25:19True.
25:20These two are my students.
25:22They are just taking their time.
25:23They really appreciate it.
25:25In other words, making your time meaningful.
25:28We will continue to give
25:30when Sis returns.
25:46There are different ways.
25:47As long as we like it,
25:48we will continue to give.
25:50And there are other ways
25:51of helping people this Christmas.
25:53Our guests will share that today.
25:56So, Sis, listen to their tips.
26:00Of course, the needs of each institution are different.
26:03Like you said, aside from...
26:05Aside from food or toys.
26:08Of course, it's different.
26:10What else can we give?
26:12Aside from food,
26:15toys and medicine.
26:17Vitamins.
26:19I feel that...
26:21I'm a very neglected person
26:25when it comes to reading books.
26:26I feel that every household has books.
26:29And people believe that
26:31I want to collect books.
26:32But what do they do with these books anyway?
26:34They gather dust.
26:35They don't go back and read them again.
26:37Why don't you share it with the poor?
26:39Especially the poor people who feel that
26:42it's hard for us.
26:43We don't read because we're stupid.
26:52Instead of watching crime movies,
26:54they read comics.
26:55Well, I don't mean small comics
26:57and tabloids.
26:59But what can they really learn from that?
27:02Read a book.
27:04Uplift your intellectual capacity.
27:07Don't think that you're stupid.
27:11It's a whole new world for them.
27:12But of course, we know that books are very expensive.
27:15So we can share our books
27:17that are gathering dust in our house.
27:19Let's give them books.
27:20In short, remove the gathering dust in the house.
27:23Yes.
27:24Clean the house.
27:25Because you won't be able to read the book.
27:26You won't be able to read it again.
27:27Like every house.
27:28How many old toys are there in a house
27:31that children don't play with anymore?
27:33Then let other children play with it
27:35because not all children play with it.
27:37Actually, bring your children to the orphanage
27:39so that they can appreciate it.
27:41They will learn the value.
27:44I always appeal to all my friends,
27:47all the people I give to,
27:49I always appeal for dextrose.
27:51Because the Cancer Institute...
27:52Me?
27:53Dextrose.
27:54Because the Cancer Institute of PGH,
27:56I adopted that for the last four years.
27:58And there are a lot of people who die
28:00because they don't have money to buy dextrose.
28:02And dextrose is only less than 100 pesos.
28:05And dextrose is life-saving.
28:07It prolongs a person's life.
28:10Others don't have butterflies.
28:12They don't have money to buy dextrose.
28:15So, it's not just children.
28:17Medical supplies are also important.
28:19Medical supplies.
28:20There are also the elderly
28:21who don't have anything to give to them.
28:23Those who are left behind.
28:24There are a lot.
28:25The personal touch, the love,
28:27cannot be replaced by the amount of money.
28:29Yes.
28:30There is no amount of money.
28:33And Ricky is right.
28:34If you can't give anything,
28:36give your time for them.
28:37Yes.
28:38That's true.
28:39And they will never turn you away.
28:40They will never turn you away
28:43if you're just going to come and spend time with them.
28:45They'll be appreciated.
28:46Someone I know here in the Home for the Aged,
28:49for so many years,
28:50she wasn't brought here by her children.
28:52She needed something.
28:54Love.
28:55And I talked to her.
28:56She was crying.
28:57I was also crying.
28:58So, it's like they really need attention.
29:02Like you said, love.
29:05You know, like you know,
29:06I adopted a group called
29:07the Philippine United Senior Citizen Association.
29:09This is the PUSCA.
29:10This is an organization of all senior citizens
29:13in the whole Philippines.
29:14I always give them Christmas parties.
29:16I gather more than thousands of grandpas and grandmas.
29:19And all of them,
29:20they feel like they're excess baggage
29:22in their children's homes.
29:24They don't pay attention.
29:25Well, maybe we shouldn't look at that point.
