Former University of the Philippines women’s team volleyball player Jed Montero (Rebecca Gail Montero) graces the July 2011 issue of FHM – the one with the Eula Valdes cover.

Her UAAP volleyball days were cut short due to an ankle injury.

Jed was also a candidate for the FHM 100 Sexiest Women edition. Here’s a sneak peek of the interview in the July 2011 issue of FHM that features Jed Montero, taken from www.fhm.com.ph site:

While most people are busy shopping for Crocs, not everyone knows that part of the proceeds goes to Habitat for Humanity Philippines (HFHP), a non-profit Christian ministry working to help build responsible and self-reliant communities by enabling Filipino families in need to acquire affordable, decent, and durable homes. The P180,000 donation will be sufficient to build 2 homes for the less fortunate.

This is the first time Crocs has chosen a non-profit organization to benefit from their yearly Megasale event. According to Crocs, they will be doing this yearly now. So the next time you buy a pair of expensive Crocs, at least now you know that they donate part of their profits to give back to the community.

The 2011 Crocs Megsale is currently happening at the NBC Tent near Bonifacio High Street in Taguig. The Crocs Megasale will run from June 9-12 only, 10:00am to 8:00pm. You can get anywhere from 30% to as much as 90% off on selected Crocs models.
