The Senate Spouses Foundation Inc. (SSFI) will provide medical assistance and an early Christmas gift-giving, which includes a special shopping spree for children, Nov. 19 at SM Bacolod.
The activity was discussed during a courtesy call of the 16-member delegation on Mayor Greg Gasataya at the Bacolod Government Center Nov. 17, signaling the launch of a major medical and gift-giving initiative in the city.
The delegation included representatives from the offices of Senate spouses, staff from the Office of Senator Raffy Tulfo, Senate Assist, and the Office of the Sergeant at Arms.
Gasataya expressed profound gratitude for the foundation’s choice of Bacolod as a beneficiary, particularly following the recent challenges posed by a devastating typhoon.
“Our city was recently hit and damaged by a typhoon, and for many of our people, recovery is ongoing,” the mayor said in a city press release. “To have the Senate Spouses Foundation choose Bacolod at this time, bringing medical aid and happiness to our children, is truly heartwarming.”
Known for its extensive history of socio-civic and humanitarian programs, the non-profit SSFI is an organization composed of the wives and spouses of reigning and former Senators of the Philippines. Their mission often focuses on uplifting marginalized sectors, including victims of calamities and those needing medical support.
The visit underscores SSFI’s commitment to supporting disaster-stricken communities and bringing immediate relief and joy where it is most needed.
The city government thanked the entire SSFI delegation and all supporting Senate offices for their compassionate and timely intervention in Bacolod. ||
