Leni-Kiko tandem addresses supporters and non-supporters during their thanksgiving rally speech at Ateneo De Manila University. Pangilinan was the first to address the public, he began by thanking the different organizations that helped build their campaign, reiterating that the fight for truth and justice is not yet finished and to "transform grief into revolutionary courage. 

 

Robredo starts by acknowledging the "kakampinks" feeling and tells then to give themselves the time to grieve and asks them that even after this campaign period that they are still willing to continue serving their communities. The duo assures supporters that they are looking into the election results with professionals and are verifying the results and accepting whatever results are going to be.

 

 Robredo also reassures the people that she will continue to provide aid to people in need and that the services the OVP provided during her term will not stop at the end of her term because she will be the head of a new Angat Buhay NGO.

 

The momentum from the campaign period built an impressive network that is set to make the organization, named after the anti-poverty program of the OVP. 

 

Admittedly, the program under the OVP was very limited with its resources in terms of funding and machinery but because of the network, the Leni - Kiko campaign was able to culminate the NGO is now aiming to make the biggest network of volunteers in the history of the Philippines after her term as vice president in the 30th of July.
