- Hey guys,
I know this is very different from what i usually do, but i really wanted to do more this 2016. We will start creating and producing documentary videos, whether long or short, documenting stories that are speak of our present or raise awareness and hopefully serve as time capsules for future generations.
Here is my first video in collaboration with the good hearted people of Kiehl's Philippines.

It is a well-known fact all over the world that Kiehl’s is a company committed to giving back. With philanthropy ingrained in the brand’s DNA, the very experience of shopping at Kiehl’s is defined by the need to take care of one’s skin, as well as to support its multiple charitable initiatives. “ Kiehl’s Gives” is the global platform that the company uses to push forth its key altruistic endeavors: the fight against HIV/AIDS to children’s causes, and, finally, the environment. A fervent commitment established by its founding family, the “Mission of Kiehl’s ”is to nurture the communities in which it serves its patrons.
Annually, Kiehl’s raises funds and awareness for its philanthropic pillars by partnering with influential figures in society-including the likes of Brad Pitt, Alicia Keys, Julianne Moore, and Pharrell Williams, among many others- to develop programs and create limited edition products that benefit charitable organizations around the world.
The beginning of any Kiehl’s collaboration is simple: It starts with a common vision to support community-building initiatives. It is this shared desire to give back that the brand and its influencers act upon, forging real partnerships to give back to the society together.

Im Syrian living in the Philippines for 5 years now. I feel bad seeing people suffer from poverty. God bless them.
@Manzoor Hekmatyar they are poor
@@xyrylladacureg9279 Girl, look at yourself. You look like a trash
@Manzoor Hekmatyar whoever you are. You're way more disgusting. You shouldn't paint a picture with one culture. Everyone is different. Doesn't mean you met one Filipino with a disgusting attitude you'll conclude that everyone is the same.
Wow!! That's so sad BUT!!! Why I saw too many Filipino comments about their's country are better than every country on world???
Manzoor Hekmatyar as what I saw and red it is you who are what you said, you know the word projection? It really defines your personality,
Documentary is an eye opener. This is not a charity program. Giving them money or food is not obliged for any journalist or documentarist. But showing the true story with good intentions of the documentarist is enough to give them some pride and hope in what they are doing.
I feel like documentaries like these , should never been told from the mouth of the reporters . I can't .. these people should narrate their own stories and struggle and be front and centre.
But not all people can talk and explain their situation in front of a camera.
Lumaki ako sa Payatas. About 100m yung lapit namin dun sa Smoky Mountain. Back in 2000s, sobrang saya kong lumaki sa lugar na yan, never kong naisip na kawawa kami, believe me, kapag lumaki ka sa payatas, you will be sharp, hinding hindi ka maloloko ng tao, kahit anong hirap, wala lang sa'yo, and once you experience a little convenience, you value it, a small amount of money ay pinapahalagahan mo. When I was a kid, never ako naawa sa kalagayan namin. Not until I go to college. College life killed my confidence, I realized how poor we are. Yun din siguro yung dahilan ng mga kababata ko kaya yung iba hindi na lumabas sa comfort zone nila. Kaya marami sa mga tagapayatas ay hindi na nangarap ng mataas. Kasi konting ginhawa lang, masaya na sila. Sa tingin ko maganda yun pero sayang. Sana magkaroon ng program samin na mag-encourage sa mga kabataan mangarap. Don't just give donations, hindi sila matuto niyan.
By the way, I enjoy watching this video.
quality stuff brotha!
Thanks Wil
+Erwan Heussaff Much respect to you for being a voice for the voiceless. It takes courage and belief to tread on subjects that many would much rather turn a blind eye to. Writing to you from the US, yes you have a far reaching audience, and really would appreciate your thoughts on docos such as "Earthlings", "Cowspiracy" and "Forks Over Knives". Great work and keep it up!
you are starting to make a difference here erwan..
What a useful way to use your celebrity status to create awareness!!!
This makes me sad. 😢
Be the voice of the voiceless. Good job erwan. That's why I dont regret why I subscribed your channel. Going there is not easy, you might get sick because of the surroundings but you chose to go and documented the area.
Erwan just earned my respect to be there and see things real time is brave considering your social status. More videos of these please.
