Ara Galang joins jersey auction for coronavirus frontliners
MANILA, Philippines — Former DLSU star Ara Galang is joining efforts to raise funds for frontliners combating the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak in our country.
Galang, who now plays for F2 Logistics in the Philippine Superliga, has put up one of her jerseys during her collegiate career for auction.
The 25-year-old reached out to fellow volleyball star Jia Morado, who has been organizing fund raising projects for personal protective equipment (PPEs) and face masks for hospitals amid the pandemic.
It's very touching to see people come together for a great cause!

Apart from the auction, Morado is using GCash as a way to encourage others to donate as little as Php 10 for the cause.

We know that there are still a lot of other locations that will be needing PPEs in their fight against COVID-19!
