SAN ILDEFONSO, Ilocos Sur — Government relief efforts have been stepped up for families affected by flooding in Ilocos Sur, with the Department of Social Welfare and Development Field Office 1 (DSWD FO 1) distributing nearly 500 Family Food Packs (FFPs) in two municipalities.
In a report on Friday (Aug. 21), the DSWD FO 1 said it provided 192 FFPs to families in Sta. Domingo, following flooding caused by rains associated with the southwest monsoon or Habagat and recent storms.
