The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines — Sen. Bong Go led a relief operation for fire victims in Cavite City on Wednesday.

“Magtulungan lang po tayo at kilala po ang Pilipino sa pagtutulungan. Huwag po kayong mawalan ng pagasa. Nandito naman po ang gobyerno. Marami po tayong mga kaibigan na gusto rin pong makatulong sa inyo. Pangalagaan po natin ang buhay ng bawat isa dahil bawat bahay na nasusunog, nadadamay po ang kapitbahay. Kaya ingat po tayo,” he said.

Go and his team distributed grocery packs, vitamins, face masks, snacks and shirts to 767 fire victims at the Ladislao Diwa Elementary School.

The senator also gave away bicycles, mobile phones, shoes, bags, watches and balls for basketball and volleyball to select recipients.

The office of Sen. Cynthia Villar also extended assistance to fire victims.

The Department of Social Welfare and Development granted financial assistance while the National Housing Authority assessed the needs of fire victims who may qualify for housing assistance.

The Department of Trade and Industry conducted an on-site assessment for possible livelihood assistance to qualified recipients.
