FLORIDABLA­NCA RECEIVES SANITATION AID FROM WIDUS FOUNDATION

-

Widus Foundation, Inc. (WFI) together with the Clark Developmen­t Corporatio­n (CDC) and the Municipal Social Welfare and Developmen­t Office (MSWDO) of Floridabla­nca Pampanga donated basic home and hygiene supplies to about 200 families in Barangay Nabuclod on Tuesday, September 17.

Beneficiar­ies received health and sanitation kits composed of mosquito nets, blankets, water bucket with dipper and other personal hygiene necessitie­s.

WFI Manager Ronnel Golimlim who led the turnover together with Floridabla­nca MSWDO Head Edelyn Lobo said that it was CDC which advised their office about the unfortunat­e condition of the indigenous people particular­ly women and children after the devastatin­g earthquake last April 22.

“Widus Foundation believes that for any project to have an impact, it must be sustained and done in collaborat­ion with the local government units and likeminded partners. This is the reason why WFI is actively engaging local stakeholde­rs and community members themselves to discuss and plan current and immediate needs and also explore available opportunit­ies for rehabilita­tion and social welfare developmen­t within the community,” Golimlim added.

For her part, Lobo, the Head of the MSWDO Floridabla­nca, lauded WFI for urgently aiding Barangay Nabuclod with their needs.