Watching this short video, I feel like these people are stronger then the people living in the America or other countries with normal lives... Lord please forgive me if im not great full for what I have.. GOD bless the poor.
A very heart wrenching video. I grew up with abundance of food at the table (I am classified as obese but currently working on it). Slept in air-conditioned room almost everyday (we had times we just settle for electric fan due to rising electric bill costs) and studied in a prestigious school up until college (I don't know how my parents paid for it but know we are deep in debt that time). Yes, these issues are very open and rampant in my academic years but after that...I turned a blind eye because I was also dealing problems of my own, not knowing that their problems are like ten or hundred folds of what I am experiencing right now.
I somehow disagree kay ate Josie because based on my pov, living in provincial areas is a better option than living in Payatas. First of all, they can plant crops and other kinds of vegetables for them to eat, also, there are public schools den naman sa province eh, instead of Payatas na pinagtityagaan nila yung pagpag baka magkasakit pa sila...God bless these people.
Sa province mas maayus ang buhay magtanim kalang ng mga food crops makaka survived ka. Bonus if may mga puno ng mga namumungang prutas like Indian Mango, and buko Bayabas, papaya sama mo pa Saging.
You're a brave soul, man! Thank you for exploring this side of the world and sharing with us!
Eye opener for us all and be thankful of what we have.. Bless u Erwan.
Thanks Erwan for this documentary. I have 2 kids born in the US and I showed this to them so they will appreciate what they have and not take things for granted. I really appreciate it.
Right on Erwan, Thanks for shining the light. I'm happy to be present and follow you through your growth
You have a gift erwan. I hope you continue to shine the light on issues like these...
Good job for doing this, such an extra mile for filipinos.i really hope change will someday come to their lives. Thanks Erwan for showing this and making us realize how lucky we are. I hope many of public figures like you could do this to solidify this movement against poverty and also from our fellow citizens. This made me more excited for our charity event this coming Nov 24 for the homeless and abandoned children in San Juan. Kudos to you!
😢😢 makes me think, i take a lot of things for granted, i always complain about my life.... while all these people eat leftover foods 😔 nobody deserves to live a life like this...
Im so happy you made this video for the world to see...I hope our new government finds solutions to combat these issues. I hope to see more videos like this. Good job Erwan.
I have been experiences living in payatas for 2 mos. and I must say that, those 2mos of my life was the best part of me. when you live there you won't hear any judgemental or degrading from other people cause they are all fair to each other. There I see the bigger picture of life. that I never seen. There I realize how important education is. Living there is simple and wonderful I must say, cause you dont have to think of what phone you need just to feel belong. If you get me. I really love that place caus that taught me a lot that what I am now, it's because people there made me realize a lot of things.
Jassmin Co sorry but I find what you say hard to believe all you did is summarize the video in words.
You are lying .lol
This place is neither fitted for human dwellng nor even in making a living,, so let's rather help them find ways to leave that miserable place than showing them any sign of our approval to their justifications of keeping themselves there.If wild animals can survive in the jungle simply with the gifts of nature, how much more to man who was gifted with a superior mind.
here's to coming out of your comfort zone, erwan! looking forward to more quality content. keep it up.
i was crying while watching this documentary. I wish officials from the government would not just mention of supporting the poor but take action and use their power to liberate these people from poverty
This video made me realize how lucky I am that i could eat three times a day and go to school. I hope their situation be better someday, I pray that politician will open their eyes.
How can one not be touched by this? Compassion is what makes us human. Definitely worth sharing. Good job mate.
I 😍 your content Erwan. Just came across this one and I am floored. For me, you are a valid influencer and I hope there's more of this in your channel. Don't dabble, don't just dip your toes in social issues. The best content is always the immersive ones.
Thanks for putting this together, Erwan. I just moved from 25 years living in the excess world of New York City to Jakarta/Bandung in Indonesia, and this documentary is so hard to watch because the issue is so real and often times ignored due to the sheer overwhelming "real-ness" of it all that most of us just feel helpless to feel that we can make a difference. However, my problems ARE NOTHING compared to what these people face everyday. Thank you Erwan -- I am inspired.
