Bea Gomez joins Odette relief operations in Cebu
Miss Universe Philippines 2021 Beatrice Luigi Gomez personally delivered relief aid to typhoon victims in Compostela, Cebu.
Gomez shared photos of the packing and distribution of 300 packs of relief goods on Instagram, noting that her own family in Cebu was affected by Typhoon Odette.
She expressed that they reached remote areas of Compostela, Cebu, which had not yet received assistance due to accessibility issues.
The relief effort was done in observance of her late Lola Yaga's birth anniversary.
Gomez thanked the donors for their contributions, using the hashtags #BangonSugboanon and #MabuhiKaCebu.
A few days prior, Gomez spent New Year's Day with fire victims, a Muslim community, and evacuees.
After her Miss Universe stint, she worked with SimplyShare Foundation Inc. and the Philippine Navy to distribute an estimated 1000 meals to stranded passengers and drivers in Cebu City ports.
