The Department of Social Welfare and Development in Bicol (DSWD-5), through the Assistance to Individuals in Crisis Situation (AICS), on Monday started distributing nearly PHP2 million in cash assistance to fire-affected families in Pilar, Sorsogon.

In a statement, DSWD-5 Regional Director Norman Laurio said they started handing out PHP10,000 to each of the 190 initially identified families affected by a fire in Purok 1, Barangay Banuyo on March 13.

“We are committed to bringing support to affected communities. The AICS program ensures that those who need assistance the most can receive it, providing relief in the wake of calamities,” Laurio said.

On March 14, the Angels in Red Vests also conducted psychosocial activities, including play therapy for displaced children and interactive discussions for affected families.
