The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) has allocated a total of Php 159,103,007.00 to fund various programs and services in our municipality. This financial support aims to uplift the lives of vulnerable sectors by providing essential assistance and opportunities for sustainable development.
Transparency is a cornerstone of good governance, fostering trust between the government and the people. Our Local Government Unit firmly upholds the principles of openness and accountability, ensuring that these resources are utilized effectively for the benefit of the community. We strongly believe that transparency is not just a practice but it is the right of every individual to be informed. It is always better to know something than to remain unaware, especially when it concerns programs that directly impact people’s lives. By keeping the public well-informed, we encourage active civic engagement and reinforce our dedication to responsible and inclusive governance.
