DSWD continues production of food packs for ongoing disaster ops
The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) is continuously producing family food packs (FFPs) to support ongoing disaster relief operations for Severe Tropical Storm Kristine and Super Typhoon Leon, and to prepare for the anticipated impact of Severe Tropical Storm Marce.
DSWD personnel and volunteers are working around the clock to ensure a steady supply of FFPs for affected families.
The agency aims to produce 20,000 boxes of FFPs daily to meet the demand.
These efforts are being intensified in light of PAGASA's forecast that Severe Tropical Storm Marce may strengthen into a super typhoon as it nears northeastern Luzon.
A shipment of 18,700 FFPs from the Visayas Disaster Resource Center in Mandaue City, Cebu, was sent to the Bicol Region to aid in current relief efforts and anticipate Marce's potential effects.
