The Queen of All Media, the youngest sister of former late President Benigno Aquino III, handed out bags of relief goods during Robredo’s visit to the cities of Kabankalan and Himamaylan.

She brought relief goods wearing a pink sweat shirt and a pink face mask. Pink is Robredo’s campaign color for the 2022 presidential elections.

“Very special thanks to Kris Aquino, who not only joined me in Negros Occidental, but also generously gave Puregold grocery bags to residents of Kabangkalan and Himamaylan who lost their homes because of Typhoon Odette,” Robredo said in a Facebook post on Wednesday night.

Apart from the relief goods, she added the actress and TV host also gave away prepaid SIM cards to 500 Negrenses.

“Thank you very much, Kris, for always being generous of yourself,” the aspiring president posted with emoticon of pink hearts.

Robredo left a team behind to further assess the situation there and address the needs of affected residents.
