Outgoing Vice President Leni Robredo said Tuesday she would launch her anti-poverty NGO Angat Buhay with a volunteer event on her first day as a private citizen.

The two-day event starts in July 1 in Quezon City, Robredo said, seeking to harness the same spirit of volunteerism that powered her presidential campaign. Those who want to join the event in person can sign up online.
