UST's Laure, Hernandez join coronavirus fund raising
MANILA, Philippines — UST standouts Eya Laure and Imee Hernandez are the latest volleyball stars to participate in a jersey auction in raising funds for the coronavirus outbreak in the country.
Along with teammates Maji Mangulabnan, Janna Torres and Det Pepito, Laure and Hernandez have put their UAAP Season 80 girls volleyball jerseys up for auction as a set.
The five jerseys will be part of national team setter Jia Morado's Every Little Thing Counts project where they accumulate funds to obtain personal protective equipment (PPEs) and masks for frontliners.
Every day is filled with surprises, we just need patience & positivity!
