MANILA, Philippines — Cash relief and livelihood assistance are being provided to Mary Jane Veloso and her family, according to the Department of Social Welfare and Development.

The DSWD provided P30,000 in cash to Veloso and her parents.

Veloso’s two sons will receive P20,000 today.

During an assessment for the Sustainable Livelihood Program, Veloso expressed interest in putting up a sari-sari store at their home as a potential source of livelihood.
