Differently-abled Ilonggas get livelihood fund from DOLE

Iloilo City (9 December) -- Some 20 women members of the Association of Disabled Persons in Iloilo received a livelihood fund from the Department of Labor and Employment for their Skills training on Cosmetology.

DOLE 6 Regional Director Manuel Roldan gave the check worth P127, 750 to ADP-I President Juvy Ministros during a simple rite as part of the 77th anniversary celebration of DOLE in the region, December 8, 2010.

Ministros said the funding assistance will be used for the training and purchase of kits of their women member beneficiaries.

"This support and assistance will be a great help to our members since this will be a source of livelihood for them", said Ministros.

The check is part of the P1,439,936.00 released by DOLE during the ceremony.
