Steph Henares spends birthday at the National Children's Hospital

MANILA, Philippines - GMA Artist Center’s Steph Henares has joined the growing list of celebs who have spent special occasions with the less fortunate, recently spending her birthday with some 40 kids at the National Children’s Hospital. The young host-actress prayed, played games and had lunch with the kids and their parents. ‘My overall experience was awesome because I saw firsthand how God provided for the party and the kids. McDonalds sponsored all the cheeseburgers and drinks for the parents and volunteers and even brought in Ronald.’ In the photos, Steph is shown enjoying the program with a child on her lap (above) and posing with the rest of the kids and the mascots of McDonalds (top). Steph recently stepped up her acting skills by attending the characterization class of Ron Burros of the prestigious Stella Adler Academy and played the love interest of Sid Lucero’s character in the indie film Ang Paglipad ng Anghel.
