She shared that her earnings from the 10-day community work will be an added capital for her start-up business on the island.


“Malaking tulong po para sa karagdagang puhunan,” she remarked.


Meanwhile, for Ms. Noemie De Chavez, a full-time mother, the program is a timely aid for their family especially now that her children are back in school after the holiday break.

“Malaking tulong po ito sa aking pamilya. Katulad ko na lamang po na may anak, may napasok na anak. Kumbaga yung sasahurin ko, para po sa mga anak ko,” she uttered.


Aside from Ms. Rodriguez and Ms. De Chavez, the other 1,414 beneficiaries from the island municipality of Tingloy also received their salaries amounting to P 4350.00 each for the services they rendered in cleaning the seaside, highways, streets, and alleys of their community.
