Other big-name personalities are also helping those affected.
Maine Mendoza is donating 1,000 pesos constantly to homes so they can buy themselves necessary resources. Those workers who don’t make much such as street/market vendors, construction workers, street sweepers, and labanderas will be given additional financial support, as long as they show an ID.

AC Soriano, who is a content creator is also doing something good for the people. He started a โGandang Bardagulan 2020โ campaign where all funds will go to COVID-19 frontliners through the Office of the Vice President and Sitio San Roque.
You guys! We just reached P456,791 in 3 hours! Thank YOU for your generosity! WOW!
These will all go to our fellow Filipinos in need–PUV drivers, frontliners, the homeless, etc ๐

Saab Magalona just tweeted asking people who are willing to rent out their condo units to health workers.

It’s safe to say that Saab did those health workers a big favor, given that she has a large following, and is a well-known celebrity in the country.

Kier Ramos is getting praised for helping out an old woman buy tons of goods.
Salamat sa mga nag dodonate ๐ญ Hindi na po niya kailangan mag lakad ng 10km everyday day during this quarantine period for her food. Stay at home muna Nanay Estella. I will DM po everyone the receipts that lola has received your donations. First time niya daw sa SM mamili ๐ญ pic.twitter.com/GvqFan3IH2
— Kier Ramos ๐ฌ๐ง (@kingkongramos) March 19, 2020
People who want to donate can just send Kier a private message for the details. The old woman couldn’t believe the blessing that was bestowed upon her.
Kasama nya po ako sa pag budget ng mga basic needs nya para siguradong sa tama mapupunta ang bawat donation. To those who wants to donate pa, please DM me. Sobrang pasasalamat from nanay. Di po sya makapaniwala. She asked me kung baka panaginip lang ito ๐ญ

Siya po ang pinapili ko sa lahat. Nahirapan pa ako kasi sobrang nahihiya sya sakin pero sabi ko nay, hindi po saakin ang pera nayan kung hindi collective efforts ng mga tao para matulungan kayo. pic.twitter.com/s1HIjR0oSg
