Alden shared in an interview with the press that ever since he started showbiz, he has always supported Kapuso Foundation and that he finds purpose in his projects if it gets to help other people.
"That's one of the main reasons kung bakit bine-bless 'yung isang tao with blessings, to share.
“It's about giving back to the people who are in need.
"That's really my advocacy ever since I started, all of the things I'm doing, nagkakaroon siya ng purpose kapag nakakatulong ako sa iba through the works that I do, for the network, for myself, and for the audiences of GMA Kapuso Network," he said.
The proceeds that the actor donated will go through Kapuso Foundation's Rebuild Marawi project which aims to rebuild schools in the region.
Alden related, "I'm also for education, 'yun na lang sana ang huwag natin i-deprive sa mga bata because education can't be stolen from you.
“It's knowledge na pwedeng makapagpabago sa buhay nila 'pag lumaki sila, tumanda sila in the near future.
"I'm really secured and assured that the funds we're donating is going to charity and going to the ones in need talaga like the schools and other projects of the Kapuso Foundation."
Kapuso Foundation founder and ambassador Mel Tiangco praised Alden for his help.
"Kaya 'yang batang 'yan ay masuwerte. Kita mo? Tuloy-tuloy ang kaniyang career, hindi tinitigilan ng Panginoon na bine-bless nang bine-bless siya. That's why.
"Hindi niya nakakalimutan 'yung pay forward, hindi niya nakakalimutang mag-share, hindi niya nakakalimutan 'yung mga nangangailangan.
"Kaya si Alden, tingnan mo lang 'yung mukha ng batang 'yan, makikita mo. Yung aura niya iba, it's because he's a good person at heart."
