Maayong adlaw sa tanan nga mga beneficiaries sa UPLIFT.

Base sa impormasyon nga atong nadawat karong adlawa gikan sa usa ka DSWD staff, ang mga beneficiaries nga wala pa maka-access sa ilang UPLIFT assistance dili kinahanglan mabalaka, kay adunay manual o face-to-face payout nga ipahigayon.

Ang eksaktong schedule sa payout ipahibalo kanato kung ma-finalize na kini.

Daghang salamat sa inyong pagsabot ug pagpailob.

TODAY | July 29, 2026

In celebration of the 48th National Disability Rights Week, the Local Government Unit of San Benito successfully held a meaningful activity highlighting this year’s theme, “Rights First, Legislation Forward: Strategic Action for Equal Participation and Inclusive Development”, where PWDs from the six barangays of San Benito proudly showcased their talents, demonstrating their abilities, creativity, and resilience. 💙♿

The celebration also featured an informative discussion on “Health and Wellness for PWDs” covering nutrition, mental health, physical activity, and rehabilitation, delivered by Dr. Rose Ann T. Almoite.

As part of the LGU’s unwavering commitment to the welfare of the PWD sector, all attending PWD beneficiaries received 5 kilograms of rice and their quarterly subsidy amounting to ₱750.

This meaningful celebration was made possible through the leadership and continued support of Hon. Ma. Gina Sumando-Menil, Municipal Mayor, and Hon. Emmanuel Menil, Municipal Vice Mayor, whose dedication to promoting an inclusive and empowered community continues to uplift the lives of persons with disabilities.

Together, let us continue building a municipality where everyone is valued, respected, and given equal opportunities to participate and succeed.
