On Christmas Day, Kris Aquino vowed to help more by putting fellow Filipinos in need first.
On Instagram, Kris said that she's carrying a big responsibility these days because she's the last one still carrying the names Cojuangco Aquino.
"Dapat ituloy ang pagbibigay ng tulong na walang hinihinging kapalit... tumatanaw lang po ako ng aming forever na utang na loob dahil sa nagawa ninyo nung nakaraan at tinutuloy pa rin hanggang ngayon: marami pa rin po ang hindi nang iiwan at patuloy nagbibigay tiwala, nawala man ang gitna ng pamilyang Cojuangco Aquino, ngayong 2021," Kris said.
First on her list is Negros Occidental.
"My main reason why I chose Negros Occidental 1st: Bacolod was my last overnight trip with Noy, near the end of the 2016 campaign... by helping the province that gave him an overwhelming victory in 2010, I’m not only honoring his memory BUT in my own way, I’m trying to make up for my shortcomings sa kuya ko, in the way I know he’ll best appreciate-by putting our fellow Filipinos in need, first," Kris also said.
Kris is the daughter of former President Corazon "Cory" Cojuangco Aquino who served as the 11th President of the Philippines from 1986 to 1992.
Her brother Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III became the 15th President of the Philippines from 2010 to 2016.
Both Aquinos have passed on.

"Hindi kailangan nasa posisyon, at hindi rin kailangan maging kandidato para tumulong sa kapwa Pilipino... lalo na sa ganitong panahon. para po sa ‘kin, sapat na po yung pakikipaglaban at pagmamahal na binigay ng marami sa inyo, NAKIRAMAY kasi kayo sa ‘min ng tatlong beses, sa mga oras na kailangan talaga namin ang inyong dasal at yakap sa sobrang bigat ng mga puso namin.
"Responsibilidad ko bilang nag iisang anak nila Ninoy at Cory, at kapatid ni PNoy,
BECAUSE... for now, i’m the last one still carrying the last names Cojuangco Aquino. DAPAT ituloy ang pagbibigay ng tulong na walang hinihinging kapalit... tumatanaw lang po ako ng aming forever na UTANG NA LOOB dahil sa nagawa ninyo nung nakaraan at tinutuloy pa rin hanggang ngayon: marami pa rin po ang hindi nang iiwan at patuloy nagbibigay tiwala, nawala man ang gitna ng pamilyang Cojuangco Aquino, ngayong 2021.
"***kaya po i avoided politics because even if i did pay for the @puregold_ph i shared, sayang yung participation nila sa pagtulong namin ni @therealangellocsin. Umaasa ako na marami pang lalapit basta ilayo namin sa pulitika- walang problema basta mas maraming pwedeng mag benefit dahil sobra na ang pinagdaanan at patuloy na pinagdadaanan ng mga Pilipino.
"Sobra na, Tama na. Right choice to help more, you agree w/ me, it’s what I should do NOW, correct Mom?"
