Public service the Unang Hirit way

The Philippine Star

Just recently, when Pedring and Quiel hit Central Luzon and caused loss of lives and destruction of properties, the public did not only need rapid and accurate information about the storm. Immediate assistance in terms of free supply of food, water and other basic needs became very urgent for the victims too.
And GMA 7’s Unang Hirit (UH) undoubtedly delivered both up-to-the minute news and serbisyong totoo.
“Since nagsimula ang Unang Hirit, laging magkasama ang news and public service. Asahan natin na ‘pag may ganyang mga uri ng calamity, katulong yung iba pang sectors, talagang gumagawa kami ng feeding programs, medical missions at katulong kami sa paglilinis ng community,” shares UH main host and GMA News and Public affairs pillar Arnold Clavio.
With the help of GMA Kapuso Foundation, Unang Hirit was able to bring loads of relief goods in different barangays and evacuation sites in Pampanga and Bulacan.

Their serbisyong totoo efforts also included providing simple yet important needs — “libreng patubig, libreng palaba, libreng paligo, libreng cellphone charging stations and libreng pasakay sa bangka.” Clavio adds that Unang Hirit will always be there to reach out and help those in need.
And the public is returning the favor to the Kapuso morning program as Unang Hirit continues its dominance in its timeslot in both Mega Manila and Urban Luzon based on the latest data from Nielsen TV Audience Measurement.
Join Clavio and the rest of the UH barkada composed of Rhea Santos, Suzi Entrata-Abrera, Lyn Ching-Pascual, Pia Arcangel, Connie Sison, Love Añover, Susan Enriquez, Drew Arellano, Lhar Santiago, Luane Dy and Monica Verallo, Mondays through Fridays, from 5 to 8:15 a.m.
