BONTOC, Mountain
Province -- “Og-ogfo,” an indigenous
used to describe the culture of “bayanihan” here is being observed in other
parts of the province despite hardship brought by the Covid-19 pandemic.
One of the most affected are the learners living in far-flung areas of Mountain Province.
With the new learning style combining online lessons and printed modules, students in the far barrios struggle to cope with their studies.
With this, municipal police stations coordinated with the Dept. of Education, providing manpower support to ensure timely distribution of learning modules for students.
Through a door-to-door collection and distribution of learning modules in some areas of Sadanga and Sagada, police lessened the burden for teachers and students.
While doing their usual patrolling and information drive in barangays, cops also took time to tutor learners when requested.
Also, the “Adopt-a-family” program started last year to provide immediate help to families in need.
Mountain Province cops purchased and delivered more than P600,000 worth of food and grocery items to 899 beneficiaries, focusing on persons with disabilities, indigent, and elderly identified by the barangay officials.
With their “Libreng Sakay” program, 2,325 individuals were ferried for essential activities.
In partnership with local officials, government agencies and kindhearted individuals, Barangayanihan were set up by police stations.
It was “Barangayanihan for iGolinsan” in Besao while another was brought from Bontoc MPS located in the central barangay to Can-eo, one of the remote barangays in the town.
While in the area, the cops also provided free hair cut to residents.
When the youth of Sabangan put up a pantry themed, “Share what you can and take what you need,” the local police also donated assorted groceries to support initiatives of the youth. A clean-up activity was also conducted in Bontoc with youth volunteers.
“As the province unite as one to heal and rise from the impacts of the health crisis, Mountain Province police director Col. Ruben B. Andiso said police will provide help to communities through Barangayanihan efforts.
