Prepare better future for our children – BSL

IT is not enough to just rear or raise the child; it is also as important that parents prepare a better future for him.

City Mayor Benjamin S. Lim and Vice Mayor Alvin Fernandez along with other city officials expressed full support to the anti-child abuse program of ABS-CBN Foundation’s Bantay Bata 163 during Thursday’s multi-sectoral convention on the detection of child abuse held at the conference room of Region I Medical Center.

“Ang tamang pangangalaga at pagpapalaki sa ating mga anak ay responsibilidad ng magulang, gobyerno at komunidad. Responsibilidad ng gobyerno na ipaabot sa mga magulang ang tamang pangangalaga at pagpapalaki sa mga anak. Hindi sapat na pangalagaan lang ang mga anak kundi dapat din silang ihanda sa magandang kinabukasan”, Lim said.

Councilor Dada Reyna, chairman on the committee on social welfare and development, who initiated the project, said the activity “aims to create a safe and nurturing environment for children that will give them a chance to excel and become responsible members of the community.”

Participants included barangay health workers, social workers, sangguniang barangay officials, Division schools head and personnel, heads of various public and private schools and representatives from various hospitals and other institutions. (CIO/Leziel Cayabyab)
