The Provincial Government of Guimaras (PGG), led by Gov. JC Rahman A. Nava and Rep. Ma. Lucille Nava, both medical doctors, provided educational assistance to 695 college students from the municipalities of San Lorenzo and Sibunag on May 31, 2024. Each student received P5,000 in cash.
"If you look at it, we started with a budget of less than P10 million. This year, our budget is over P40 million. In short, if you observe, the amount is increasing, which signifies that there are more students at the college level," Governor Nava said.
The distribution of educational assistance took place at the New Congressional Building in San Miguel, Jordan, Guimaras. The event was facilitated by the Office of the Congresswoman, headed by Atty. Carissa Ann Eñano, and the Department of Social Welfare and Development.