29:29On that point,
29:30I always say to the elders,
29:31you always have a purpose.
29:33Talk to your grandchildren.
29:34Because sometimes,
29:35they want to fill your space.
29:36That's right.
29:37Teach the values,
29:38our old values.
29:40Because their parents are already working.
29:42So, they don't teach their children anymore.
29:44Rather than to leave them to the maids,
29:45teach them how to pray,
29:47how to sit.
29:48All those things.
29:49The old people can do a lot of things.
29:52I suggest.
29:54Talking about the old people,
29:57like in my case,
29:58my grandmother,
29:59she's already bedridden.
30:01So, you know,
30:03since she can't walk,
30:05she can't go anywhere.
30:08The attention,
30:09the way you talk to her,
30:10the way you talk to her,
30:11the way you make her laugh,
30:12those are very important things.
30:14That's important.
30:15That's what Ding Dong does to her.
30:16That's why Ding Dong loves her so much.
30:18Ding Dong loves her so much.
30:19She's Ding Dong.
30:20She's Ding Dong.
30:21It's the same, vice versa.
30:22We will never know where we're heading
30:24unless we know our roots,
30:25where we came from.
30:28You say when you're on TV,
30:30you're only as good as your last performance.
30:32But if you think about it,
30:33not only on TV,
30:34you're only as good as your last day.
30:36So you make sure that when you go to sleep at night,
30:38you did something good.
30:40You have imparted something beautiful
30:42to the televiewers.
30:43It's like, you're not just on television,
30:45you're on and on,
30:46but what you said,
30:47it doesn't matter.
30:48We should always leave it to the viewers
30:50that something that they will remember you by.
30:52I will do that too.
30:54You contaminate people.
30:55Actually, that is our role.
30:58Contamination.
30:59We're on TV,
31:00it's a very powerful tool.
31:01If used badly,
31:03a lot of people will be harmed
31:05because we contaminate people.
31:06But if used for the betterment of everybody,
31:09we can also contaminate people.
31:11That's true.
31:12We say,
31:13changing other people's lives,
31:15it's such a big task.
31:16But they don't realize
31:18that change should start with yourself,
31:20with your heart.
31:21When your heart changes,
31:23you'll never know.
31:24You've done so much already.
31:25You don't know,
31:26you've done so much already.
31:27Julio, I want to ask you,
31:28you said earlier that you help
31:30those who are in trouble,
31:32when someone is on fire,
31:33or when there's a problem,
31:35like in Binagyo,
31:36what kind of help do you do?
31:39Like, in my case,
31:42I'm on the advertising side,
31:45I know people in other companies,
31:50we ask for their products.
31:54Their products?
31:55Yes.
31:56Then, friends,
31:57I want to talk to GK Oda,
32:00about giving clothes
32:02to our customers in Tondo.
32:05So, he's the one calling,
32:09looking for people to help.
32:13So, even if you don't give it yourself,
32:15you can call,
32:17your friends,
32:19it's still hours, right?
32:20Yes.
32:21And Julio, what's the other one?
32:22Is it Talima?
32:23That's the one I mentioned.
32:24The other one I mentioned is
32:26Bright Life for Life Society.
32:30We did this 5 years ago.
32:34When I usually go to Japan,
32:36I have a group in Lihan,
32:38Fujisawa community,
32:40Filipino community.
32:41What they do is,
32:42they socialize,
32:43they give us proceeds.
32:46Then at one point,
32:48we went to White Cross.
32:50You really distribute?
32:52We distribute goods.
32:54Necessities?
32:55Yes, necessities.
32:57It's hard to give.
33:00Sometimes, you don't know
33:02what to give,
33:03where it will go.
33:05For example, street children,
33:07you don't know,
33:08you can't give them money.
33:10We don't know where the money will go.
33:13If they eat,
33:14maybe it won't be enough.
33:16Especially those who are
33:18in Home for the Aged.
33:19We need to know their needs first.
