Almost a month after losing their homes, livelihoods, and loved ones, there are around 1.4 million Filipino families in areas devastated by Super Typhoon Odette who are still struggling to rebuild their lives in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic.

To help our fellowmen get back on their feet, ABS-CBN has launched “Tulong-Tulong sa Pag-ahon: Isang Daan Sa Pagtutulungan,” a series of fundraising activities in 100 days from different groups within ABS-CBN, starting with ABS-CBN shows and stars, with the goal of providing assistance to 100,000 affected families.       

“Isang Daan Sa Pagtutulungan,” which marks the second phase of ABS-CBN and ABS-CBN Foundation’s online fund drive for Odette survivors. Activities started on Jan. 9 and will run until April 18. It kicked off with By Request, a benefit concert featuring Asia’s Songbird Regine Velasquez-Alcasid on FYE Channel on Kumu, the ABS-CBN Entertainment Facebook page and YouTube channel, and iWantTFC.       

“Your donation will reach our kababayans, especially as many are still experiencing difficulties and are in need of our help. Let’s pay it forward. Generosity should not only happen during the holidays. We should share our blessings all year round,” said during the online concert, which as of 10:15 pm last night already raised at least P1 million as ABS-CBN Foundation awaits figures from other donation platforms.       

After Regine, Kyle Echarri took over the mic on Jan. 10 followed by Ogie Alcasid on Jan 11. KD Estrada and Alexa Ilacad, Jed Madela, Yeng Constantino, Darren Espanto, and Erik Santos have also confirmed their participation in the coming days.
