The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) has provided financial aid to 2,970 farm workers in Pampanga as part of the government services that President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. brought to the Kapampangans on Friday (September 19).
DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian joined the Chief Executive at the ceremonial turnover of the financial aid to the 10 farmer-beneficiaries who received Php10,000 each.
The DSWD aid, alongside the services brought by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), is part of the Marcos administration’s continuous support to agricultural communities by helping them strengthen their livelihoods and honoring their role in nation-building.
Other cabinet officials who accompanied President Marcos at the distribution activity dubbed ‘Handog sa Titulo Program and Distribution of Assistance’ at the Bren Z. Guiao Convention Center in the City of San Fernando were Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Secretary Vince Dizon and DENR Secretary Raphael Lotilla.
Pampanga Governor Lilia “Nanay” Pineda and Vice Governor Dennis “Delta” Pineda were also present as well as DSWD Asst. Secretary Irene Dumlao and DSWD Field Office 3 – Central Luzon Director Venus Rebuldela. (LSJ)
