Quality health care for the urban poor

THE Presidential Commission for the Urban Poor (PCUP) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Mercury Drug Foundation Inc. (MDFI) to help uplift the lives of marginalized sectors. The MoU highlights the pledge of the foundation to provide free medicines under Oplan Bigay Lunas for the commission's Service Caravans which are set to continue this year.

With this alongside PCUP's 4 Banner Programs, Undersecretary Elpidio Jordan Jr. is positive that the commission will be able to deliver its mandate in support to President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s eight-point economic agenda and the Pambansang Pabahay Para sa Pilipino Program which envisions to build 6 million housing units for the Filipinos.
