Huelgas treats Las Piñas folks

MANILA, Philippines – Triathlon ace Nikko Huelgas, a two-time Southeast Asian Games gold medalist, celebrated his 29th birthday in a special way.

Last Saturday, Huelgas, who is the chairman of the Philippine Olympic Committee (POC) Athletes’ Commission, distributed packed Chooks-to-Go meals to the frontliners and the needy in his hometown of Las Piñas City.

“Lahat tayo apektado ngayong pandemya. Kaya ngayong kaarawan ko, naisipan kong mamahagi ng saya at kalusugan kasama ng Chooks-to-Go,” said Huelgas, a product of De La Salle University.

Huelgas went around town to personally distribute the packed meals and personally thank each frontliner for their service to the country.

“Araw-araw ko silang nakikita na umulan man o umaraw, hindi sila tumitigil sa pagtulong sa amin dito sa Las Piñas. Maliit lang na tulong ito kumpara sa serbisyo na ginagawa nila para sa bayan,” continued Huelgas.
