GMA Kapuso Foundation (GMAKF) welcomed the Kapuso Stars as advocates of public service to encourage more youth to take part in GMAKF's disaster, relief, education, and health programs.

Rocco Nacino (Health)
Bea Binene (Disaster Relief)
Patricia Tumulak (Kapuso School Development)
Sofia Pablo and Will Ashley (Unang Hakbang Sa Kinabukasan - Education Support)

The Kapuso artists/advocates committed their time and effort for GMAKF's mission to uplift the lives of underprivileged Filipinos all over the country through the provision of quick-response disaster relief operations; the undertaking of health, nutritional and medical projects; and the carrying out of developmental programs designed to promote education.
Versatile and talented dramatic actor, Rocco Nacino, feels enthusiastic to promote GMAKF's health and nutrition projects such as Bisig Bayan and Give-A-Gift projects. Apart from this showbiz stint, Rocco is a registered nurse and has a master's degree in nursing, which explains his affinity for GMAKF's health projects. He also recently enlisted himself as a reserve in the Philippine Navy and is part of the powerhouse cast of the Pinoy adaptation hit Korean series Descendants of The Sun, as well as the second season of GMA News TV's health talk, show The Healthy Juan.

Rocco is very honored to be part of the Kapuso Foundation because he can continue what he and her mother doing for those who needs help not just to a few people but to more people where he can lend his advocacy. He enjoys parting knowledge and teaching to give awareness on what GMAKF projects all about.
On the other hand, Beautiful Justice star and budding chef/entrepreneur Bea Binene commits to help spread awareness on the need to support GMAKF's Operation Bayanihan relief operations. Bea has noted that more natural calamities are happening in the country and more public donations are needed to sustain GMAKF's efforts when disasters strike to ensure that immediate aid can be given to the needy.
Bea is very thankful with GMAKF because since she was 6 years old she is volunteering until now. According to her, she will continue to serve the welfare of the beneficiaries of Kapuso Foundation. She is focusing on disaster relief and she's very much willing to go to places where people are needing help. She commented that she would really try those who are in need and those who had or will experience calamities.

Kapuso host and actress Patricia Tumulak, who is a graduate of Early Childhood Education, understands the needs of sturdy classrooms all over the Philippines. Patrica is keen on drumming up support for GMAKF;s Kapuso School Development program which undertakes the building and rehabilitation of Schools in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, as well as the Kapuso Tulay Para Sa Kaunlaran, wherein the foundation spearheads the construction of concrete and steel bridges in remote areas of the country to connect communities  to school and markets, in a bid to encourage learning and trade.

Patricia is super happy that GMA artist center gave her the opportunity to join the GMAKF to pursue her passion for helping the foundation with its project about the education program. She added that she will raise awareness to be part of this program to be active and to make youth realize the importance of education.
Lastly, Prima Donnas stars Sofia Pablo and Will Ashley are likewise thrilled about joining GMAKF's distribution of school supplies to tens of thousands of children in need all over the Philippines A pillar project of GMAKF is the annual Unang Hakabang Sa Kinabukasan - which distributes sturdy school bags with complete sets of school supplies to kinder and grade 1 students nationwide.