33:23When we return,
33:24that's what we will ask.
33:25And we will know.
33:41We do different activities
33:43during Christmas.
33:45What are their ongoing fundraising
33:48or benefit activities this Christmas?
33:51For me, Jelly,
33:53I started my Christmas early.
33:56Since December 7,
33:58I gathered all the orphans
34:00in Metro Manila.
34:02There are more than 800 children.
34:04I gave them gifts,
34:06food,
34:07and the evening rides
34:08of the Fiesta Carnival.
34:09I would like to say
34:10thank you to Fiesta Carnival.
34:11The enjoyment of the children
34:13who can afford it,
34:14I gave it to the orphans
34:16in the different orphanages.
34:17I also spent Christmas
34:19with the senior citizens
34:20in Boys Town.
34:22And in the afternoon of the 13th,
34:24I spent Christmas
34:25with all the senior citizens.
34:26I gave them gifts,
34:27food,
34:28and the enjoyment
34:29of the older people.
34:30They have very simple
34:31enjoyment in life.
34:33And on the 13th,
34:34I spent Christmas
34:35in PGX Cancer Institute.
34:36That's very close to my heart.
34:40The children who have cancer,
34:42I'd like to spend Christmas
34:43with them,
34:44give them gifts.
34:45The fact that you go there
34:46for one morning
34:47and people forget
34:48they're all dying,
34:49maybe that's a big gift
34:50from God
34:51to give them joy.
34:53Even if it's just a little joy,
34:54even if it's just for a moment.
34:55That's right.
34:56I do all of that earlier
34:57because on Christmas time,
34:58I would like to spend
34:59with my family.
35:00Your family.
35:01Maybe we're doing
35:02so many things for other people
35:03and we forget our family.
35:04But we forget our family.
35:05We don't know what to do.
35:06That's right.
35:07Which is the true essence
35:08of Christmas
35:09is that our Lord
35:10really gave birth to us
35:11and we share that
35:12with our family.
35:13I have a special assignment
35:14that Sister Tere gave me.
35:16Because our problem
35:17in the orphanage,
35:18I've been there
35:19six years,
35:20the cribs that I saw
35:21when I was there
35:22six years ago,
35:23they're still there.
35:24So they're a little
35:25dilapidated.
35:26Okay.
35:27And our problem
35:28recently,
35:29the kids are still sleeping
35:31and they fall,
35:32and their heads
35:33explode in the morning.
35:34Oh my God.
35:35It was a problem.
35:36So Sister Tere asked me,
35:37I'm still collecting donations,
35:38it's still not enough,
35:39to put together
35:4020 new cribs.
35:41Someone donated one
35:42and people are giving money.
35:44Any amount,
35:45even if it's 50 pesos,
35:46even if it's 100 pesos,
35:47anything will really
35:48be appreciated.
35:49How about this, Christine?
35:50Let's appeal to the televiewers.
35:51Yes, yes.
35:52Bring the wood
35:53from their house
35:54to White Cross
35:55and we'll get a carpenter
35:56to fix them, right?
35:58And together,
35:59they need towels,
36:01face towels,
36:02because there are
36:03a hundred children
36:04who are touching
36:05their own towels.
36:06They're like rabbits.
36:07So some of them
36:08would have their own.
36:09So Ian,
36:10if there's anyone
36:11who would like to help us,
36:12you can call us again.
36:13Our number is
36:14724-2145
36:15and we're at
36:16276 Santolan Road,
36:19in San Juan.
36:20It's not far, right?
36:21Yes, it's not far.
36:22Every Christmas,
36:23you're doing something, right?
36:25So what's your plan
36:26for this Christmas, Jessica?
36:27Actually,
36:28Ding Dong and I
36:29have already prepared
36:30what we're going to give.
36:31It's already in the box.
36:32The clothes that we have
36:33left over.
36:34Of course,
36:35we're the ones, right?
36:36Once a month, right?
