The City Information Office said that 152 nonagenarians had been identified as potential beneficiaries – 34 verified in the first quarter and 19 with necessary documentation to claim their benefits.
“This program is a recognition of the invaluable contributions and enduring legacies of our senior citizens who have played a vital role in shaping Surigao City,” the information office said.
The city government is actively encouraging families of nonagenarians, who have not yet claimed the benefit, to contact the City Social Welfare and Development Office for assistance with the documentation process.
