Miguel Tanfelix gives back

MANILA, Philippines - Miguel Tanfelix, who played the lead character of the recently-concluded top-rating family drama series Niño, continues to inspire his supporters. Last Sept. 18, the GMA Artist Center star celebrated his birthday in advance with persons with disabilities of Dr. Jose P. Rizal Elementary School in Dasmariñas, Cavite.

Loud cheers and applause welcomed Miguel, who brought along his Niño co-star and good friend Renz Valerio. The special event got even livelier with Tess Bomb as the host. Also present was Miguel’s family who came in full force.

Miguel made every moment count, making sure his fans enjoyed the afternoon celebration. The 16-year-old birthday celebrator presented a song-and-dance number, joined the games, took selfies with the fans and signed autographs.

The kids for their part surprised Miguel with a dance number and both Miguel and Renz joined their performance.

Just as Miguel was about to distribute snacks, he received a phone call from Bianca Umali that brought kilig to their fans because they heard the conversation of both tween stars.

Miguel and Bianca’s loveteam in Niño endeared them to their fans. Both Bianca and Miguel could still be seen on Ismol Family and Sunday All Stars.

The StarStruck Kids alum personally  chose to celebrate his birthday with the special kids of Dr. Jose P. Rizal Elementary School.
