Megastar Sharon Cuneta commended Angel Locsin for the latter’s generous donation to the Pawssion Project Foundation, a non-profit animal rescue group.

Cuneta, who has recently become Pawssion Project’s official “pawtner,” disclosed that Locsin donated P50,000 to the cause, as stated on her Instagram page yesterday, March 31.

“Pasensiya ka na anak ko @therealangellocsin pero kailangan ko ito ipagsigawan huwag ka magtatampo sakin!!! Thank you with all my – our hearts for your generous P50,000 donation to @pawssionproject!!!” the Megastar said.

(I am sorry my child @therealangellocsin but I need to let everyone know this, I hope you do not get upset with me.)

“We love you!!! Mabuhay ka anak (Long live, my child)! Thank you for helping the voiceless and showing them so much love and support! Lahat tinutulungan mo di lang kapwa tao natin. God bless you always!” Cuneta stressed.

Pawssion Project also thanked Locsin for her kindness, labeling the former Darna actress a “[real-life] superhero.”

“Thank you @therealangellocsin Pwetpwet is mighty proud in dog heaven,” the foundation said in the comments section, referring to Locsin’s pet dog that passed away last year. “Thank you also [of course] to our mama Sharon for being God’s instrument.”

As the foundation’s new partner, Cuneta is taking part in a fundraising drive with the goal of reaching P120,000. Pawssion Project noted that once they raise the said amount, Cuneta will then match it with another P120,000 donation herself.

“It is with deep gratitude and pride that we welcome into the Pawssion Project family, Ms. Sharon Cuneta-Pangilinan, our official pawtner in making a stand and speaking up for the animals,” Pawssion Project announced via Facebook on March 29.

“It is hard to find people who are both great and good, and Ms. Sharon is definitely one of them. For years she has entertained us with her stellar films, TV shows, and wonderful singing voice, a voice that she will now lend to those who have none,” the group added.

“We consider it a tremendous win to have Ms. Sharon fighting for this cause. With her influence and reach, we know that she will inspire all the people who admire and believe in her to follow suit and become advocates for animals who are abused, abandoned, and neglected, to have that chance at a better life,” Pawssion Project stressed.

Cuneta recently got in touch with Pawssion Project after adopting a stray dog she named Pawi, which she found while shooting a movie in Olongapo. JB
