P1.5 million of canned goods and rice went to church-based nonprofit Caritas Manila, which has been facilitating donations to the poor and elderly. The other P1 million was spent on “groceries and other goods” for two groups, namely persons with disability in Quezon City and people on the streets of Pasay, Manila and Makati. She did the distributions herself for the latter group along with the Philippine Army.
“When the 2 million comes in finally hopefully next week, I will take my 1 million back and use 1 million for one more food drive,” she assured. “I won’t reply to anybody about this anymore after this post,” she said about queries on how the funds were spent.Padilla made the fundraising initiative after seeking help online on how she could assist street vendors affected by the Luzon-wide enhanced community quarantine.
