Isang Pagpupugay sa ating mga Filipino Social Workers🇵🇭❤️

Sa bawat pamilyang bumabangon mula sa sakuna, batang nangangailangan ng proteksyon at mga kababayang nangangailangan ng gabay at suporta, naroon ang ating mga social worker. Buong puso silang naglilingkod at umaalalay sa mga Pilipinong dumaranas ng iba’t ibang hamon sa buhay, lalo na sa panahon ng krisis at iba pang pagsubok.

Ngayong Filipino Social Workers Day, kinikilala natin ang mahalagang papel nila sa pagsusulong ng kapakanan at karapatan ng bawat mamamayan. Sa pamamagitan ng kanilang dedikasyon, malasakit at propesyonalismo, patuloy silang nagiging daan para maihatid ang tulong at serbisyong kailangan ng mga higit na nangangailangan.

Maraming salamat sa inyong katatagan at tapat na paglilingkod. Kayo ay tunay na inspirasyon at mahalagang katuwang sa pagbuo ng isang mas makatao at mapagkalingang lipunan.

Mabuhay ang mga Social Workers. Mabuhay ang ating mga Angels in Red Vests!

❤️
