00:00Although it is hard to move due to his poor condition in his bones,
00:08the dream of a 10-year-old boy that we met in Leyte is still alive.
00:14In order to ease his anxiety and to satisfy his determination to study,
00:21he was entrusted with the help of the GMA Kapusu Foundation.
00:26Day by day, Jannette diligently carries his 10-year-old son, Dave, to school.
00:36It is hard for Dave to move and he is small compared to his classmates in Grade 2.
00:42He was born with Osteogenesis Imperfecta, a serious bone disease.
00:51It's a genetic disorder wherein collagen is affected.
00:56If there is abnormality in the collagen, the connective tissue becomes fragile,
01:01specifically or most commonly affected is the bone.
01:04There is no cure for this.
01:05Despite his condition, he continues to study.
01:10His father even made him a chair that fits his size.
01:16The 300 pesos they earn every day from farming is not enough for Dave to buy a wheelchair.
01:25He is really persistent.
01:26Even if it is hard, we really support him
01:29so that he will not think that he is different from other children.
01:34As a member of the GMA Kapusu Foundation,
01:37on the International Day of Persons with Disabilities on December 3,
01:43we went to Leyte to give Dave a new pediatric wheelchair.
01:48Thank you very much to the GMA Kapusu Foundation.
01:52This wheelchair that you gave is a big help to my son until he grows up.
01:57Kapusu, we will continue to bring hope to children with disabilities like Dave.
02:05Some black people in the West have not fully recovered
02:10due to the eruption of Volcano Canlaon last June.
02:13This is another problem, the new eruption of Volcano Canlaon this Monday.
02:18Your GMA Kapusu Foundation immediately went to Baguio City to deliver a message.
02:28When will it be Christmas?
02:30Also, Volcano Canlaon erupted this Monday.
02:33The calvary is not yet over because according to PHIVOX,
02:37it is possible to follow its activity.
02:40That is why Mariani, a barangay resident in Baguio City, Negros Occidental,
02:46could not sleep well because of fear.
02:51Last night, I could not sleep.
02:54I thought that the volcano was collapsing.
02:58I thought it was going to erupt again.
03:00But it did not erupt because it was raining.
03:04Here are the flowers.
03:05The plants that were destroyed by Volcano Canlaon last June are not yet bearing fruit.
03:11Their newly planted plants have been damaged again.
03:16Even the chickens that she raises are getting sick because of the thick ashfall.
03:22The chickens that we raise get sick because the ashfall is too thick.
03:28When they get sick, they cough.
03:32Volcanic ash can also be seen in the houses.
03:36On our trip to Ilihan Barangay,
03:39we could hardly see the road because of the thick ashfall.
03:44Under Operation Bayanihan,
03:47we brought relief goods and KN95 masks
03:51to 8,000 individuals in Ilihan Barangay and Mailom in Baguio City.
03:57We are thankful to the GMA Kapuso Foundation
04:00for providing assistance to our fellow countrymen here.
04:03Because of the eruption of Volcano Canlaon,
04:05our fellow countrymen lost their lives.
04:10Instead of a peaceful Christmas,
04:13residents are worried about the eruption of Volcano Canlaon.
04:20Your GMA Kapuso Foundation
04:22has once again provided assistance to the town of La Castellana and La Carlota.
04:31Mary Jane was affected by the thick ashfall
04:34when she returned to her house in Barangay Sag-Ang
04:38in the town of La Castellana, Negros Occidental.
04:42They were just at the foot of Volcano Canlaon,
04:45so they were severely affected by the eruption this Monday.
04:49Her mother and son continued to stay at her brother's house in Bacolod.
04:55But because they couldn't leave their chickens,
04:58Mary Jane and her eldest son stayed at their house.
05:03I saw my mother crying.
05:06She had a lot of chickens here.
05:09She bathed them in sulfur.
05:12I'm okay here as long as you're there in Bacolod.
05:16While Marites was affected by the ashfall
05:19because of the smell of sulfur.
05:23It's scary because you run and chase your children to school.
05:28You even ask my father.
05:30It's scary. I'm so nervous.
05:33Currently, the La Castellana Municipal Health Office
05:38is ordering residents to wear face masks
05:41to protect themselves against the ashfall.
05:45The particles emitted by the volcano
05:48are too small to enter our respiratory system.
05:53As part of the Jemay Capuzzo Foundation's assistance,
05:57they provided face masks, relief goods, and toasted bread
06:01to 8,000 individuals in the town of La Castellana and La Carlota.
06:06Thank you so much, Capuzzo!
06:10For those who want to help the victims,
06:13you can deposit in our bank accounts
06:16or send to Cebuana Loyal here.
06:19You can also do it online via GCash, Shopee, Lazada,
06:22Globe Rewards, and Metro Bank Credit Card.
