Relief Food Packs for Quake-Hit Families

Relief Food Packs for Quake-Hit Families

Earlier today, Governor Dr. Melchor Daguines Diclas sent relief food packs through the Provincial Response Team and the Office of the Provincial Social Welfare and Development Office to the towns of Kabayan and Atok for the families reported to have been affected by the strong earthquake that hit Luzon yesterday morning, July 27.
 
Last month, Governor Diclas ordered the release of relief goods to the different municipalities as part of an early prepositioning of relief supplies in preparation for calamities. This is to provide constituents closer and easy access to government assistance in times of disasters. In case of supply shortage, the Provincial Government is set to augment the MLGUs’ resources.
