Former League of Municipalities of the Philippines President Luis “Chavit” Singson, alongside his daughter, Congresswoman Richelle Singson of the Ako Ilocano Ako Partylist, brought a unique outreach initiative to Quezon City Jail in Payatas on Saturday.

The father-daughter duo treated inmates to hot meals through their “mobile kitchen” and provided medical care via a mobile hospital.

Persons Deprived of Liberty (PDLs), along with their visiting family members, enjoyed a special meal of arroz caldo prepared by the mobile kitchen. The warm meal fostered a moment of togetherness as families sat and ate alongside the PDLs.

In addition to the meals, many inmates took advantage of free medical check-ups and consultations offered by doctors and healthcare workers brought in by the Singsons for the day’s medical mission.

The Quezon City Jail currently holds 4,200 detainees — far below its maximum capacity of 12,000, according to the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology. The inmates are serving sentences for various crimes.
