The UNHCR facilities at the Masepla transitory site in Barangay Mampang were turned over recently to the City Social Welfare and Development Office (CSWDO). The project is also supported by the Australian Government in partnership with the Integrated Resources Development for Tri-People and in collaboration with the local government.
Maria Socorro Rojas, the CSWDO head, said some 130 families will benefit from the humanitarian project. She said Mayor Beng Climaco also ordered the CSWDO to distribute food aid to the beneficiaries of the UNHCR project. “Mayor Beng thanked the UNHCR and all those who are part of the project. This will greatly benefit the victims of the siege,” Rojas said.
Photos released by the CSWDO also showed inauguration of the facilities which include a water pump and communal latrines and attended by the beneficiaries. (Zamboanga Post)
