Let me share to you why I’m so inspired on KKK ” Kababaihan nasa Kamay natin ang Kaligtasan ng BAYAN. A group of empowered women who cut and sew for a living!
I was born with farmer father and seamstress mother. 100% of the food we ate are from Papang farm produce while 80% of the clothes my family wear are work of art by Mamang.
Every school recognition is a chance for us to go up the stage, wear our best dress, adorn with candy necklaces and dried sunflower.
Mang and I will go to the market and she lets me choose the top 5 dresses that i want, then we proceed to the tela station and delicately choose the fabrics, ornaments, laces, buttons.
While my classmate paraded their new gown/dress, my parents can’t afford to buy us new clothes and so I came with my Mama Ella personal design & style dress with matching curled hair!
I know many of us are smiling and my relatives can relate on this…

PLDT-Smart Foundation partners with women's group to provide face masks, PPEs to frontliners
Through the KKK women’s group, the PLDT-Smart Foundation is able to provide face masks to several hospitals in Metro Manila.
PLDT-Smart Foundation (PSF), in partnership with the Kababaihan, Kamay ng Kalikasan (KKK), recently distributed over 36,000 protective face masks to frontliners from various organizations and communities to help augment the supply of face masks — necessities in the continuing fight against the spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
Some 500 sets of personal protective equipment (PPE) were also donated to the following facilities: Novaliches Hospital, Sta. Ana Hospital, National Center for Mental Health, San Lazaro Hospital and Jose Fabella Memorial Hospital.
Among the recipients of the face masks were the AFP frontliners, Makati Medical Center Foundation for PNP HPG and various communities affected by COVID-19.
“It is an honor for us to help our beloved frontliners by equipping them with the basic necessities, such as face masks and PPEs, to protect them in their battle against COVID-19,” said PSF President Ma. Esther O. Santos.
“We would like to assure our frontliners that we are here for them and one with them in fighting this pandemic,” Santos said.
The KKK women’s group has produced over 36,000 face masks for Frontliners nationwide.
“If every Filipino will wear a face mask, observe physical distancing and practice proper hygiene, we will all have some protection from COVID-19,” KKK Founder and Commissioner at Philippine Commission on Women, Sandy Sanchez Montano pointed out.
“We are glad to provide reusable, non-woven protective masks produced by women who were severely affected by the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) due to the pandemic,” Montano added.
The KKK is a program under the Community Health Education Emergency Rescue Services Corp. (CHEERS). It aims to actively help in addressing the spread of COVID-19 while providing a source of sustainable livelihood for women who need to make a living for their families. KKK participants/beneficiaries include women-recipients of 4Ps, solo parents, and those who were affected by the ECQ.
A non-profit organization, the PSF fully serves as the social outreach arm of PLDT, Inc. and its wireless subsidiary, Smart Communications Inc. Headed by PLDT and Smart Chairman Manuel V Pangilinan, the PSF created programs focused on education, livelihood and social enterprise, disaster response and recovery, youth arts and sports development.
