Actress Bela Padilla launched a crowdfunding campaign, 'Pagkain Para sa Pinoy,' to raise funds for street vendors and others in need affected by the Metro Manila community quarantine.
The campaign initially aimed to raise P1 million but quickly surpassed its goal.
On March 17, nearly P1.4 million had been raised.
On March 18, a single P2 million donation brought the total to P3.3 million.
Padilla announced she will personally ensure the funds are used to procure and distribute food supplies.
She had previously closed the GoGetFunding page after hitting the initial target.
