It really is a beautiful thing when brothers help one another. This typhoon may have damaged homes and livelihoods of countless people, but it really brought out the bayanihan spirit in all of us. I'm so proud of my Filipino brothers! But I guess I can't be too happy knowing that our other Filipino brothers are in need.
I feel very lucky to have been a part of the group I was in. I feel blessed to have been given an opportunity to help our brothers in their time of need. Not to mention that my group was the most fun ever! Puro kami mga becky! Hahaha. I was kinda the odd man out there coz almost everyone worked in fashion - designers, stylists etc. But it's all good. I have my niche as fashionista doctor.
Divine collaborated with Jenni Epperson to write about our relief ops to inspire people.

I grabbed some pics from Divine's camera to show you some things that went down.
This is part of our team, mostly people from the fashion industry
We served a lot of people. This photo shows only some
of the people who lined up for goods
This is me seeing to patients
If the jacket looks familiar it's from Ziggy Savella holiday 2009 collection
There were times when we went well into the evening handing out goods.
(Far right) That's Mei, a good friend who came with me
She's such an angel for coming. She holds Meiday every few months.
You guys should come, next one's this Saturday.
More of our team. Go team Becky!
