(UPDATE) LAWYER Maria Leonor 'Leni' Robredo on Friday launched her volunteer group a day after stepping down as the nation's vice president.

The group, which was known as Angat Buhay during her time as vice president, is now called Angat Pinas, and aims to bring together the individuals and groups from the public and private sectors to help families in the most remote and impoverished towns in the country.
