The campaign aims to improve the educational environment for children in the area, according to LIG Nex1.
The five-day visit also included a meal with Filipino war veterans and their family members to express gratitude for their service. Around 50 veterans and family members gathered for the event.
Since last year, LIG Nex1 has been carrying out volunteer work to improve education in the Philippines and host fundraisers and events for Filipino war veterans. It plans to continue its activities honoring ally countries that offered help during the Korean War.
