“To da rescue!! OUR FIRST BIKE RECIPIENT: 18 y/o Kean Ramos receives a bike from the #DonateABikeSaveAJob project,” Ho said Thursday in a Facebook post.

Ramos said he sells coffee and chocolate jelly to help shoulder medical expenses of his father who is “unable to work.”

“Since his dad is sick and can’t do his duties as a Grab Food Driver, Kean decided to take the reins with his own coffee jelly business,” the host further said.

Ho recently launched an initiative to give away 50 bicycles to those who might need them.

The public may nominate a person they want to receive a bicycle by messaging Ho on her social media or sending her an email at [email protected].
