It is in this light that the Kristohanong Katilingban sa Pagpakabana Social Involvement Office (KKP-SIO) in its 25 years of leading Xavier University to become a community that is responsive to the needs of society inspired by Ignatian Advocacy of promoting “Faith that does Justice”, has been faithful in its mission of promoting nationalism among its students and faculty members through actual community engagements that serves as concrete expression of love for one’s country.
