BAG OF RICE FOR 4P's BENEFICIARY TO BE GIVEN STARTING DECEMBER

Poor families receiving conditional cash transfer (CCT) grants from the government as promised by Pres. Digong will received a bag of rice will be fufill. The Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program provided a P500 monthly stipend for poor families identified by a National Household Targeting System and P900 for the three children of beneficiary families who are in grade school and/or high school.


Five months from now the 4P's beneficiary will receive 40-kilogram rice bags. Next year the members will get 20-kg rice bags monthly from the NFA.


The additional rice subsidy directed by Mr. Duterte would be released through a voucher system being drawn up by DSWD, so beneficiaries could obtain their rice bags from NFA or commercial rice dealers, Hervilla said.

Pres. Duterte said in his SONA; “The beneficiaries of 4Ps shall be made to become independent and self-reliant after they have graduated from the program. We aim to present them with other forms of assistance so they can stand on their own feet,”. He is now fulfilling every words he promised.
