Rafael Nadal, the world tennis legend, once again moved fans when he announced that he would donate 15 million USD and sponsorship deals worth tens of millions of USD to the “Onward Home” relief center in Metro Manila, Philippines. This project aims to build 150 houses and provide 300 beds for the homeless after the fierce typhoon.

In an emotional speech, Nadal shared that he had witnessed the pain of people without shelter in the cold, and that motivated him to take action. He said: “Since I was a child, I promised that I would not let anyone sleep on the streets. Now is the time to make that promise come true.”
Rafael Nadal’s actions quickly attracted the attention of international media. Not only because of the huge amount of money donated, but also because of the strong humanitarian spirit he conveyed. In an era where fame and materialism often overshadow compassion, Nadal has reminded the world that the human heart is still the greatest source of energy.
The “Onward Home” center was established to support victims severely affected by natural disasters in the Philippines. With Nadal’s contribution, this project is expected to start in the near future, bringing new hope to hundreds of families who lost their homes after the typhoon.

Nadal’s choice of the Philippines – a country often affected by natural disasters – also shows his global vision. This is not the first time Nadal has carried out international relief activities. Previously, he supported the reconstruction of Majorca after floods and donated to many humanitarian programs in Africa.
