NABUNTURAN, Compostela Valley Province, June 18 (PIA) – The National Nutrition Council (NNC) has given cash assistance on Monday to the Municipal Nutrition Action Officers, Municipal Nutrition Coordinators, and Barangay Nutrition Scholars (BNS) from six towns in the province.
NNC-XI regional nutrition program coordinator Ma. Teresa L. Ungson personally handed over to the beneficiaries the cash assistance along with bags and T-Shirts from NNC Central Office and office supplies from NNC-XI during the turn-over ceremony on June 17 at the Provincial Capitol.
The NNC has identified 207 recipients who were victims of typhoon Pablo. They were each given a cash assistance worth P10,000.
Their respective Municipal Nutrition Council Offices of New Bataan, Maragusan, Compostela, Montevista, Monkayo, and Laak were also given office supplies as support to their operation.
Governor Arturo T. Uy through executive assistant Isabelo L. Melendres thanked the NNC for the interventions, saying “It’s such a great help to the nutrition working force of the province.”
Ungson emphasized that despite of what the province has went through because of Typhoon Pablo, it still remains to be strong when it comes to nutrition programs and is still one of the best nutrition implementers in Region XI. (IDS-Comval/Grace Almedilla)
