A project initiated by Fitness and MMA coaches Erwin Tagure and Alfred Luciap Jr. the event also made the participants realized the importance of healthy lifestyle and the essence of unity and sharing.

“We extend our help to fellow Cordillerans in our home country. But aside from that, this event also serves as an eye opener for us working abroad on the importance of healthy lifestyle,” Tagure said.

Also, included as beneficiaries for the Boxing Boot Camp for a cause are the orphaned children who lost their parents in the calamity.