It broke my heart watching this😰😰😪 Thanks Erwan for making this video..a lot of people are complaining about their life and jobs but look at those people who are struggling to make a living..
it is nice that you make this kind of videos from time to time since you influence people in a positive way, you bring awareness not only to the Filipino people but also to everyone who watch your content, you could be their voice and seek help so that NGO's and charity organizations could reach and help the poorest of the poor of metro manila.
Such an underrated piece, Sir. I had to stop the videos halfway just to stop myself for almost crying. It's just plain sad.
wow erwhan this is something really moving. you are one of the respected vlogger i follow and always excited if you release new video. you only not tackle about food, travel, landscape, and now here it is.. keep it up and good luck bro. two thumbs up!
Very good coverage. I commend you for your awareness and sense of maturity and making your videos with purpose and meaning. We are in Canada and it made us see the hardships that still exist in our native land. What a humbling action👌
Good job, kuya Erwan. This is truly heartbreaking but this is also what's really happening to the our people. Hopefully a lot of people will be able to see this so we can overcome this problem together.
This channel is my #1 show on UA-cam
Watched this just by now and this documentary made me cry. A lesson, indeed! Thank you for sharing this
Just now found this video. Valuable content. Thank you for putting time in to this issue
it's 2020 and i'm rewatching this for the nth time. i hope you can make videos like this again once this pandemic ends. kudos to you and your team for making not only good quality of videos but also providing your viewers with a lot of information. Godbless you andnyour family!
Well done for showing the poor side of the Philippines its good to see both rich and poor sides makes you appriciate what you have it breaks my heart watching so sad God bless all the poor people around the world! :( You really are such a nice guy, I admire you for making this documentary wish other food Blogger could have the courage to do the same as you! Love from UK 😘
Erwan this is really a good quality documentary. 60 minutes quality pls do more of this. The way u narrate it really went deep!!! Good job sir!!!
This matters. Thanks for sharing. It's important to have and bring awareness to the reality of people's living conditions in Payatas. I may be three years late to the video but I know the issue is probably the same if not worse back home.
Props to you Erwan! I enjoyed watching this documentary of yours! This is real beauty right here, imperfections of the Philippines.
I'm happy you shed a light to these issues. I studied pagpag and its effect on a childs nutritional status back in college and it sure was an eye opening research. I hope the new government finds a way to combat these issues!!!
This video is such an eye-opener. Looking forward to see more of these types of videos in you channel!
@erwanheussaff I'm glad that you're able to used your medium in raising awareness on things like this that needs to be addressed
agree.👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you for making this documentary Erwan! This definitely opens our mind even more to the reality of poverty. You definitely make a lot of sense! Thank you so much for inspiring us to do our share. We'll definitely get ourselves involved! :)
This video humbles me a million folds... God bless the Philippines.
Good one erwan! Glad you made a video like this.
More of this kinds of video sir..thank you for sharing this it made me realize how blessed I am and to give also blessings to others
This is a different side of your channel. I'm glad that your also able to cover this.
It sad to watch this kind of video but it's the reality 😔
You're right about the things you've said on the last part if the vid.
🙏🏼🇵🇭❤️
This is actually more common than thought and occurs all over the world. Its a good reminder of how fortunate we are and how we need to help each other. Thank you.
Here in Payatas, so many people are poor, but sometimes they forget that they are poor, they enjoy life as well..
Good job sir erwan.
Visited PI a month ago for the first time and decided to move there for my creative goals. After watching this, I'm now making it another goal to find ways to help the less fortunate to create jobs or even just making someone smile with a joke. Thanks for this video.
Very well documented! Thanks Erwan for conveying an awareness to others :) Let's help one another.
Great stuff man! We need a million people like you to make a difference!
I hope yes, agree with you Wil, quality videos. Something that would address Erwarty. First time nga Erwan, keep up!! More power.
Hi Erwan! I wish that you could use your influence and connections in spreading voices of these people who are in need of much attention coming from our government or any organizations that have the capacity to help them. Thank you for making something like this.
