A total of 113 individuals received free dentures from the GMA Kapuso Foundation in celebration of Oral Health Month.
According to a report on “24 Oras,” Monday, the project was in partnership with Centro Escolar University (CEU) School of Dentistry.
Among the beneficiaries are Lhola and Monica, who are both beauticians from Marikina City.
“Yung customer mo nakikipagwkentuhan tas biglang tumalsik [‘yung pustiso],” Monica said. “‘Yun talaga ang nakaka-discourage.”
Lhola, meanwhile, has been enduring having no dentures for five years now, making it difficult to eat.
With their new dentures, Monica and Lhola are now feeling more confident when facing their customers.
“Nagkalaman ‘yung pisngi ko. Tumaba taba raw ‘yung mukha ko,” Lhola said. “Ganda ganda ko. Beautiful. Bumata ako, 10 years younger.”
“‘Wow,’ sabi nila. ‘Di kita nakilala. Nanibago ako sa ‘yo, Monica.’ Maraming Salamat Kapuso, sa school of dentistry CEU. Eto, nabalik na ulit ‘yung ngiti ko,” Monica said.
For those who want to take part in GMA Kapuso Foundation’s initiatives, you may send your donations through bank deposits, Cebuana Lhuillier, GCash, Shopee, PayMaya, Zalora, MegaMart, Globe Rewards, Metrobank credit card, and Lazada.
