Ozamiz City one of the top 5 DSWD PaNata Ko sa Bayan awardees


OZAMIZ CITY (March 9, 2018) - Acting City Mayor Irene E. Luansing receives the Pagkilala sa Natatanging Kontribusyon sa Bayan (PaNata Ko sa Bayan) award from the DSWD in the Gawad Good Convergence Initiative for the local government's Pantawid Kolehiyo Program. This was during the 67th founding anniversary of DSWD March 8, 2018.

Started but left unfunded by the previous administration, Luansing, a staunch women's rights advocate, made sure resources are available to support the college tuition of 86 scholars who are children of 4Ps beneficiary families. This signifies her strong resolve to make education access a key long-term strategy in addressing poverty.

Of 16 entries throughout the country, five made it to the final cut with Ozamiz City on top of the list. (by Ryan Rosauro)
