These initiative forms part of the

“Our Barangay Bigayan initiatives are
grounded in our commitment to holistic community support. While healthcare is
directly addressed through medical missions and improved sanitation facilities,
our resilience efforts go beyond post-disaster presence. We focus on
capacity-building programs for emergency preparedness and economic stability,
ensuring that our communities are equipped to face any challenge," said
