DSWD XII, PLAB, itinampok ang pag-aani ng apat na sako ng carrots sa Tupi

Tupi, South Cotabato – Sa pamamagitan ng Project LAWA at BINHI, patuloy na sinusuportahan ng Department of Social Welfare and Development Field Office XII (DSWD XII), kasama ang RRP South Cotabato Team, ang mga benepisyaryo ng Project LAWA at BINHI. Kamakailan, nakapag-ani ng apat na sako ng carrots ang Manpower Agri-Fisheries Association sa Site B sa Sitio Matukalon, Barangay Linan, Tupi, South Cotabato.

Sa kabila ng matarik at masukal na daan patungo sa taniman, patuloy na inaalagaan ng mga benepisyaryo ang kanilang mga pananim, kabilang ang carrots at radish. Gumagamit sila ng kabayo upang maihatid ang mga ani sa kanilang bahay bago linisin at dalhin sa barangay upang ibenta.

Sa tulong ng Project LAWA at BINHI, nagiging dagdag na pagkakakitaan ng mga pamilya ang kanilang mga ani, habang napalalakas ang produksyon ng pagkain at pagsusulong ng mas matatag na kabuhayan sa komunidad.

Kalidad na silid-aralan, hatid ng DSWD KALAHI-CIDSS sa 33 bata sa pinakamalayong barangay ng Esperanza

Esperanza, Sultan Kudarat — May permanenteng pasilidad na para sa pagkatuto ang 33 bata sa Barangay Legodon, isa sa pinakamalayong barangay ng Esperanza, matapos makumpleto at pormal na mai-turn over ang Child Development Center (CDC) with Amenities sa ilalim ng DSWD KALAHI-CIDSS KKB-CDD.

Nagkakahalaga ng ₱2,556,491.97 ang proyekto, na may ₱23,500 na counterpart mula sa Barangay Local Government Unit (BLGU). Kabilang sa mga makikinabang ang mga batang mula sa mga komunidad ng Manobo at Teduray.

Kumpleto ang pasilidad sa smart TV, electric fans, mga mesa at upuan, kusina, feeding area, at magkahiwalay na palikuran para sa lalaki at babae. Ayon kay Ruben Sumanggap, miyembro ng Barangay Preparation Team, ilang beses nang lumipat-lipat ng lugar ang mga bata dahil walang regular na silid-aralan. Aniya, magsisilbi ang bagong pasilidad hindi lamang sa kasalukuyang henerasyon kundi maging sa mga susunod pa.

Binigyang-diin naman ni Regional Director Loreto Jr. V. Cabaya na mahalaga ang pagkakaroon ng maayos at permanenteng silid-aralan sa pagsuporta sa maagang edukasyon ng mga bata. Dagdag pa niya, ang mga proyektong nakabatay sa pangangailangan ng komunidad ay pamumuhunan sa kasalukuyan at kinabukasan ng mga bata.

Sa pamamagitan ng pagtutulungan ng komunidad, lokal na pamahalaan, at DSWD KALAHI-CIDSS, inaasahang makatutulong ang bagong pasilidad sa pagbibigay ng mas maayos na kapaligiran para sa pagkatuto at sa pangmatagalang kapakanan ng mga bata sa Barangay Legodon.
