Judy Ann Santos-Agoncillo will share the inspiring stories of four people whose dreams came true because of a popular Facebook page in this Saturday’s (January 30) episode of ABS-CBN’s “Paano Kita Mapasasalamatan.”

The episode will highlight the inspiring journey of writers Ben Totanes, Joyce Pief, Charina Echaluce, and painter Gini Aala, who were able to help their families and share their work with the help of Definitely Filipino, a Facebook page dedicated to covering Filipino issues and followed by 4.6 million people.

Ben, the founder of Definitely Filipino, created the page when he felt homesick while living abroad so that he could share heartfelt stories with other kababayans.

The episode will also share the story of Gini, a painter whose viral Definitely Filipino article helped her earn enough money to pay for her sick mother’s hospital bills.

Thanks to the online page, Joyce, who had been forced to close down her small business, was able to relive her love for writing when she joined the page as a writer-editor.

Joyce’s job was also where she met Charina, an aspiring author who had to prove to her parents that she could survive in the industry and later on joined Definitely Filipino as a writer and released a best-selling novel.
