How do you feel that you are the first volunteer to become the Community Leader of #healthierPH?
I'm so happy when I found out that I'm the first #healthierPH Community Leader. I had been wanting to volunteer physically in any organization that helps people, but I don't get the chance. Good thing I learned about Unilab Foundation. Knowing that I'm helping our country to become healthier by doing volunteer projects online really feels good! My online activities are equivalent to 5 hours of service or 1000 pesos donation.
What did you do to rank up and become the first Community Leader of #healthierPH?
I completed the #HealthIsHappening: The 21-day Healthy Habit Challenge, where I posted my healthy commitment every day for 21 days. It's fun because it’s something for a cause, yet I benefit from it too. I also shared Unilab Foundation's projects on my Facebook account to make more people aware and start volunteering too. The more volunteers, the healthier we'll be!
Why did you join the #HealthIsHappening volunteer project?
I joined the #HealthIsHappening project because I want to stay healthy so I can live long and enjoy life to the fullest. I can do what makes me happy -- helping people. I can be a good example to everyone. I hope that in my simple ways, I can inspire people to do the same, and together, we can make the world a beautiful place to live in.
What is your message to people who want to volunteer like you?
Sharing is caring, helping is developing! Come join me, and together, we can build a #healthierPH. Volunteer now at www.unilabfoundation.org.
