President Edmund Aquino Leads Relief Efforts for Rizal Communities Affected by Emong and Habagat

Liga ng mga Barangay Rizal Chapter President Edmund Aquino spearheaded the distribution of relief goods to families affected by the flooding caused by Tropical Storm Emong and the southwest monsoon (habagat).

The assistance was made possible through the support of the National Liga ng mga Barangay, headed by President Jessica Dy, which provided rice as part of its relief operations for disaster-stricken communities. With this support, the Rizal Chapter was able to extend much-needed aid to displaced residents across several barangays in the province.

The National Liga expressed its deep appreciation to local officials, volunteers, and frontliners who have been working tirelessly on the ground despite the challenges brought by flooding. Their dedication and courage remain vital in ensuring the safety and welfare of every family in the province.

The combined efforts of the National Liga and its local chapters reaffirm the organization’s commitment to stand with barangay communities during times of calamity, and to continue strengthening disaster preparedness and resilience at the grassroots level.
