Star Magic artist Donny Pangilinan is earning widespread praise on social media after quietly extending help to fire victims in a local barangay.
A netizen named Kevin Mendoza took to X (formerly Twitter) to share how the Kapamilya actor showed genuine concern for families who lost their homes in a recent fire.
“Big shoutout kay @donnypangilinan! Grabe, our barangay is facing a really tough time ngayon dahil sa sunog, some families literally lost everything, as in naabo ang bahay,” Mendoza posted.
He further emphasized Donny’s sincerity: “Pero Donny came through, walang kaartehan, walang campaign, just pure malasakit.”
Donny not only donated food and water but also brought brand new mattress foams for the victims.
“He personally brought so many new foams para may maayos na higaan ang mga biktima, and also loads of essentials for their personal needs,” Mendoza shared.

The netizen couldn’t help but admire Donny’s genuine compassion, adding, “Sobrang genuine niya, and you can really feel na bukal sa puso yung tulong. Thank you so much, Donny. God bless your golden heart!”
In another post by Rommel Marudo Rasi on Facebook, photos of Donny handing out mattress foams and sacks of rice were shared, further confirming his low-profile relief efforts. Grateful beneficiaries from the barangay also expressed their heartfelt thanks for his generosity.
Many netizens commended Donny for his selfless actions, noting how he continues to quietly help out during disasters without publicizing his efforts.
This isn’t the first time Donny has stepped up during times of crisis. Over the years, he has often participated in volunteer activities, usually revealed only through the posts of those he helped, as he prefers to keep his philanthropy away from the spotlight.
Despite his busy schedule—currently appearing as a judge on ‘Pilipinas Got Talent’—Donny continues to find time to make a difference in people’s lives.
