Actress-host Kim Chiu is lending a hand to her hometown Cebu after it was rattled by a powerful earthquake earlier this week.
Chiu, a native of Cebu City, was seen at a supermarket buying sacks of rice, bottled water, and food packs for families displaced by the quake.
Photos of her pushing carts filled with supplies circulated online, drawing praise from fans who commended her effort to personally purchase the goods instead of just making a donation.
The “It’s Showtime” host has long spoken proudly of her Cebu roots and expressed concern for residents affected by the tremor. She kept details of her relief initiative low-key, but supporters said her actions spoke louder than words.
The quake left several communities in Cebu scrambling for basic needs as relief operations continue.
