As part of its grassroots development program, the Philippine Marine Corps will be staging the annual Football for Peace (FFP) from April 23 to 29 in Metro Manila.

This year, the Marines have partnered with One Meralco Foundation (OMF) and Loyola Meralco Sparks (LMS) FC. The advocacy aims to instill the peace-loving values of sportsmanship, camaraderie, teamwork and discipline among children particularly those residing in conflict areas in Mindanao. “We made this project aspirational. We want the kids get to play as a way to better themselves,” said Rookie Nagtalon, co-founder of FFP.
