A “Badjao Girl” named Rita Gabiola from Quezon Province had gone viral a few weeks ago because of her natural beauty as seen in her photos as she was begging in the streets with her 2-year old sister. The photos were taken by photographer Topher Quinto Burgos during the Pahiyas Festival in Lucban, Quezon.
Now, ABS-CBN Lingkod Kapamilya and “Rated K”, a magazine show hosted by Korina Sanchez, has given the “Badjao Girl” a scholarship, for her dream of becoming a teacher to help others.
Rita is the second among six children. His father is a fisherman while his mother is a housewife. His father, Danny works hard to send Rita to school to finish her studies despite of the difficulties they experienced.
Rita also said some people have asked to take pictures of her since her pictures went viral.
