MANILA, Philippines — Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto thanked Kapamilya actresses Angel Locsin and Anne Curtis for donating P1 million for the city’s COVID-19 response. 

In a recent Facebook Live, Vico commended the actresses for donating the P1-million check without fanfare. 

"Dinonate nila ito walang fanfare, walang media. Ni hindi nga kami nagkita. Iniwan lang nila 'yung tseke," Vico said. 

"Thank you sa lahat nang tumutulong, nagmamalasakit, alam ko man o hindi," he added.

The young mayor said that the donation from Angel and Anne will be used to buy more COVID-19 vaccines. 

"Idadagdag po natin 'yan sa vaccination fund natin," Vico said.

"I-earmark lang po natin kasi sa ngayon wala pa pong bagong manufacturer na puwedeng pag-orderan," he added.

Angel and Anne earlier raised P6 million through a celebrity auctions and donated it to the Philippine Red Cross and five local governments.
