Gabbi Garcia responds coolly to critic of community pantry
Actress Gabbi Garcia and her neighbors established a community pantry in BF Northwest, Parañaque City, to help those in need during the pandemic.
The pantry offers donations such as vegetables, rice, noodles, sardines, bottled water, and free ice cream.
A poster at the pantry indicates that the goods are free for security guards, delivery riders, and construction workers.
Garcia responded to a netizen who criticized the initiative, stating, "Hindi ko po kailangan ang inyong negative na opinyon..."
She also urged the critic to message her if they wished to donate or help.
The initiative was inspired by Ana Patricia Non's original community pantry on Maginhawa Street in Quezon City.
