“We have a 10-year-old program that deals with the hearts and minds of the youth in the Philippines. We have graduated close to 8,000 campers. What we promise is that those who will attend our program will never be the same again. You may come into the program with different backgrounds but when you graduate from our program, you will be enthusiastic, you will engage in various activities, and you will become leaders of tomorrow,” Aboitiz said.

Kool Adventure Camp, launched in 1999, is one of the programs under RAFI’s Leadership & Citizenship focus area, with program offerings that include youth adventure camps, adventure training and consulting, corporate adventure workshops, land and sea expeditions, urban backpacking, games and initiatives, and trainer’s training, among others.
