Sparkle stars bring joy to 25 pediatric patients with fun and art!

The season of spreading joy and love officially begins as GMA Network holds another meaningful and heartwarming celebration!

Recently, the Kapuso lobby was transformed into a vibrant space of hope and creativity for the special “Art Gap Gives Back” event.

The occasion was dedicated to 25 pediatric patients of the Little Arc Foundation, who spent the day enjoying art therapy sessions and gift-giving activities.

Adding extra fun and dazzle, several Sparkle artists joined the inspiring gathering.

Among them was special guest Shuvee Etrata, who bonded with the kids through dance challenges and selfies.

Also present were Encantadia Chronicles: Sang'gre star Cassy Lavarias, Hating Kapatid actress Ericca Laude, and young Kapuso star Raphael Landicho, who all gamely interacted and shared smiles with the children.

To make the day even more memorable, Kapuso singers John Rex and Mitzi Josh serenaded everyone with heartfelt performances.

The event was made possible with the support of GMA Network's Vice President and Head of Corporate Affairs and Communications Ms. Angel Javier Cruz and Little Arc Foundation's Founder and President Butch Bustamante.

"A meaningful celebration of art and healing for children with cancer, led by the Little Ark Foundation and the National Children's Hospital," Sparkle GMA Artist Center shared in a post.
