LG Philippines inaugurated the newest Barangay Tres Cruses Health Center in Tanza, Cavite on November 4, 2025, marking an important milestone for maternal and child healthcare in the community. Led by Dr. Ruth Punzalan, winner of the 2025 LG Ambassador Challenge, the center is part of her “Programa Para sa Alagang Ina at Sanggol” initiative and now offers more consistent and comprehensive services for residents who previously had limited access to medical care.
During the event, Dr. Punzalan shared how the project has transformed their ability to serve residents. She explained that the center can now accommodate up to 10 patients per day, compared to the previous setup where operations were limited to half-day schedules. “I’m deeply grateful to LG for supporting Barangay Tres Cruses through this initiative. Many residents, especially in Quarry and Wellington Subdivision, face challenges accessing health services. With the new health center, we can now help more people each day, support pregnant women and children, and make sure they receive the medicines and vaccines they need. LG’s support truly gives families hope and brings essential services closer to the community,” she said.
The center now provides full maternal care services, including prenatal checkups, safe postpartum support, and counseling for new mothers. Pediatric services have also been strengthened, allowing the center to give essential vaccines, treat common illnesses, and ensure children in Barangay Tres Cruses receive timely medical attention.
The inauguration gathered Dr. Ruth Punzalan along with Kim Kwan Hyun (KFHI), Ann Young Eui of Korea Food for the Hungry International (KFHI), and the dedicated volunteers of the health center — showcasing the strong partnership among the community and LG Philippines.
LG Electronics Philippines Managing Director Mr. Nakhyun Seong praised the initiative and highlighted LG’s commitment to uplifting communities through the LG Ambassador Challenge. “We are proud to support Dr. Punzalan’s mission to improve healthcare access in Barangay Tres Cruses. This health center represents hope, progress, and meaningful change for families in the area,” he said. “At LG Philippines, we believe that innovation must create better lives. Through the LG Ambassador Challenge, projects like this help communities grow stronger and healthier for generations.”
As the Barangay Tres Cruses Health Center begins serving the community, its mission aligns strongly with LG’s belief in empowering people through meaningful innovation. Life’s Good when communities have access to the care and support they need—a belief that continues to drive LG’s support for initiatives that create real, lasting change. By backing Programa para sa Alagang Ina at Sanggol, LG hopes to help build a future where mothers and children in Barangay Tres Cruses live safer, healthier lives, bringing the company’s vision of a better world even closer to reality.
