PCSO readies assistance for ‘Ompong’ victims

Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) General Manager Alexander Balutan said the charity agency is ready to release its calamity fund once local government units have completed their assessment of typhoon-hit areas.

“PCSO is here to help our countrymen who were affected by the typhoon. Every year, PCSO appropriates calamity fund to assist families affected by natural and man-made calamities, just like other assistance we have released before,” Balutan said in a radio interview.
