The show must go on for the biggest entertainment event of the year in the GMA GALA. Amidst the inclement weather, the red carpet will be opened to most of the biggest names in local show business on August 2.
A glamorous event primarily created to raise funds for the Kapuso Foundation, GMA Gala already did its part for the victims of the monsoon rains and the 3 typhoons by donating 2.5 million pesos for the foundation’s relief operations. This, even before the Gala began.
At its Partners’ Night held at Newport World Resorts, which was also graced by some of Sparkle’s emerging talents, GMA Network Senior Vice President Atty. Annette Gozon-Valdez and Sparkle’s First Vice President Joy Marcelo handed the P2.5 million donation to GMA Kapuso Foundation Executive Vice President and COO Rikki Escudero-Catibog. The 2 million aid was from GMA and Sparkle while the 500,000 was awarded by BingoPlus Foundation.
Even before the celebrities are glammed up, and even before the red carpet is rolled out, relief operations by the Kapuso Foundation already reached areas badly hit by the flooding caused by the Habagat and the typhoons.
Here are some of the scenes from the GMA Gala Partners’ Night.
