Benjamin Alves Makes Most of Recent Homecoming in Guam S
triking work-life balance, Kapuso actor Benjamin Alves took a well-deserved vacation in Guam to spend quality time with his family before working on his latest project with his home network, GMA. Benjamin spent most of his growing-up years in Guam, where his entire family is based.
Ben and his Guam-based family celebrating the birthday of his nephew Noah.
His excitement to be home was evident on his Instagram account where he shared photos and videos of him and his relatives. In one particular video, the Kapuso star can be seen playing basketball in an arcade with his nephew, Noah. “Hoopin with Noah. Couldn’t help but join in,” he happily shared. During his most recent visit, Benjamin also had the opportunity to visit some of the local radio stations and press offices through GMA Pinoy TV, GMA’s flagship international channel. His media tour included an interview with Pacific Daily News, as well as guestings on “Cruising with KUAM”, “Kumusta Kabayan”, and KTKB Megamixx 101.9 FM Guam, where he was interviewed by his brother DJ Arnold Sapida.

Benjamin also paid a courtesy call to Consul General Marciano R. De Borja at the Philippine Consulate in Tamuning. He also visited the headquarters of GTA Teleguam, one of GMA’s carriers in the territory. “It’s so nice to see our #TeamAbroad here in Guam grow since introducing GMA Pinoy TV here. It feels like so much of me being a Kapuso has come from me being raised in Guam,” he revealed. According to him, knowing that his “fellow islanders” enjoy Kapuso programs especially those he was part of is a validation that GMA Pinoy TV continues to reach more and more Filipinos in Guam.

GMA Kapuso Foundation Responds to Continuous Famine in Maguindanao by Gian Gabriela Manuel, GMAKF
20,000 people from the municipalities of Datu Hoffer Ampatuan, Rajah Buayan, and Talayan benefited from the recent food distribution efforts of GMAKF in Maguindanao
G
MA Kapuso Foundation (GMAKF) conducted another round of relief distribution in Maguindanao from May 30 to June 3, in response to the continuing food shortage in the area. With the entire GMAKF team working in full force, a total of 20,000 residents fromz the municipalities of Datu Hoffer Ampatuan, Rajah Buayan, and Talayan benefitted from the activity. The deployed team, despite the absence of an army escort, also visited areas that are only a few kilometers away from the site of the “Maguindanao massacre” in 2009 and the “Mamasapano clash” last year.
For this particular cause, GMAKF is still accepting rice, noodles, canned goods, coffee, and sugar. Interested parties may drop off their donations at the GMA Kapuso Foundation office, 2nd floor, Kapuso Center, GMA Network Drive cor. Samar St., Diliman, Quezon City, weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monetary donations may also be deposited to any branch of Metrobank, UCPB, PNB and Cebuana Lhuiller. No service fee will be deducted from donations made to GMA Kapuso Foundation. For further details, visit the GMAKF website at http://www. gmanetwork.com/kapusofoundation.
GMAKF was among the first to provide relief assistance in Maguindanao last February through its Operation Bayanihan project, distributing relief packs to 12,000 individuals and conducting a soup kitchen for 250 children. Residents and the agricultural sector of Maguindanao have yet to recover from El Niño that has affected various parts of our country. As such, the Foundation saw the need to extend assistance anew to the thousands of farming families affected by the continuous famine. Earlier this year, citizens in some areas in Mindanao have resorted to eating tiki-tiki, crushed corn kernels, and kayos, a poisonous wild crop. It takes cautious and thorough preparation to get rid of the toxins of kayos to prevent incidents of poisoning and dizziness. Some families also had to sell their carabaos and other farm animals in order to have food. GMA KAPUSO MAGAZINE |JUNE 2016 ISSUE
