The Pasay City Social Welfare and Development Office will feed more than 500 children with nutritious food for 120 days, Mayor Emi Calixto-Rubiano announced.
Calixto-Rubiano said the beneficiaries are children aged two to four who participated in the supplemental feeding program on October 11.
According to her, her son Luigi Rubiano launched the program under the PasayenYOUTH project at the Mulawin open court in Barangay 182.
The mayor also said the feeding program will be extended to other barangays in the city to ensure that no child is left malnourished.
Rubiano added that the program is also part of her HELP programs (Health and Housing, Education, Economic Growth and Environment, Livelihood and Lifestyle, and Peace and Order, pamilya [family], and palengke), which aim to serve their residents better.
