During the final media conference for ABS-CBN’s primetime series Pamilya Sagrado, Piolo Pascual addressed both the socio-political themes of the show and his real-life advocacy efforts.
The action-drama series, where Pascual portrays Rafael Sagrado, a government official who rises to the presidency, concludes this week. His character’s journey sparked questions about his personal initiatives, including his prominent billboards across Metro Manila promoting community welfare in partnership with a party-list.
“[Regarding those billboards], I’m in partnership with a party-list that I supported during the last election,” Pascual said. “We’re working on projects together—they help my foundation, and we visit different places to do outreach.”
Pascual highlighted his Hebreo Foundation, which provides scholarships and runs programs for underprivileged communities. He partners with Ang Probinsyano Party List (APPL), which advocates for neglected rural areas and vulnerable groups.
The actor also praised APPL’s response to Typhoon Kristine, noting their aid to 2,800 families and 3,000 individuals in Albay and Camarines Sur. He commended APPL’s First Nominee, Congressman Alfred “Apid” delos Santos, for leading the relief efforts.
“I endorse those who I believe in and who I think will really help many Filipinos in need,” Pascual said, emphasizing the importance of genuine service in his collaborations.
The finale of Pamilya Sagrado airs today on ABS-CBN.
