As deterrent to ‘ATM sangla’ scheme

It’s no brainer that beneficiaries of the 4Ps (Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program) who after being thoroughly screened of their actual financial status to be deserving of cash grants of 4Ps, 600 each month for two elementary and one high school student each month– but released every two months– pawn their cash cards to lenders because  1) their cash grants are not released on time, if at all and 2) because inflation has beat even the middle class, how much more for indigents like them who have to live each day by hand-to-mouth.

4Ps cash grants must be timely

The Department of Social Welfare and Development recently distributed 150 mobile phones to beneficiaries of the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino (4Ps) program in the "REINA" towns (Real, Infanta and Gen. Nakar) of Quezon.

Digital inclusion for 4Ps beneficiaries
