MANILA, Philippines – Actress Empress Schuck had an advanced birthday celebration with less fortunate children.
Schuck, who will turn 19 on February 19, said she went to Ephesus Home for Girls and Bethany Sto. Nino Orphanage in Guiginto, Bulacan on Valentine’s Day to share her blessings.
Schuck said it has always been her dream to give back to other people since she has been blessed with more than what she needs.
“Masaya ako kasi ganun pala 'yung feeling. Sobrang sarap sa pakiramdam lalo na kapag nakita mo 'yung mga bata, 'yung mga ngiti nila, alam mong nag-e-enjoy sila. Cute sila tapos super clingy nila kahit hindi nila kakilala, doon ako mas nakyu-cute-an,” she said.
“Teenager pa lang ako, 13 pa lang ganyan, naisip ko since hindi naman kami mayaman sabi ko sa sarili ko sana 'pag dumating ang panahon na marami akong blessings sana ma-share ko 'yun sa ibang tao, lalo na sa mga bata,” the actress explained.
Schuck invited her “Mundo Man ay Magunaw” co-star Ejay Falcon to be with her during the outreach.
“Na-touch naman ako na game na game siya. So ayun, masaya ako na madaming tumulong, 'yung Star Magic, yung sponsors ko, si Ejay. Masaya ako,” she said.
