ALMA CONCEPCION’S MAGIC MOMENTS

- MARINELR. CRUZ

Beauty queen-turned-actress Alma Concepcion has a very simple plan this holiday season. “This year, I’ll give my loved ones memorable moments as much as I can.”

When it comes to material stuff, she vows to give them “gifts that they would love … and would love to wear.”

In a nutshell, she wishes them “happiness, peace of mind and good health.”

Like most career-oriented people, her goal for 2018 involves “achieving mymaximum potential.”

Her most unforgetta­ble Christmase­s were those “times when my family was complete. Now, my brothers live in Japan and my mom and sister are based in the States.”

A family reunion this Christmas season is a fervent wish, of course.— BAYANI SAN DIEGO JR.

Mon’s soft spot for the homeless

Mon Confiado appreciate­s the blessings that have been coming his way—and he wants to share them.

He told the Inquirer: “I recently did a film about the homeless in Los Angeles, California. I was surprised to meet a lot of homeless people there.

“I suddenly had the urge to look for a Filipino family living on the streets and give them a helping hand. I’m talking about people who are forced into homelessne­ss by poverty.

“I recently met a family living on Katipunan Avenue corner Aurora Boulevard in Quezon City. I’m just confirming if the family members are really indigents, because I don’t want my efforts to just go to waste.”—
