LGUs, DSWD distribute cash aid under SAP

TRECE MARTIRES, Cavite, Apr. 19 (PIA) — Several local government units in the province had simultaneously commenced distribution of cash aid under the Social Amelioration Program of the national government April 16, 2020.

These were the cities of Imus, Dasmariñas, Tagaytay and the municipalities of Naic, Maragondon, Mendez, Gen. Mariano Alvarez, and Ternate.

The city government of Bacoor was the first to conduct said distribution on April 11, 2020 since they were able to quickly expedite the processing of the Social Amelioration Card forms.

Qualified beneficiaries per household received Php6,500.00 from DSWD personnel while CSWDOs and Barangay officials of LGUs facilitated the distribution.

Distribution were done by clustering of two or three barangays to make distribution properly organized.

During the distribution, PNP personnel helped oversee that Enhanced Quarantine Protocols like social distancing, wearing of face masks and disinfection measures were observed at all times during the activity.
