Patch Magtanong donates PPE
Beauty queen Patricia Magtanong donated through Panday Bayanihan personal protective equipment (PPE) to frontliners battling the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
According to the 26-year-old lawyer, she delivered the items to the National Center for Mental Health and the Philippine Children’s Medical Center.
The Miss International Philippines 2019 also thanked her friend and Senator Grace Poe’s son, Brian Poe Llamanzares.
“Also working with Senator Poe’s office to craft and promote legislation pro-women and children. Recently, we filed Senate Bill No. 1410 which abolishes a penal provision legitimizing honor killings against women and children. Looking forward to more!” she wrote as caption to her Instagram post.
In turn, Grace thanked Patch for her good deed.
“I’d like to thank my fellow UP alum Bb. Pilipinas International 2019 Patch Magtanong for her donation of PPEs. Through donors like @ patchmag, we are able to help more hospitals in need. The @PandayBayanihan team, led by @heyitsbrianpoe, visited the Philippine Children’s Medical Center—which caters to kids infected with #Covid19 to distribute the PPEs donated by Atty. Magtanong,” wrote the daughter of late action star Fernando Poe Jr. (Report by Stephanie Marie Bernardino)
