Together with Unilever, they promoted the importance of washing hands with soap as an effective way to prevent diseases in Laguna, Pampanga, Metro Manila, Cebu, and Boracay. The nationwide campaign reached over 14,000 people. “Last year, we were overwhelmed with the positive feedback from our celebration that we decided to push for bigger and better events this year.
