Complementary milk feeding in Calatagan

With the temporary suspension of the supplementary feeding, the Club turned to milk feeding as a complement to the full feeding program in Calatagan, Batangas. Calatagan, it will be recalled, was one of the main sites of the Club’s long-running feeding program under Chair PP Freddie Borromeo.Under the new scheme, the Club supplies milk to kids enrolled in the feeding program jointly run by the Zobel Foundation, Calatagan DepEd and Kabisig ng Kalahi.The program benefits 90 undernourished children aged 3-6 years old, who are each given a glass of Anchor milk every day for 120 days or six months. The kids are grouped into three modules, at 30 kids per module. The feeding activity took place at the Florencio D. Firmante Elementary School inBrgy. Sambungan, Calatagan on December 17. Presiding over the activity were Pres. Peter Manzano, Mrs. Lorena Languitan, school principal, and Ms. Grace Ann Joy B. Lira, Program Officer of the Zobel Foundation.
