Since its launch in March, it has garnered positive feedback and rave reviews from viewers and netizens as they sing along with the artists in the comforts of their homes.

It started out as a mini-concert series featuring the singers of GMA Artist Center but it has grown to include everyone else from Artist Center: actors, hosts, comedians—all of them with the desire to entertain and help fellow Filipinos.

It’s also a fundraiser to help aid the needs of frontliners in the country. This gesture has touched the lives of these stars’ avid supporters who turn to every ‘Healing Hearts’ session for their daily dose of inspiration. In a way, this binds them together despite the limitations brought by the lockdown.

For actor Ruru Madrid, participating in this project has brought him closer to his fans.

“Because of our world's current situation, I know that everyone is going through a tough time. Therefore, as a public figure, my purpose is to put smiles on their faces. Through inspiring songs, I do my best to help them forget the negativity for a while and I believe in my own little way, I’ve done my part to extend help to others,” he says.

EA Guzman, on the other hand, treats this as giving tribute to the frontliners: “We are united as one thank and salute our modern-day heroes, at the same time give advice while entertaining our stay-at-home Kapuso.”

Singer Hannah Precillas echoes the sentiments of those who feel weary. 

“I know that all of us want the world to heal and for this pandemic—that has claimed a lot of lives — to be over,” she shares.

For Prima Donnas star Elijah Alejo, she takes this as an opportunity to help out and be part of something good. 

She says, “I was able to share a way how my fans can donate to help people affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.”

“Since the outbreak began, we were all required to stay home," he remembers. "One way of reaching out to our fans and to our supporters is through social media. I wanted to inspire others to pray and be strong during this tough time and I’m glad that I have made some of my fans smile and we prayed together for the people who are affected by the pandemic.”
