Fresh from her victory in Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0, Lella Ford opened up about how she plans to use her ₱1-million grand prize.

In an exclusive interview with PUSH ABS-CBN, Lella revealed that she intends to donate half of her winnings to charity, particularly to support the deaf community — a cause close to her heart after their initiative inside the PBB house.

“Half of that, donate po talaga. Mayroon po kami ginawa inside PBB, yung Kakamay Movement. Tumulong po kami sa deaf community, spread awareness po and natuto rin po kami paano mag-FSL (Filipino Sign Language) so doon po gusto ko rin spend money ko doon. Ang dami pong nangangailangan sa ating bansa kaya I want to help the deaf community and other communities as well,” Lella shared.

The Kapamilya star said their experience inside Bahay ni Kuya opened her eyes to the needs of marginalized groups, especially the deaf community, and inspired her to continue the advocacy beyond the show.

Meanwhile, in a report aired on 24 Oras Weekend, Kapuso actress Caprice Cayetano — who was also named Big Winner — shared similar sentiments about giving back. She said part of her prize money will be saved for her future, while a significant portion will go to charity.

“Gusto ko rin po i-save and makatulong din po sa mga tao na nangangailangan din nun,” Caprice said.

Caprice added that she is considering donating to the Little Ark Foundation, which supports underprivileged Filipino children battling serious illnesses.

During the show’s Big Night, Lella and Caprice were both hailed as Big Winners. Heath Jornales and Krystal Mejes were named Second Big Placers, Ashley Sarmiento and Joaquin Arce finished in Third Place, while Princess Aliyah and Miguel Vergara secured Fourth Place.

Pinoy Big Brother is a reality television program where housemates live together inside the famous “Bahay ni Kuya,” completing weekly tasks and facing various challenges while being monitored around the clock. The ultimate winner is determined through a combination of performance inside the house and public votes. Since its launch in the Philippines, the franchise has served as a platform for numerous celebrities who later became household names, including Kim Chiu, Gerald Anderson, and Sam Milby.