Heartbreaking. I can’t watch ‘til the end but thanks for sharing and being an eye opener for us all.
im so proud of what you are doing here Erwan! i truly hope with the upcoming administration, they can do something about this. I mean the first and foremost who should be helping these people are the government. They should be able to give them at least sustainable jobs and of course at least a lending hand when it comes to the finance. I mean I'm aware that some countries, they have governments who provide assistance and help, especially to those with disabilities and single parents. They should also give them more access to education, as to some of them suffers from lack of education. I'm praying and hoping that our country will progress more not just in the economic standpoint but also to the people of this country, that they will be given at least what the our government had forgotten to provide.
This should be mandatory watch for rich spoiled brats in western world.
jay1970 So Agree!
You mean it should be mandatory for all government officials to watch and do something about this problem. Why are you blaming other countries for something that the Philippine government is responsible for ...i don’t get it!
Blame your goverment and your people for not lending a hand .
Erwann himself is mighty privileged . he most likely went straight back to a swanky hotel and ate yummy food. Je prends tout ave des pincettes !
i agree. that’s why konyo kids annoys me!
I am happy you shed a light on these issues. I studied the culture and effects of pagpag on the nutritional status of school children back in Baseco. It was such an eye opener and I truly hope that the new government would find a way to combat these issues!
Amazing content. Thank you Erwan for sharing this documentary.
One problem that can be solved is educating these folks about birth control. It's not logical to bring a human into a world that you cannot support. Start there and that will make a difference.
can't. catholic church controls the country
Hijab Hound.... Mind u r language.... Respect Humanity first... U need to learn how to respect Everyone...
Mind u r language..... First learn how to Respect Humanity.....
Exactly! However, most Filipinos don't have a mind of their own. They just follow whatever the church instructs them to do - like puppets. If you can't even feed yourself, why bring a child into this forsaken world?
ii Cherry Bigotry? Obviously, you are referring to yourself, right? Philippines is full of bigots.
It doesn't take rocket science to figure out what's wrong with the country. The major cause of poverty in the Philippines is overpopulation compounded by ignorance and massive corruption. Just imagine if the population is 10 million instead of 103 million. Jobs wouldn't be so much of a problem, right?
I also noticed that most Filipinos are in complete denial of their situation and have the audacity to blame the government for all of their misfortune.
Hungry and no job? Why bring a bunch of children into this world then? The ignorance that the poor Filipino possess astounds me.
I found it in your snapchat account .. and this is the reality of poverty here in our country. Its nice that you and your team had a concern to one of the biggest problem of the Philippines. Its truly a heartbreaking reality. 😔
Thanks Erwan for adding some value to youtube. Learning a lot from your videos.
i 1000% agree when he said that these women are courageous, life is so hard for them yet they choose to live and fight... i also appreciate manang when she said they are still alive because of God's grace, she still have faith after all... and still managed to express her utmost gratitude to God. God bless them, God bless you too Erwan
eyes ballin watchin the whole vid.. made me realized how blessed I am
We are blessed to be able to talk, walk, eat on our own & even breathe. Be thankful for EVERYTHING bc not everyone can do what you can do 🙏🏽
lets aprc8 wat we have and share what we have...and do what we have to do...thanks erwan for this..i wanna see more videos from you...godbless u more
Living in the province is the best for me;;basta masipag kang magtanim di ka mamatay sa gutom.i never liked to live in manila coz to much trafic,air pollution and etc.kaya siguro nagkakasakit mga bata ,,sila ang mas kawawa sa sitwsyon na ganyan.sana matulungan sila.
alfie cabauatan 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

kuya, baka naman kasi iba ang meaning ng happiness mo, sa happiness ng iba. kung sayo po night life ang happiness mo then go lang po, pero di porket yun po opinion mo eh yun na po ang totoo. and parang ang sama naman po na sabihin mo 'tanga' lang ang nakakatagal sa probinsya, we have 81 provinces, so meaning lahat ng mga tao na andun tanga? in fact mas masisipag sila, hindi katulad ng mga taong hindi kayang magtagal dun.
Juan Delacruz tanga ka din. Ako nga sa town proper pero di ako nagnnightlife nasa tao na yan kung paano niya matatawid and magging productive ung araw araw niyang buhay.
Chenibbles we have more than 81 provinces lol
So much respect and admiration to you Man. This is an eye-opener to everyone, people and I tend to complain about life and whatnot but ours are nothing compared to this one. Thank you and God Bless to you and those people.
thank you... i can use this video in my class... full of sense.. full of heart...
