LG Life’s Good Library On The Go
The mobile library will tour around the seven (7) barangays in Nagcarlan, Laguna namely Lawaguin, Bunga, Balayong, Sabang, Alumbrado, Talahib and Sulsuguin to reach children living in poor communities that have limited access to basic education and organized learning.
“This mobile library exemplifies our commitment to education and accessibility, bringing books and learning resources directly to underserved communities, aiming to inspire a love for reading and promote immersive, lifelong learning among children. This reflects our unwavering promise to empower individuals and enrich their futures” said LG Philippines Managing Director, Mr. Nakhyun Seong during his opening remarks. Mr. Seong also encouraged the children through a pinky promise to make reading a habit.
During the event, LG Ambassador, Ms. Charlene Aguilar also addressed the audience during the turnover and awarding. “This mobile library is more than just a collection of books; it is a beacon of hope and learning. Through LG’s help, beyond just books, children in our community will now have the opportunity to see the world through the LG TV, with the LG XL7S Speaker making learning an immersive and interactive experience. This enhancement will allow the kids to provide a richer, and more diverse educational journey.”
LG provided Ms. Charlene Aguilar opportunities for learning by funding the Library on the Go TV and speaker to enhance learning, as well as financial support for the vehicle, books, and materials. With LG’s support, children can now enjoy immersive learning experiences. This support will ensure we can reach and educate children in underserved communities effectively.
