There's a little hero that has been roaming around Makati and his name is Prince!

He is not like any other superhero who's just here to entertain us with his secret powers — no.
He is here to sell kesong puti to support his loved ones — the kind of power that rescues his family from their daily needs!
Ms. [Analee Rodriguez] (https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153822300291867&set=a.10151308540211867.1073741825.587191866&type=3&theater) revealed his identity on Facebook and asked everyone to support the little hero with a big heart
Ms. Rodriguez met Prince on Friday and called him her 'new friend' on this Facebook post:
Unlike any other superheroes, Prince doesn't fly. He rides the bus everyday at 4 a.m. to reserve his 'spot' beside Amber in Filmore street, Makati City before going to school at 6 a.m.

"**He heads to school from 6 a.m. to 12 p.m. then starts his business from 12noon onwards until he sells the last pack**," wrote Ms. Rodriguez.
Prince sells the *kesong puti* for P120 a pack.
What touched Ms. Rodriguez's and everyone's heart is Prince's dedication to help his family despite the fact that he often misses spending time with his siblings
When Ms. Rodriguez was chatting with Prince, he noticed that her eyes were turning red because she's getting teary-eyed.
"**I was in tears when we're chatting… He asked if my eyes were hurting coz they were turning red. I said the sun was really strong and I think the dust got into my eyes…**"
Currently, Prince's story has been shared more than 20,000 times on Facebook. Here are some of the comments he has received:
Up Dharma Down's vocalist, [Armi Millare] (http://says.com/ph/kulture/watch-armi-millare-recording-a-new-song-for-their-4th-album-weeee), also shared Prince's story on her page with a caption, "Everyday hero. Encourage him by supporting him."
Ms. Rodriguez's post gained more online engagement and (hopefully) support for our little hero as of posting.
Let's support Prince by sharing this story with our friends and buying his kesong puti!
