Hundreds of Caviteños benefit from Cayetano, DSWD's joint initiative

Three hundred barangay volunteers and ambulant vendors in the province of Cavite received assistance from Senator Alan Peter Cayetano and the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) on Thursday.

Present during the disbursement of the aid in Cavite City were Vice Mayor Raleigh Rusit and Councilor Angel Sarmiento.

"Maraming maraming salamat po sa tulong niyo sa Cavite City," Rusit said, addressing Cayetano.

In Dasmariñas City, the distribution of assistance to ambulant vendors was conducted with the help of Barangay Santo Cristo Kagawad Allan Estrada in Bacoor City.

Among the beneficiaries was 44-year-old Mely Gonowon, who expressed gratitude to the senator for his "readiness to help the needy."
