We had the opportunity to talk to Ms. Mary Rose Marbil, wife of PNP Chief Rommel Marbik a few months ago. She explained to us briefly the initiatives of PNP OLC Foundation Inc. which has now continued to do projects involved in health, family and aspirations of those who are in need while in service. She used to work for private corporations but now use her skills to better organize the foundation to push their shared vision for uniformed and non uniformed personnel, and their beneficiaries.
As of now, they are putting emphasis and help for those suffering from Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and various kinds of cancer which comprise over 80 percent of their beneficiaries.
Aside from that, their LAB (Love and Blessings) Virus program provide monetary support and needed health kits for those who are under 17 Police regions which she also relentlessly tries to visit on a regular basis to make sure their health concerns get addressed to this day.
She also worked with the Quezon City LGU to put up the Child Development Center inside Camp Crame for Early Childhood care for those who are working under the government arm. They are also pushing for upgrades of medical facilities inside the camp, to better serve their community.
If you've seen the trailer, you would say Zaijan Jaranilla is not the same person. He's our Santino of course, but now that he's a wee bit older, wiser, more daring, you can expect him to deliver a different version of himself because the material was perfect.
This series is MOVIE quality. Made by Direk Dolly Dulu, it's going to be a coming of age romcom film which pairs Zaijan to a more experienced Jane Oineza. Zaijan and Jane read the script, and couldn't put it down so they started reading it from Sundown to Sunrise. This will probably be a weekly release starting from May 31st on the Purgold Channel YouTube Channel. No need to pay for a ticket because it's completely free to watch. Isn't that awesome?!
Here's the press conference held at the stage of Aling Puring Sari Sari Convention 2025:
I was also quite intrigued about Joao Constancia's character, will he be the third party or just a friend in this series? That's exactly what you have to figure out as Zaijan and Jane go through the ropes of falling in love, doing it, and see the intricacies of relationships, disappointment and hopefully fall in love again.
Would you want to be part of that journey? Make sure you subscribe to the Puregold Channel because I heard, there's certainly more to this story. Take note also of the color grading they are doing for this, because it's going to follow SOL and LUNA's lives in the series. Can't wait to see it!
The 21st year of Tindahan ni Aling Puring Sari Sari Store Convention has been held in the World Trade Center from May 15 to 17 in Pasay City. This is a way for them to support countless MSME's and enable their growth in the country. The TNAP Sari Sari Store Convention has some of the country's best household brands that give over the top discounts and promos and do it all in one place. Puregold gives them all a platform to showcase the best of the best products they have and include their executives to do it (most of the time). It gets bigger every year!
What's fun is that they do programs too with some of the country's biggest stars, and since I cover entertainment, here's a glimpse of the introductions they did a few days ago:
It was awesome, and they had all their vendors perform a few seconds to introduce themselves. They do this as a service for all of their Puregold Price Club Members, so if you're not a member yet, make sure you apply for one in any of their branches.
Talk of the town Vincent Co was there with his siblings, he is the eldest son of Lucio and Susan Co who founded Puregold. He was there to also welcome the throng of brands that participated in the event. Congratulations to Puregold! I can't wait to see what you have for the other days!
New beauty brand HEBESKIN just launched a new product at Incanta Cave Bar in Quezon City this afternoon. It's a coffee drink made with Mangosteen Extract, Green Coffee Extract, Arabica Coffee, Non Dairy Creamer, Stevia for sweetener, and contains Vitamin C, Probiotics, Alpha Lipoic Acid, L Carnetine, Zinc, Aloe Vera, Ashwagandha and more. Best of all, Total Sugar per serving is 0 grams, something that people like me would love.
Founder and CEO Ms. Penelope Cadlina says "I will do my best to turn my product into results, to something you'll be truly proud. To my family and friends, your support has been my backbone. To my family, you are the heart of everything I do, I promise to push boundaries, and thank you for making this event possible. We are just beginning."
Their COO Jazmine Gonzales added "To be surrounded by people who support us, thank you for believing and you are part of our growth, of who we are today. Your faith in me has meant everything, to my good friend Penelope, your dedication has made this brand truly meaningful. It is about empowering others, to make people be confident about our skin. Thank you so much!"
This is the first time I'm seeing Kai Montinola. I've only known her from PBB and the work she does in Star Magic. She went down the spiral staircase of the venue singing a song that was very apt for her. She's very beautiful, quite eloquent, and have had a happy disposition that afternoon. To say she looked like a goddess is an understatement. This is one of the many reasons why she was chosen as the face of HEBESKIN CurvWhyt Coffee.
Kai says "I feel thankful, thank you for choosing me to represent a product, for HEBESKIN to empower men and women, I feel so great to be the face of the new product. My goddess era is empowering, powerful and confident. "
"For me endorsing a product is a big responsibility, for something that stands for health, I have to implement it in real life and it encourages me to be better."
"Believe it or not, I always ask myself if I am deserving of what I receive, of success and all. You should cherish that, of what people around you say. Know yourself before you say the same with others."
Here's her interview in full:
Kai also sings, we witnessed it that afternoon.

If you want to try the coffee she endorses, you may get them HERE. Kai is still in her teens, and she's already an endorser of a very promising brand. She's bound for more. With her beautiful skin, brains and undeniable charm, it's going to be a great year for her. Congratulations HEBESKIN and Kai!
