'HOLD ON TO YOUR DREAMS AND MAKE THEM COUNT' 💙 Gifted with an athletic scholarship while playing for Ateneo, volleyball star Bea de Leon gives back by awarding a deserving fan a scholarship to her ‘dream school.’ OBF
MANILA, Philippines – One of Bea de Leon’s avid fans just found another reason to admire her favorite volleyball player.
Unfortunately, Retuta didn’t get a scholarship to her “dream school” due to limited slots. She somewhat accepted her fate, but still felt grateful and shared it on social media. The former Ateneo standout recalled that back in 2014, she was reluctant to accept an athletic scholarship. But she then thought the opportunity might also give her a chance to give back.
It was there the fan and the idol met face-to-face for the first time, months after De Leon sent the student a Twitter direct message sharing the good news.
