A significant part of the celebration was the Handog Pag-Asa Program, through which 37 Persons with Disabilities (PWDs), representing each barangay of the Municipality of Moncada, received assistance as a meaningful expression of the Local Government's continuing commitment to the welfare and empowerment of the PWD community.
Under the leadership of Hon. Mayor Ramon Benito M. Aquino, the LGU of Moncada continues to recognize the vital role of persons with disabilities in community development and remains committed to supporting programs and initiatives that promote their rights, dignity, participation, accessibility, and equal opportunities.
The successful celebration is a testament to the strong partnership and shared commitment of the LGU of Moncada, PDAO, EMADAPI, Barangay officials and Leaders, and the PWD community. Through collaboration and sustained advocacy, we continue to work toward a municipality where every person with disability is valued, empowered, and given the opportunity to participate meaningfully in society.
May the Handog Pag-Asa Program serve as a reminder that every act of support can bring hope, every opportunity can create change, and every step toward inclusion can help MAKE THE RIGHTS REAL for all.
๐ Rights First. Legislation Forward.
๐ Building an Inclusive and Empowered Moncada.
๐ Our heartfelt appreciation and gratitude goes to Hon. Mayor Ramon Benito M. Aquino, Hon. Councilor Leslie Lopez, the Local Government Unit of Moncada, PDAO, EMADAPI, the barangay officials and PWD leaders, and everyone who contributed to making this meaningful celebration and program a success.
Your continued support, dedication, and commitment to advancing the rights and welfare of persons with disabilities are deeply valued and appreciated.
