Press Release - Indigent residents in Llanera, Nueva Ecija given a boost by Bong Go

Senator Christopher "Bong" Go's outreach team, together with GP Partylist Representative Jose Padiernos, conducted a relief operation at the Pag-asa Gym in Barangay Victoria, Llanera, Nueva Ecija on Thursday, October 19.

Go, an adopted son of Nueva Ecija, directed his team to distribute masks, vitamins, shirts, and balls for basketball and volleyball to 1,000 beneficiaries. They also gave away shoes and mobile phones to select recipients.
