Emille Joson tells us why:

"Well my big sisters perfectly did a good job in putting up  Alaga Producers Cooperative kasi I began to have my ways also to help people.It's quite uplifting to give them suggestions that would somehow have that lasting impact on their lives especially for the new generation.  Actually the reason why I went to film school is be able to tell stories with representations that are barely seen on television. Growing up kasi aside sa pangarap ko sya, may goal din ako. So yung pagtulong ng family ko sa iba, nakadagdag siya for me. Because when I was  a  freshman sa high school in  Dear Jesus Montessori School in Pulilan Bulacan, I was being bullied by my classmate.Somehow kahit nagpalit na ng name iyong school, iyong  trauma, pati iyon character assasination, pain and sleepless crying nights na naranasan ko, nag-linger. Masakit kasi the founders even didn't do anything to stop it. So nagtransfer na lang ako ng school. From then on sabi ko tutulong ako sa mga tao lalo na sa mga Bully victims. Yet I'm thankful somehow I think it happens for a reason cause now I'm very picky who to trust especially now that I'm a public figure everytime someone raining on my parade. Sanay na ko sa clapback, " aniya.
