Bong Go provides support to indigent students in Minalin, Pampanga 

Sen. Bong Go continues his unhampered public service for Filipinos, especially the youth, as he personally provided assistance to indigent students in Minalin, Pampanga on Thursday, 24 November.

Held at Barangay Sta. Rita Covered Court, Go led his team in the distribution of grocery packs, masks, vitamins, shirts, umbrellas, and meals to 593 college student scholars. Additionally, the senator provided cellular phones, shoes, and watches to select beneficiaries.

Go, who chairs the Senate Committee on Sports, likewise gave away bicycles and balls for basketball and volleyball to select students in line with his efforts to encourage the youth to get into sports and stay away from illegal drugs and other vices.

The Department of Social Welfare and Development, meanwhile, provided separate financial educational assistance that the student-scholars may use for their daily necessities.

"Sa mga estudyante, isa lang po ang bilin ko sa inyo, mag-aral po kayong mabuti. Kayo po ang kinabukasan ng bayan na ito. Pangalawa, yan po ang puhunan natin — edukasyon," reminded Go in his speech.

"Nagpapakamatay sa trabaho para mabigay ang nararapat sa anak (at) nagpapakahirap po ang inyong magulang para mapag-aral kayo kaya yan na lang ang ganti niyo sa kanila, ang mag-aral kayo ng mabuti. Yan lang po ang pakiusap ko sa kabataan," he continued.