Thank you for opening our eyes, kuya Erwan.
Thanks for creating this video. I wish the rich would get together and help fix one area like this at a time and at least provide food for the poor. God bless man.
my problem is nothing compare to them
what a hopeful feeling I've got now thank you erwan
Thanks for producing this video - you are absolutely right - whatever problems I think I have it doesn't even compare to what these people are dealing with - would definitely explore ways to help out in anyway I can...
Wow so much respect Erwan! God bless you
Bless the people of Philippines! 🇵🇭
Love from India 🇮🇳
🙏🏻
Sad seeing this but I know Filipinos are very resilient and always happy despite what is the situation and always find humor... a good reminder that always be thankful and grateful 🙏☝️
excellent job really superb! well written the best one yet im hooked and ill be watching more! cheers!
This video is so hard to watch but it's an eye opener for all of us, specially those who are wealthy and those who are lucky to eat at least 3 times a day. This actually made me realize that i'm lucky because my parents can provide for, not just our needs but also our wants 😔This video made me really sad 😔 Kuya Erwan, i hope to see more videos like this in your channel ☺️
Salamat sa paggawa ng Video na ito. Eye Opener at masasabi kong kapag napanood mo, ibabalik ka sa Lugar kung saan, wala ka ng ibang gagawin kung hindi magpasalamat sa kung anong meron ka.. Mahirap man ang buhay nila, katulad din namjn sa Probinsya. Hindi kailangan ang Sardinas para sa Ngayon kundi ang Edukasyon ng kanilang mga Anak..
thank you erwan!!!ur the man!Godbless you more:)
Super naiyak ako! Lord blesed those people around Payatas, Manila.
I’m eating breakfast while watching this documentary. Now, I am crying! 😭😞
We’re beyond blessed. Tapos nakakareklamo pa tayo, di ba? :((((((
Eye opening documentary Erwan. More videos like this.
Erwann is becoming more like a journalist in this vlog and it suits him very well :)
really 12k views??? this should get million views Erwan you're the best..
What a find, grew up in payatas and proud to be can’t wait to come back and visit soon!
true journalism at its best...
thanks for sharing
Life goes on, strive for something better and stable. Looking forward that all issues like this will fall into right place...in the future. It will happen if everyone will unselfishly create urgency and follow what is right.
Great video, Erwan! I want to make documentary videos like this. Thanks for sharing! :)
Well done Erwan! This was very hard to watch but it's a sad reality that needs to be brought to light.
Thanks Justine! I know, hard to come to terms with that it's happening only 6kms away
Erwan, I hope you could post some-like videos about the problems in the Philippines that are being overlooked by the government and society. This video seriously got me teary. I also can't imagine a guy like you who maybe some people thought raised in a well-to-do family and totally a different surrounding could come to this kind of place and explore the unfathomed degree of poverty.
This kind of thing you're doing on UA-cam will inspire people a lot. like they will really be inspire to live their life even though struggles are inevitable. I mean to me, this kind of thing happening in our country is such a heart breaking thing to see. I'm 16 and I wish I could do something for this kind of situation or donate. Keep doing this Erwan, you will motivate lot of Filipinos to strive hard in their life so that they could give a better place for those people out there who are suffering in that kind of situation. =)) Have a greaaaat day! 😉
Thanks erwan to this video my heart break when i see this video hope that the goverment wel see this scavenger people how they are suffering in poverty.
So hard to watch. But beautiful work erwan thanks
+Nicole Policarpio i know :( please share!
Nice vid, hope you can create more of this kind of quality stuff.
Amazing video, great job👍🏼!
God bless you Erwan ur a good guy ane Curtis is so lucky to have you. More power to ur blogs u deserve to have millions subs.
great man with a great heart!
one of my favorite film you did. more vids like this. sana yung talent mo sa pagluluto ay magi rin instrumento para makakain ng malinis at masarap ang mga taong namumuhay sa ganiyang sitwasyon. God bless.
Keep on keeing on, Erwan.
This is really sad to watch, you can see how much they struggle these less fortunate Filipinos, there are so many people almost got everything and yet they are complaining for little things and those rich corrupt government staff should see this as an eye opener. Thank you for sharing this video,
