THE LOCAL government of Zamboanga continues rolling out its financial assistance for Covid-19 survivors to help them and their family during this time of the pandemic.
Mayor Beng Climaco recently led the distribution of aid in the western coast. The pay-out was facilitated by the City Social Welfare and Development Office and the City Treasurer’s Office.
The distribution of the
financial aid was witnessed by Councilors Pinpin Pareja, Cesar Jimenez and Bong
Atilano, among other officials and barangay leaders. The aid is part of the supplemental
budget approved by the City Council.
Climaco said the Covid-19 survivors received up to P5,000 each. “Those who experienced moderate to mild Covid-19 are entitled to P3,000 each while those who suffered severe infection will get P5, 000 each. This is in line with our thrust on helping the most who suffered the brunt of the Covid-19 pandemic. Ayuda, comida y busca la vida este tiempo de pandemia,” she said.
The mayor said at least 124 Covid-19
survivors received financial aid. (Zamboanga Post)
