LAGAWE, Ifugao -- Victims of recent Typhoon “Juan” will receive an assistance package of P1.2 million to help them fix their damaged homes, the Provincial Social Welfare and Development Office said.
The provincial government here allocated P1 million from its calamity fund while the League of Governors shared to pool the amount of P200,000 as displaced families await a bigger cash assistance from the national government.
Erlinda Lunag of the PSWDO said each of the 46 families whose houses were totally damaged in this province will receive P10,000 as emergency shelter assistance to help defray the purchase of materials for the construction of their houses.
Lunag said the provincial government will also distribute P5,000 to each household whose residences were partially damaged so that they could begin repairs. -- Dexter See
