Listen to Lights For Learning as they install lights into two communities in the Philippines.

Hear how the team came to being there and why their work was so valuable to the Filipino people. We hear from members of the team, of Gawad Kalinga and of the local Couples For Christ group responsible for the village.

Gawad Kalinga's Emma Randall and Vincent Rivera speak to us about the movement's impact on Peace Village and its beneficiaries' access to education.

We hear from the Mayor of Bacolod City, Evelio Leonardia and we hear how the work of Lights For Learning is contributing to the area.
