PBA player Fran Yu shared his blessings to his community by way of a feeding program in his neighborhood in Tambunting, Manila on Saturday.
About 300 kids benefited from the program of the NorthPort guard, who has been a source of pride for his neighborhood since his days in Letran.

Yu clarified that this activity has long been in the backburner.
“Dapat matagal na naming gagawin ito pero na-busy lang talaga,” shared the soft-spoken playmaker.
He added that plans were hatched long before the recent controversy he found himself in and NorthPort's slump in the PBA Commissioner’s Cup semifinals against Barangay Ginebra.
“Napag-usapan na namin na noong na-draft pa lang ako, gusto na naming magpakain sa mga bata dito sa Tambunting kaya masaya kami na nagawa na namin ng family ko finally,” said Yu.
Yu and the Batang Pier are fighting for survival in the best-of-seven series against Ginebra as they suddenly find themselves down, 0-2, heading to Game Three on Sunday.
