Netizen Roswel Placigo shared these photos of a man he saw in Palo Market, Leyte.
“Ito po yung isang tatay na nag-aayos ng kanyang bike. Kung mayron po kayong maitutulong. Sana po matulungan niyo po siya,” he said in his Facebook post on Monday. 📷 Roswel Placigo | @JMRiveraINQ
@JMRiveraINQ Placigo’s post easily went viral as netizens continue to express their support and desire to help the man in the photo.
He then decided to look for the man who he found out to be Jhonny P. Cuevas, a 52-year-old resident of Brgy. 39 Calvary Hill in Tacloban City.
@JMRiveraINQ Cuevas earns through repairing broken umbrellas in Palo and Tanuan Leyte.
With the help of netizens and a group of bikers, Placigo said they will be able to give “Tatay Johnny” a new bike today. #BeAnINQUIRER | @JMRiveraINQ
