The office of the Vice President has already distributed a total of 3,220 ‘PagbaBAGo’ containing school supplies and hygiene kits.
The campaign has already benefitted 3,220 students from six remote areas in the country — Limasawa Island in Southern Leyte, Jordan town in Island Province of Guimaras, Caramoan in Camarines Sur, Kidapawan City in North Cotabato, Siguijor Province, Dasmariñas in Cavite and Bangued in Abra.
The Vice President’s ‘PagbaBAGo’ campaign is a program which aims to instill the importance of basic education and nurture the right attitude among young Filipinos to succeed in life.
The ‘PagbaBAGo’ campaign was Vice President Sara Z. Duterte’s program when she was still mayor of Davao City. This became part of the Vice President’s activities during her visits to cities and towns across the country.
Aside from distributing the bags, Duterte also talks to the children’s parents, convincing them to practice responsible parenthood and family planning.
