00:00 Some people are using this as a way to help others.
00:04 From the person who gives clothes to the second-hand goods that can fund programs.
00:12 My report, Sibuan Aquino.
00:14 A few months before Christmas, but those who passed by this store in Edsa Cubauquezon City received early gifts.
00:26 The second-hand clothes that they give out are free for everyone.
00:31 Even if they want to give out a few, they can use only three.
00:34 We want to make them feel that even if it's not Christmas, we will give blessings from God.
00:43 So we will share.
00:45 Riza was not stopped crying.
00:47 The clothes she received, she will bring to Legazpi Albay.
00:51 Thank you very much because you helped people like us who are in need.
00:56 Lola Esperanza is very happy because she can now change her old clothes.
01:01 I can change this.
01:03 I don't have much to buy. This is just food.
01:07 The second-hand goods that are donated by companies, communities, and individuals
01:13 are sold by Caritas Manila to their charity outlets.
01:17 The money they earn is used for their development programs.
01:21 We use this to support our more than 5,000 scholars nationwide,
01:26 Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, so that they can acquire college and voc tech courses.
01:33 The 500 to 1,000 that they call second-hand goods,
01:38 they pay only P75 per bag of second-hand goods from Caritas,
01:44 and this is what they earn for a living.
01:47 According to an anthropologist,
01:49 this charity has been a long-standing tradition among Filipinos.
01:53 Basically, it's a form of reciprocity.
01:57 If you help me, I will help you in return.
02:01 But it has taken on many forms.
02:06 In recent years, we've seen it during disasters.
02:14 Von Aquino reporting for GEM Integrated News.
