Las Piñas sustains seniors’ pay-out pension

The local government of Las Piñas — through the City Social Welfare and Development Office (CSWDO) — continues its payout of social pensions for senior citizens.

The payout, which was held on Wednesday at the Almanza Uno Covered Court, catered to 1,240 senior citizens from Barangays Talon Tres, Almanza Uno and Pilar, providing vital financial aid to support their daily needs.

Beneficiaries from Almanza Uno totaled 433, while 424 came from Talon Tres and 383 from Pilar.

Each recipient received P6,000, representing their social pension for the second half of the year, from July to December. The funds were allocated by the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) as part of the national government’s efforts to assist indigent senior citizens.

City representatives also ensured the smooth delivery of financial assistance, engaging with the beneficiaries to address any concerns and streamline the process.

This initiative underscores the city’s commitment to recognizing the contributions of senior citizens and providing meaningful support to improve their quality of life.

Through its collaboration with the DSWD, the city government continues to implement programs focused on addressing the needs of vulnerable groups.

Efforts such as the pension payout reflect the administration’s dedication to creating an inclusive and supportive environment for its elderly residents.