36:38Once a month,
36:39you can't wear it anymore.
36:40The clothes,
36:41the shoes,
36:43and of course,
36:44we'll also give
36:45food and medicines.
36:48But probably,
36:50for the kids,
36:52that's our target.
36:53For the kids.
36:54Suggestions,
36:55maybe all the celebrities
36:56should get clothes
36:57and we auction them.
36:59Yes.
37:00And the money should go
37:01into any charitable situation
37:03the truest.
37:04Yes.
37:05We already did that
37:06last year.
37:07The TV show,
37:08we auctioned
37:09all of our clothes.
37:10We sold them
37:11in a garage sale.
37:12Then with the money,
37:13we were able to raise 30,000.
37:14They said,
37:15why are you doing that?
37:16What will you get from that?
37:17But you'd be surprised
37:18that we were there
37:19in Changi
37:20and we sold the clothes
37:21in the garage sale.
37:22We were able
37:23to raise 30,000
37:24and we were able
37:25to buy a freezer
37:27and an air conditioner
37:28for the needs
37:29of the white class.
37:30That's good.
37:31Do you have a project, Julio?
37:32Me,
37:33it's still the same.
37:34Ongoing.
37:35It's still ongoing
37:36but the clothes
37:37and everything,
37:38it's still the same.
37:39Call ever.
37:40If there's anyone,
37:41Julio,
37:42let's call him.
37:47For me,
37:48I will coordinate
37:49with Ms. Pexon
37:50and Ricky.
37:53Let's contaminate him.
37:55Contaminated.
37:58That's what you're saying.
38:02Chief,
38:03for today,
38:04Titaglo.
38:05That's what we're saying.
38:06There are many
38:07who want to help
38:08but don't know
38:09where to help.
38:10I'm sure
38:11there will be hundreds
38:12and hundreds of them.
38:14Thank you very much
38:15for your inspiring words.
38:17Thank you for being
38:18good examples
38:19to our society
38:20when it comes
38:21to giving.
38:22Our pleasure.
38:23Thank you very much.
38:24Sis will be back.
38:35We are sisters.
38:39Our guests are very inspiring.
38:41Because it's true,
38:42sometimes we complain.
38:44The smallest thing is,
38:45wow,
38:46what is that?
38:47The air conditioner is on.
38:48Yes,
38:49and then the others.
38:50But they,
38:51they don't have a bed.
38:52Right?
38:53The others don't have a bed.
38:54This is for Ricky.
38:55This is his talent,
38:56P.
38:58We will use it
38:59to give
39:00to the orphans.
39:01He gave it.
39:02He gave it.
39:03Right?
39:04What is that?
39:05What is that?
39:06Right?
39:07The thing is,
39:08when there is a surplus,
39:09and we know
39:10that we don't really need it,
39:13right?
39:14Let's give it to the others.
39:15What is that?
39:16What is the share?
39:17If we don't have money
39:18to give
39:19or things to use,
39:20time.
39:21Time and effort.
39:22Because of course,
39:23the children really need
39:24food,
39:25hugs,
39:26when there is something
39:27to do,
39:28sometimes they just need
39:29to talk.
39:30That is really attention.
39:31So,
39:32I hope
39:33that we don't think
39:34about things like this
39:35during Christmas.
39:36All year round.
39:37I think all our lives,
39:38we should
39:39think about that.
39:41So that we can appreciate
39:42how blessed we are.
39:43Exactly.
39:44Because sometimes,
39:45when we complain,
39:46we complain
39:47that there is not enough.
39:48But they don't have anything.
39:50We complain
39:51because our problems
39:52are too big.
39:53Exactly.
39:54That's why
39:55we should give love
39:56on Christmas day.
39:57Correct.
39:58Because we really need it.
39:59Okay.
40:00We really need it.
40:01I hope
40:02you were also inspired
40:03by our episode today.
40:05Because we are
40:06really persunidionistic.
40:08We are contaminated.
