Bong Go provides aid to communities in Tabaco City, Albay

Sen. Bong Go reassured struggling communities of his commitment to help them recover and build back better amid various crises and the ongoing pandemic.

During a two-day relief operation organized in Tabaco City, Albay on 3 to 4 November, the senator's team provided snacks, masks and shirts to 1,027 residents at Brgy. Tagas Happy Homes Subdivision.

They also gave away cellular phones, bicycles, shoes, and balls for basketball and volleyball to select recipients.

Meanwhile, the Department of Social Welfare and Development extended financial assistance to the residents.

"Mga kababayan, alam naming mahirap ang panahon ngayon. Maraming negosyo ang nagsara at dahil dito, maraming Pilipino ang nawalan ng trabaho. Kaya kailangan natin magtulungan, magbayanihan at magmalasakit sa ating kapwa," Go said in his video message.

"Huwag kayong mag-alala. Ginagawa ng gobyerno ang lahat upang i-balanse ang kalusugan ng bayan at ang pangangailangan ninyong magtrabaho para sa inyong mga pamilya," he reassured.
