Rio Olympics silver medalist Hidilyn Diaz is doing her part in raising funds for frontliners fighting COVID-19.
The 28-year-old lifter said proceeds would be used to purchase food, which she intends to distribute to poor people in Metro Manila, Bulacan and her hometown Zamboanga City.
Diaz said that by sharing her experience, knowledge and techniques, it would encourage people to join the seminar this month, and be able to raise funds from donations from participants. “Ang food package po nagkakahalaga ng P480-P490. More on gulay po ibibigay namin. Also, titignan din po kung kaya din magbigay sa organizations for PPE for the frontliners,” she said.
