THE Int’l WeLoveU Foundation (IWLUF) recently held its annual clean world movement to celebrate May 22 as a clean day, with the theme, “2017 Clean World Movement to Cope with Climate Change.”

Over 80 volunteers represented the local branch in Cebu who cleaned the outskirts of Ouano Ave., Subangdaku, Mandaue City.

A total of 40 sacks and trash bags filled with garbage were gathered from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The foundation was founded in 2001 by chairwoman Zhang Gil-jah in South Korea.

It focuses on serving others by providing volunteer services, such as blood drives, relief operations during disasters, cleanup drives, among other environmental-related initiatives.

“I know that joining our cleanup movement would add awareness to our fellow residents in Mandaue. I hope this could encourage the people to assist the barangay officials in their pursuit to make Subangdaku a better and cleaner place,” said Atty. Charity Fernandez, IWLUF volunteer since 2011.
