In a simple but touching gesture, members of the Creamline Cool Smashers showed their gratitude to the frontliners battling the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic with a video message posted on their social media accounts.
The 59-second video showed volleyball players led by Alyssa Valdez, Michele Gumabao and Jema Galanza thanking the frontliners for their sacrifices in the fight to prevent the spread of the deadly disease.
“To all our frontliners, maraming salamat po sa inyong sakripisyo,” said Valdez.
Other members took turns in delivering their messages, which says: “At sa patuloy ninyong serbisyo sa ating bansa. Reminding everyone na sana makiisa tayo para sa isa’t isa.”
The volleyball players also reminded the public about the basic preventive measures such as washing hands properly, staying indoors unless necessary and practicing social distancing.
“Tulung-tulong po tayo para mas mapabilis ang paglaban sa COVID-19,” the message said.
“At sa ating mga kababayan, tayo ay magkaisa… May God bless and guide as all. Araw-araw, good vibes.”
The video message was posted on Valdez’ official Twitter account late Friday and has so far reached 18,000 views and 3,000 likes.
“Nakikiisa kaming mga Creamline Cool Smashers sa laban sa COVID-19!” Valdez wrote along with the video.
“Saludo kami sa lahat ng ating mga frontliners! Maraming maraming salamat po. Kayo ang tunay na MVP! #CreamlineGoodVibes.”
A few days ago, Valdez was seen helping the Ravena family pack meals to be distributed for the patrolling soldiers in Cainta, Rizal.
The whole Luzon region is under Enhanced Community Quarantine to make sure everybody, especially the young ones, to stay at their homes.
