Caloocan, Metro Manila

Having a bike in my life has helped me everyday as a commuter and as an online seller. During the time that COVID-19 spread, there were different waves of lockdowns happening in the Philippines. I work as an online seller for food and had a hard time finding a way to fulfil the orders that were far away from me. My life changed when a bike was donated to me. I was able to deliver all of the food orders no matter how far. The bike has greatly helped with my livelihood for me and my family. My health has improved as well from having to catch my breath while climbing a few stairs!
