Typhoon victims get aid via DSWD cash-for-work program
The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) has launched a cash-for-work program to aid individuals impacted by super typhoon Carina and the southwest monsoon.
A total of 200 beneficiaries have been provided temporary employment across two batches, with the first batch starting on Saturday and a second batch on Sunday.
The beneficiaries are assisting in repacking family food packs at the National Resource Operations Center in Pasay City.
This program aims to provide a temporary source of employment and income for affected residents from nearby areas in Metro Manila.
Beneficiaries are receiving a daily wage based on the regional minimum wage rate.
Additionally, food packs were delivered to residents of Tinucan and Santa Inez in Tanay, Rizal, which were previously unreachable due to the typhoon and monsoon.
