Bogo City officially started its first batch of payouts for the Emergency Cash Transfer (ECT) Response from the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) on October 22, 2025. The initiative aims to provide immediate financial support to families affected by recent calamities and economic hardship across the city.
The morning payout covered beneficiaries from the barangays of San Vicente, LPC, Sto. Niño, Carbon, Cogon, and Bungtod. Residents gathered early at their designated payout sites to claim their assistance, which serves as a vital lifeline for many recovering from disaster impacts.
In the afternoon, the DSWD team continued the distribution in Sambag, Siocon, Anonang Norte, Marangog, and Polambato. Local officials, together with DSWD staff, ensured that the process was orderly, transparent, and fair. Beneficiaries were reminded to bring valid IDs and follow safety and documentation guidelines.
The City Government of Bogo expressed appreciation to the DSWD for its continued partnership in helping affected residents. Additional barangays are expected to receive their payouts in the next rounds of the Emergency Cash Transfer program. This ongoing effort highlights the government’s commitment to social welfare and community resilience in times of crisis.
