In her message, Assistant Regional Director for Operations Mita G. Lim, duly representing Regional Director Minda B. Brigoli, said that she has high hopes to Pantawid Pamilya personnel in delivering the services to its partner-beneficiaries.

“Our staff in the ground have been working in the dusk of light to deliver the quality service we promised to our partner-beneficiaries. Some of you [Pantawid Pamilya field staff] have crossed islands and hiked miles to conduct monthly Family Development Session (FDS),” Lim said.

“Others walked for days to gather reports and settle irregularities. These scenarios have been your daily life. These somehow have blanketed your personal needs in exchange of making others’ lives improved and moved to self-sufficiency,” she added.

Lim accompanied by Management Audit Analyst Ramil M. Taculod and Pantawid Pamilya Program Coordinator Crislea D. Celeste, expressed that she expects more quality outputs in the program operation for 2016.

“We have seen an improvement in the lives of our partner-beneficiaries and we cannot afford not to sustain this. For 2016, we have to produce more quality outputs. Let us continue to be transparent to our mission,” she closed.
