PLDT Home OMG Winner Donates ₱100k Prize to typhoon victims

In times of crisis, it is often small, quiet choices that make the biggest difference. For the Monsanto family, winning a ₱100,000 cash prize from PLDT Home’s One Mega Giveaway became an opportunity to extend help to fellow Filipinos affected by Typhoon Uwan.

Instead of keeping the reward, the family chose to donate the full amount to PLDT Smart Foundation’s relief efforts, turning a personal win into hope for communities rebuilding their lives. Their gesture is a reminder that bayanihan still thrives, especially when compassion leads the way.
