Eumir Marcial isn’t done giving back to his kababayans a month after clinching the bronze medal during the 2021 Tokyo Olympics.

With the help of Chooks-to-Go and the members of the Philippine Air Force, Marcial and company put up a community pantry in Bagumbayan, Quezon City.

“Dati po, ganito din kami. Pumipila kami sa mga bigasan na nagbibigay. Ngayon, kami naman ‘yung tumutulong sa ating kababayan. Walang imposible kung tayo ay magsipag at manalangin,” Marcial shared.

Included in the community pantry in Bagumbayan are packed dressed chickens from Chooks-to-Go and packed meals.

Together with Marcial during the distribution was the Philippines’ first-ever Olympic gold medalist Hidilyn Diaz who is also part of the PH Air Force.

“Sa panahon po ngayon, huwag tayo mawalan ng pag-asa. Nandito po ‘yung Philippine Air Force para mag-alalay sa atin, at nandito rin ‘yung Chooks-to-Go na tumutulong din sa mahihirap. Tayong mga Pilipino, lalaban po tayo,” added Marcial.

Just one month ago, both Marcial and Diaz brought glory to the country when they led team Philippines to its best-ever Olympic finish.
