LINGAYEN---The provincial government has distributed a total of P740, 000 as financial assistance to the 148 families whose houses were totally damaged by the whirlwind (Buhawi) and hailstorm that hit two Pangasinan towns last May and June.
The distribution was held in the municipalities of Bayambang and Urbiztondo last July 11 where the victims received P5,000 eachunder the Emergency Shelter Assistance Programto help them fix their damaged houses.
Provincial Social Welfare and Development Office Chief Emilio Samson said that Gov. Amado T. Espino, Jr. has approved the release of the financial assistance from the province’s calamity fund for the victims in Urbiztondo who were affected by the hailstorm last June 4 and in Bayambang where houses were damaged due to the occurrence of a whirlwind on May 3.
Samson said 112 families in Urbiztondo and 36 families in Bayambang were affected by the whirlwind.
Samson further disclosed that aside from the emergency shelter assistance to the buhawi victims in Bayambang, 500 families also availed of relief goods distributed by the provincial government through the PSWDO.
Romy Abalos of Barangay Dusoc in Bayambang is thankful to the governor whom he said has a big heart for the people and always ready to help.
Antonio Castro of Barangay Malayo in Urbiztondo was likewise very happy in expressing his gratitude to Gov. Espino for having received the assistance as he said that “malaking tulong ito para maipaayos namin ang nasirang bahay namin.”
