“SHARE-A-SPARE” FOR FLOOD VICTIMS IN BOTOLAN

Mayor James “Bong” Gordon, Jr. tasked City Administrator Ferdie Magrata to lead the city’s “Share-A-Spare Program” for flood victims in Botolan.

“Department heads will designate program coordinators for their respective offices who will solicit voluntary donations from city employees and then turn-over the collected contributions to the City Social Welfare Development Office (CSWDO). The CSWDO will then facilitate the delivery of donations to beneficiaries,” Magrata explained.

“Your spare clothing, blankets, slippers, towel or canned goods will help alleviate the predicament of our unfortunate kababayans in Botolan,” said Mayor Gordon.

Share-A-Spare Program hopes to raise a lot of spares from more than a thousand of government workers that the city employs.

It can be recalled that thirteen (13) barangays of Botolan were devastated by Typhoon Kiko with thousands evacuated from their homes due to flash floods.
