After six years, PUP REVO returns — and this time, its stage is set for the children. The Polytechnic University of the Philippines Communication Society (PUP CommSoc) is mounting PUP REVO 2026, one of the university's largest post-pandemic benefit concerts, with proceeds going directly to child protection programs run by ABS-CBN Foundation Bantay Bata 163 and World Vision Philippines.   A student-led initiative continuing PUP CommSoc's tradition of using creative platforms for grassroots advocacy, PUP REVO 2026 arrives at a critical moment.
