'Umagang Kay Ganda' Host Anthony Taberna And Wife Rosell Velasco Do Their Share In Helping The Needy With Concerts They Produce

BROADCASTER ANTHONY Taberna (host of “Umagang Kay Ganda” and “Tapatan ni Tunying”) and his beautiful wife Rossel Velasco (a former Kapuso actress who appeared in shows like “Bitoy’s Funniest Videos” and “Love to Love”) are the producers of Martin’s concert for Outbox Media Powerhouse Corporation in which Rossel is the managing director.

“We’re really thankful to Martin for having a big heart at tinanggap niya agad na gawin itong benefit show for the benefit of the Dumagat indigenous tribes in the mountains of Calawis, Antipolo,” says the very pretty Rossel. “We do this annually and in the past years, iba-iba ang beneficiaries na natulungan namin, like the Home for the Aged, indigent patients with heart problems or cancer, both young and old. For the Dumagat natives, we’re going there to personally give them our help. From Antipolo, may two hours of walk pa going up the mountains bago makarating sa village nila. Marami silang request like food, clothes and higit sa lahat, medicines.”

“We really want to thank Martin kasi alam naming busy siya, mahal ang talent fee niya,” says Ka Tunying. “But when he found out na para ito sa mga katutubo, he accepted it right away. He has a big heart talaga.”

The presscon was held at Ka Tunying Cafe in front of GMA-7 on Timog Ave., owned by the Tabernas, with branches on Visayas Ave. and at NAIA Terminal 3. Anthony wants to thank their partners for the concert: Waterfront Hotels and Casinos, Chinese General Hospital, Foton Motors Philippines, Sta.
