Busy celebs don’t forget to share their blessings

Action star Robin Padilla, boxing champ Manny Pacquiao, and sexy comedienne Rufa Mae Quinto are using their star power to make a difference in the lives of the poor.All three believe in sharing their blessings in their own little ways.

On his own, Robin has been helping his Muslim brothers. Last year, he built Liwanag ng Kapayapaan Foundation, a free preschool for Muslim children in Quezon City.

An anti-malaria advocate since 2004, Robin is also the spokesperson of the Department of Health’s Movement Against Malaria (MAM). He also lent financial assistance to the Muay Association of the Philippines and a Muslim cemetery in Norzagaray, Bulacan.

Celebrated boxer Manny Pacquiao is now preparing for his second face-off with Juan Manuel Marquez of Mexico. Their first encounter in May 2004 ended in a draw. The Pacquaio-Marquez rematch is on March 15 at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.

Pacquiao has inspired many aspiring boxers and the common man to dream big.

In demand comedienne Rufa Mae has her hands full. She is presently seen in “SOP Rules,” “Showbiz Central” and “Bubble Gang.” She also lends her voice to ‘Fifi’ in “Marimar.” She was last seen on the big screen via “Desperadas.”

Rufa Mae is a gay icon. She popularized such expressions as “Ok, fine,” “Todo Na!” and “To the highest level!”
