Eighty (80) families in Tagoloan, Misamis Oriental received P6,000 each under Emergency Subsidy Program (ESP) of the Department of Social Welfare and Development Field Office 10. This is an implementation of the recently approved Republic Act 11494 or the Bayanihan to Recover as One Act (Bayanihan 2).

These families were affected by the granular lockdown imposed by its local government unit to contain the spread of COVID-19 in the area. The prohibition of going out from their houses were strictly implemented. Reporting for work or selling goods in the market is not possible causing the wage earners and vendors to earn lesser than their expected income.
Per RA 11494, such occurrence will qualify families for the cash subsidy.

The Department of Social Welfare and Development Field Office 10 continues to deliver quality services to its client even during the pandemic. A selfless act from the staff shows dedication and compassion to the duties they are delegated for.
